Up to Seven Seats and the Brand’s Largest Trunk Space

 Measuring 16.0 feet (4.87 meters) long with a wheelbase of nearly 9.8 feet (three meters), the Peaq is the largest SUV in Škoda's history. The brand's largest SUV offers seven seats and up to 33.0 cubic feet (935 liters) of trunk space. The interior centers around a lounge-like spatial concept, featuring front seats with ventilation and massage functions, ergonomic leg rests, a 16-speaker premium Sonos sound system, and an integrated wellness app.

Modern Design with Brand-New Aerodynamics 

The Peaq adopts the "Modern Solid" design language, introducing several new styling elements to the Škoda lineup. These include flush-mounted door handles, the brand's largest panoramic glass roof to date with Dynamic Shade Control, and a T-shaped light signature at both the front and rear. Despite its size, a variety of aerodynamic enhancements allow the SUV to achieve a drag coefficient of just 0.249 Cd.

Three Powertrain Options with up to 400 Miles of Range

 Built on the MEB+ platform, the Peaq is available with two battery sizes. The smaller battery consists of nine modules, has a gross capacity of 63 kWh (59 kWh net), and can charge from 10 to 80 percent in just 27 minutes. The larger 13-module unit has a gross capacity of 91 kWh (86 kWh net), making it the highest-capacity battery ever used in a Škoda electric vehicle. Charging this unit from 10 to 80 percent takes only 28 minutes. In total, buyers can choose from three powertrain variants with outputs ranging from 150 kW (204 PS) to 220 kW (299 PS), available with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. In addition to one-pedal driving, the model features bidirectional charging (V2L, V2H, and V2G), as well as a next-generation heat pump to further maximize efficiency.

Optional upgrades offered by Škoda include the new Travel Assist 3.0, a 360-degree surround-view camera with a transparent 3D vehicle display, and Intelligent Park Assist. The digital centerpiece of the Škoda Peaq is an advanced, Android-based 13.6-inch infotainment system, marking the first time a Škoda model features a vertically oriented display. The MyŠkoda app enables remote access to vehicle information, EV-specific services, and charging functions, including the management of Škoda Charger wallboxes.
