Skoda Peaq seven-seater revealed


Skoda has fully revealed its new Peaq electric seven-seater model, arriving in Ireland next January.

The Peaq will be available with two battery capacities, 63 kWh and 91 kWh, the latter of which is the largest-capacity battery ever fitted to any Skoda electric vehicle.

Three powertrain variants will be available, with outputs ranging from 150 kW to 220 kW and a choice of rear-wheel and all-wheel drive. For even greater driving comfort, the Peaq supports one-pedal driving. The Peaq facilitates bidirectional charging, allowing energy stored in the battery to be used outside the vehicle.

The Peaq is the first Skoda model to offer a panoramic roof, while flush door handles also make an appearance for the first time.

The interior is said to offer a spacious, lounge-like design for up to seven people. In the seven-seat configuration, it combines generous cabin space with 890-litres of luggage capacity, reduced to 299-litres of capacity when the third row seating is erected. A 37-litre frunk provides additional storage.

The main control centre of the Peaq is the latest infotainment system, built on the Android platform and equipped with a vertically mounted 13.6-inch display, the first of its kind in a Skoda model.

Also making its debut is a 16-speaker Sonos sound experience. The 25W wireless charging for two phones has also been enhanced with illumination and integrated magnets.

The Peaq comes with a comprehensive suite of assistance systems. Ten airbags, including a centre airbag and rear side airbags, are standard.

The Sportline variant will be available from launch and is defined by glossy black exterior accents and lettering. It is the only version offering optional two-tone paintwork with a black roof.

Prices and final specifications for Ireland will be announced in August with early ordering advised.

First Skoda Peaq vehicles for customers will arrive in Ireland from January 2027.
