Škoda’s first electric seven-seater is also its largest and most spacious SUV yet.
The Peaq offers up to 91 kWh, up to 398 km of WLTP range, and 10-80% charging in 27-28 minutes.
It starts below €50,000 in many markets, but remains forbidden fruit for U.S. buyers.
Skoda has just revealed its flagship offering, the Peaq (pronounced ‘peak’), a fully electric three-row SUV with the brand’s usual blend of qualities. Its vehicles are typically very keenly priced for what they offer and often undercut the equivalent Volkswagen model they are related to.
The Peaq doesn’t have a VW equivalent, but it will start under €50,000 ($56,700), which undercuts rivals such as the Kia EV9. It is slightly shorter than the Kia, but Skoda promises it prioritizes interior room, and the Peaq has a huge interior for its footprint. The base five-seater version has a cavernous 33 cubic feet (935 liters) trunk, and even the three-row seven-seater variant still has a more-than-respectable 10.5 cubic feet (299 liters).
