About the Skoda Epiq (2026)
Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.
The Epiq is Skoda's smallest electric car so far, sitting below the Elroq on the new VW Group MEB Entry platform shared with the VW ID.2, Cupra Raval and the next Polo EV. Skoda presented the production car on 19 May 2026; production starts mid-2026 (manufacturer figure) at the Volkswagen Group plant in Pamplona, Spain. This is the first Skoda for Western Europe to be built outside Central Europe. First deliveries are planned for Q3 2026.
In practice
Two battery sizes at launch: Epiq 40 with a 37 kWh LFP pack and roughly 305 km WLTP, and Epiq 55 with 52 kWh usable NMC and around 425 km WLTP (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). The Epiq 55 quotes 215 PS, 0-100 km/h in 7.4 seconds; the Epiq 40 quotes 135 PS. DC charging peaks at 105 kW for both, 10-80% in around 23 to 28 minutes (manufacturer figure). Boot volume is 475 litres with a 25 litre frunk; the car is 4.1 metres long. The indicative starting price quoted by the manufacturer is around 25,000 euro, a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.
Points to note
At the reference date the Epiq is in the configurator phase with first deliveries not yet on the road; ratings for reliability, real-world consumption and residual value are by definition not yet supported by data. The 105 kW DC charging peak is on the modest side compared with larger MEB-based models; for frequent long-distance use a bigger battery is probably the better choice. Take a test drive at the official Skoda dealer once demonstrators are available.
