With the new Peaq, Škoda has unveiled its largest all-electric SUV to date and its first-ever model in the full-size electric SUV segment. The brand's new flagship offers up to seven seats, a range of over 640 kilometers (approx. 400 miles), and joins the Epiq to power the brand’s electric vehicle offensive.

Measuring 4.87 meters (16 feet) in length, boasting up to 935 liters of cargo space, and featuring a generous interior, the Peaq prioritizes comfort with ventilated massaging front seats, a Sonos sound system, and an integrated wellness concept. The new "Modern Solid" design language includes flush door handles, a large panoramic glass roof, and an aerodynamically optimized body with a drag coefficient ($c_W$) of 0.249.

Built on the MEB+ platform, the SUV offers a choice of three powertrain variants ranging from 150 to 220 kW (204 to 299 hp) and two battery sizes. The top-tier version delivers a range of up to 640 kilometers, while the battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent in about 28 minutes. Additionally, the Peaq supports one-pedal driving as well as bidirectional charging (V2L, V2H, and V2G).

Standard equipment includes advanced driver assistance systems, with Travel Assist 3.0 available as an option, alongside a new Android-based infotainment system featuring a 13.6-inch display and expanded connectivity and charging functions via the MyŠkoda app.

Renault has given the all-electric Megane E-Tech a comprehensive overhaul, equipping the compact EV with a fresh design, a more powerful LFP battery, and enhanced connectivity and comfort features.

Key updates include a redesigned front end with a new light signature, updated taillights, and the addition of the Techno and Esprit Alpine trim lines. The new 67 kWh LFP battery features a cell-to-pack architecture that enables ranges of up to 500 kilometers (approx. 310 miles) and supports DC fast charging at up to 165 kW. The 160 kW (218 hp) rare-earth-free electric motor remains unchanged.

Inside, the OpenR Link system powered by Google services will now feature the Google Gemini voice assistant, personalized vehicle settings via driver recognition, a Smart Driving Mode, one-pedal driving, and Qi2-standard wireless charging. The EV ecosystem is further enhanced by an improved EV route planner, battery preconditioning, bidirectional charging (V2L), and the "my rnlt" smartphone app.

In addition, Renault is upgrading its safety equipment with new assistance systems such as an Emergency Stop Assist, Safety Score, Safety Coach, and Safety Monitor. A total of more than 30 driver assistance systems are available. The Megane E-Tech will continue to be manufactured at Renault’s ElectriCity plant in Douai, France.

Bosch eBike Systems is expanding its urban cycling portfolio by introducing the Hub Line, marking the first time a hub motor has been integrated into the Bosch Smart System. Developed specifically for eUrban bikes, the drive unit delivers 45 Nm of torque, weighs roughly 2.3 kilograms (5 lbs), and completely disengages at speeds above 25 km/h (15.5 mph) to allow for virtually resistance-free riding. As part of the Smart System, the motor supports features like navigation, theft protection, over-the-air updates, and eShift electronic gear shifting.

To complement the motor, Bosch is introducing the new PowerTube 360. With a capacity of 360 Wh and a weight of around 2.1 kilograms (4.6 lbs), it is the slimmest battery in the Smart System lineup to date and is designed to provide ranges of over 80 kilometers (approx. 50 miles). The system can also be expanded as needed using the PowerMore 250 range extender.

Bosch is also expanding its safety and control solutions. A new ConnectModule combines GPS, cellular connectivity, and Bluetooth Low Energy for more precise vehicle tracking. Also new are the compact LED Controller with a USB-C port and the Intuvia 200, featuring a 2.4-inch grayscale display for simple, highly readable operation.

Canyon has unveiled new technologies aimed at improving cyclist safety through artificial intelligence, connectivity, and digital assistance systems. The highlights include the Stingr Smart Helmet with a head-up display, the Canyon Predict Bike featuring AI-driven hazard prediction, and the Roadlite:ON V2X with vehicle-to-infrastructure communication.

The Stingr Smart Helmet projects safety-relevant information directly into the rider’s line of sight, combining visual cues with acoustic and haptic warnings. It also provides performance data, integrated heart-rate monitoring, voice control, and connectivity for external sensors.

The Canyon Predict Bike utilizes cameras, radar, and edge AI to spot potential hazards early on. Local data processing analyzes riding and environmental data in real time, supporting the rider with features like distance, terrain, and group-riding assistants—all without requiring a cloud connection.

With the Roadlite:ON V2X, Canyon is bringing Vehicle-to-Everything technology to a near-production e-bike for the first time. The system enables communication between the bicycle, other vehicles, and future smart traffic infrastructure. This allows road users to warn one another of hazards, even when there is no direct line of sight. The safety concept is rounded out by radar, a dynamic brake light, and the potential for smart features like a "green wave" traffic signal priority system for cyclists.
