Skoda will bring the Peaq into production as a full-size electric SUV based on the 2022 Vision 7S concept, and the company plans a full reveal later this year. The Peaq is the fourth EV in Skoda’s lineup and will be offered in five- and seven-seat configurations.
The Peaq measures 4,874 mm long with a 2,965 mm wheelbase and is taller than the Kodiaq, with a 1,664 mm height; luggage capacity is 1,010 liters in five-seat form and 299 liters with the third row in place. Even the base model rides on 19-inch wheels, with options up to 21 inches.
Skoda will offer two battery options: 63 kWh and 91 kWh, rated for more than 460 km and 600 km respectively, with DC fast charging from 10 to 80 percent taking about 28 minutes. Single-motor versions will produce 201 hp or 282 hp while the dual-motor flagship makes 295 hp and accelerates to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds.
The Peaq introduces several firsts for Skoda, including wiper blades with built-in washers and the largest panoramic glass roof the brand has fitted, featuring a nine-section electrochromic Dynamic Shade Control. Skoda says electronic speed limits will cap higher trims at 180 km/h and the base model at 160 km/h.
