AI generated from our expert reviews

The Skoda Elroq is more efficient than the Jaecoo E5. When you take them onto twisty roads, you will find they handle bends quite differently: the Jaecoo E5 leans a lot in corners, whereas the Skoda Elroq has remarkably little body lean on winding roads for a car with soft suspension. Step inside, and you will notice that both cars have cheap materials placed lower down in their cabins, such as lower on the centre console or moving lower on the dashboard.
