“For the first time, we’ve used the new brand logo in the form of Škoda lettering on the really wide bonnet ridge,” says Karl Neuhold, head of exterior design, describing one of the new features. Another new feature he can’t not mention is the Tech-Deck Face radiator grille, which conceals the car’s sensors and is visually linked to the edge of the bonnet, which again ends in a curve typical of Škoda cars.

And his colleague Kateřina Vránová from Color & Trim describes the new materials in the interior as well as some new and surprising details. “We’ve replaced the shiny chrome elements with a sleek dark chrome finish,” Vránová mentions one of the sustainability features.

Kateřina Vránová from the Color & Trim department describes the materials and colour schemes used in the Elroq, such as the unique orange seatbelts.

Elroq also uses sustainable leatherette, while the fabric upholstery contains recycled polyester. Orange seat belts form an attractive interior detail in the Lodge version.
