AI generated from our expert reviews

On winding routes, neither the Skoda Elroq nor the Volvo XC60 delivers much steering feel or feedback. Through bends, the Elroq manages remarkably little body lean, whereas the XC60 leans noticeably if you push it hard into a corner on a country road. Passenger space in the back separates them further: the XC60 provides enough room for three adults to sit alongside each other without feeling over-familiar, whereas the Elroq is not really wide enough for three burly adults other than for short journeys. If you need to pull a trailer, the XC60 can also tow heavier loads than the Elroq.
