Škoda Launches Epiq Small Electric SUV With Competitive Pricing

The 4.17‑metre Epiq is intended to broaden Škoda’s EV range by matching petrol parity on price and using shared VW Group production to cut costs.

Overview

  • Škoda said the Epiq will reach dealers in the coming weeks with a base price of €25,900 and a top Epiq 55 from €32,100.
  • The Epiq 55 is specified with 155 kW (211 PS), a roughly 51.7–52 kWh battery, up to about 440 km WLTP range, DC charging up to 105 kW and 11 kW AC charging plus optional bidirectional charging.
  • Škoda reports more than 30,000 firm orders before dealer deliveries which, combined with an initial marketing focus on the higher‑spec Epiq 55, makes short‑term deliveries unlikely for many customers.
  • The model is built on Volkswagen Group’s front‑wheel‑drive MEB+ platform and is produced on a shared assembly line in Spain alongside VW and Cupra small EVs to save cost and speed rollout.
  • The Epiq offers a 475‑litre trunk, up to 1,345 litres with seats folded, uses animal‑free interior materials called Techtona, and is positioned to bring more buyers into compact electric crossovers.
