Skoda Designer Reimagines 1990s Felicia Fun as Digital EV Concept

The design study celebrates a rare pickup’s legacy with no technical details or production commitment.

Overview

  • French designer Julien Petitseigneur led the revival as part of Skoda’s heritage-focused Icons Get a Makeover initiative.
  • The concept applies Skoda’s Modern Solid language with Vision 7S-inspired lighting, a covered grille, and retro color accents.
  • It switches the original’s 2+2 setup to a two-seat layout with a larger cargo area and adds a full-width digital cockpit styled like CRT monitors.
  • Skoda has released no specifications, and coverage characterizes the design as an EV concept with speculative links to VW Group’s MEB platform and the upcoming Epiq.
  • There are no plans for production, though reporting notes a CEO hint that niche models could be considered if the core lineup performs strongly, and the original Felicia Fun remains a rarity with 4,216 built from 1997 to 2000.
