The Epiq is Skoda's smallest and most affordable EV.

It's only offered with a single-motor, front-wheel-drive setup.

The electric crossover comes with three power outputs and two battery types.

Skoda quotes a maximum range of 273 miles (440 kilometers).

Following in the footsteps of the Volkswagen ID. Polo and Cupra Raval, another VW Group brand is bringing back front-wheel-drive EVs. Although not a true successor to the defunct Citigo-e iV, Skoda's inaugural electric car, the new Epiq serves a similar role. The small crossover represents the entry point to the Czech brand’s electric-vehicle lineup, with prices in some European markets comparable to those of the combustion-engine Kamiq.
