PRICE ROQS BUT SPACE CRAMPS YOUR STYLE

Small people in your life? Chances are stress levels are already pretty high.

- 

Dealing with potty training-induced emergency stops, screaming infants and your 150th round of I spy can be a little taxing for the most patient of parents so, do you need to throw an electric car into the mix?

Meet the Elroq, the EV Skoda insists is perfect for families. It's a mid-sized, Ford Focus-sized model with a range of around 265 miles.

WHAT'S NEW?

If you can get past the fact that the name sounds like a Spanish digital radio station, the Elroq is a funky-looking car with clever touches.

It sits under the larger - and we'd argue more family-friendly - Enyaq, and offers silent electric driving at a relatively affordable price point starting at £34,450.

WHAT'S UNDER THE BONNET?

Maybe other parents are less stressed, but the thought of planning EV charging stops into a family holiday fills me with dread. But the Elroq offers three battery sizes to increase ranges depending on which you choose: 55kWh (230 miles), 63kWh (260 miles) and an 82kWh offering a promised 360 miles.

Remember these ranges will be drastically affected by the weather, driving style and how many Pampers you've packed.
