Granted, alongside its three-box saloons and the X-series range of 4x4s, both the i3 and i8 appeared to be from a time only the Bavarian engineers had visited; one even beyond our own in the mid-2020s, from over a decade in the past, but it wasn’t as if the company didn’t have previous form when it came to delivering the unexpected.

Skoda has revealed its latest electric model to join its vRS family, the Elroq vRS. Producing 335bhp and with a 0-62 mph time of just 5.4 seconds, it's the fastest accelerating Skoda you can buy. It's probably also the most performant car of its type given there's no sign yet of a Kia EV3 GT or a Ford Explorer ST and there are no indications Alpine is set to get its mits on the Megane or Scenic E-Tech.
