AI generated from our expert reviews

The longer Tesla Model Y is more efficient than the Skoda Elroq, and it offers more room with the back seats folded. When you tackle winding roads, both cars show little body lean, though neither provides much feedback through the steering wheel. At motorway speeds, the Elroq benefits from a distinct lack of wind noise that keeps fatigue at bay on the move. In contrast, this version of the Model Y allows a substantial amount of wind noise to enter the cabin, while its suspension also brings more tyre rumble at high speeds.
