The latest round of Euro NCAP evaluations confirms Skoda’s strong commitment to safety.
The Skoda Elroq, the manufacturer’s new compact electric SUV, has just received the maximum rating of five stars in the renowned European program. The Enyaq and Octavia, already well-established models, maintain their excellent ratings despite raised criteria for the 2025 edition.
The assessment of the Skoda Elroq highlights its high level of protection for adult occupants, with a score of 90%, significantly above the threshold required for five stars. This result stems from a series of tests including frontal collisions at 50 km/h, a side impact at 60 km/h, and a pole test at 32 km/h. The review also includes protection against whiplash in the event of a rear-end collision, as well as the performance of post-collision systems, such as multi-collision automatic braking.
A good balance of protection
In the category dedicated to child occupants, the Elroq achieves 87%. The measurements taken on mannequins during frontal and lateral tests show a very low level of stress. The model also earns full points related to compatibility and installation of child seats, an important criterion for families.
The evaluation regarding vulnerable road users awards the model 77%. The tests verify the effectiveness of pedestrian, cyclist, and motorcyclist detection systems, both day and night. The door opening assistance, which can warn an occupant if a two-wheeler approaches from behind, is among the new features evaluated. When an accident is unavoidable, impact tests measure the risk of injury to various body areas.
Lastly, in the area of safety assistance: the Elroq scores 78%, particularly thanks to its collision avoidance systems and lane-keeping assistance, the latter receiving the maximum rating.
