Skoda Peaq 7-Seater EV Debuts: 647 km Range, 91 kWh Battery & Specs

Skoda has officially lifted the veil off its latest electric flagship SUV, the Skoda PEAQ, marking a significant milestone in the brand's electrification journey. Designed to offer unparalleled space, comfort, and an impressive electric range, the PEAQ is set to redefine the family SUV segment. This article delves into the key features, specifications, and the overall vision behind Skoda's most ambitious electric vehicle to date.

A Bold Statement in Design and Presence

The Skoda PEAQ embodies a robust yet functional design philosophy, characterized by clean surfaces, strong proportions, and a commanding presence. Its near-five-meter length is accentuated by an illuminated Tech-Deck Face and flush door handles, contributing to its aerodynamic efficiency and modern aesthetic. The design language, inspired by the Vision 7S concept, signals a new direction for Skoda's electric vehicle lineup.

Interior: A Sanctuary of Comfort and Technology

Step inside the PEAQ, and you are greeted by an interior that redefines the "mobile living room" concept. Available in five or seven-seat configurations, the PEAQ offers generous space and a light-filled atmosphere, making every journey a comfortable experience. Premium comfort features include ergonomic massage seats with integrated leg rests and an immersive 3D sound system by Sonos. The expansive panoramic roof, featuring innovative Dynamic Shade Control with nine adjustable segments, further enhances the cabin's ambiance.

Technologically, the PEAQ is equipped with an intuitive 13.6-inch vertical screen and an augmented-reality head-up display, providing clear information and smart connectivity for an effortless driving experience. Skoda has also integrated several 'Simply Clever' details, such as wet-arm windscreen wipers, a folding table in the center console, a sustainable umbrella in the driver's door, and a 'frunk' (front trunk) for additional storage.

Electric Performance and Range

One of the most compelling aspects of the Skoda PEAQ is its impressive electric performance and range. With three powertrain variants and an exceptional range of over 600 km (more than 640 kilometers for the Peaq 90 variant) , range anxiety becomes a thing of the past. The PEAQ is built on the proven Modular Electrification Toolkit (MEB+) and offers a choice of two battery capacities:

• 63 kWh (59 kWh net): Comprising nine modules, this battery can charge from 10% to 80% in just 27 minutes.

  
  

• 91 kWh (86 kWh net): This larger, 13-module unit is the biggest capacity battery ever fitted in a Skoda electric vehicle and charges from 10% to 80% in 28 minutes .

Powertrain Variants:

Variant	Battery Capacity	Drive Type	Max Output	0-100 km/h	Top Speed	Range (WLTP)
Peaq 60	63 kWh	Rear-wheel	150 kW	8.4 s	160 km/h	> 450 km
Peaq 90	91 kWh	Rear-wheel	210 kW	7.1 s	180 km/h	> 640 km
Peaq 90x	91 kWh	All-wheel	220 kW	6.7 s	180 km/h	> 610 km

All variants feature a permanent-magnet synchronous motor on the rear axle, with the Peaq 90x adding an asynchronous electric motor on the front axle for all-wheel drive capability. The PEAQ also supports one-pedal driving for enhanced efficiency and ease of use in urban traffic.

Bidirectional Charging and Advanced Features

The Skoda PEAQ is not just a mode of transport; it's a mobile power bank. With bidirectional charging, the vehicle can supply energy externally via V2L (Vehicle-to-Load), making it ideal for powering e-bikes or caravans during weekend getaways. When paired with the Ambibox DC Wallbox from MOON POWER, it also supports V2H (Vehicle-to-Home) and V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid) functionalities, allowing it to supply energy to buildings or even feed it back into the electricity grid .

An optional next-generation heat pump further enhances efficiency, particularly in cold weather, by improving the electric range. The braking system comprises MacPherson strut suspension with front disc brakes and a five-link rear suspension with reliable drum brakes, designed to leverage recuperation for the majority of braking needs.

The Sportline Variant: Dynamic and Distinctive

For those seeking a more dynamic driving experience, the Skoda PEAQ Sportline offers exclusive design details, a sophisticated black-accented aesthetic, and a driver-centric cabin. This variant is crafted to bring a sharper sense of purpose to every journey, combining sporty elegance with the PEAQ's inherent practicality.

Pricing and Availability

While specific pricing details are still emerging, reports suggest the Skoda PEAQ will be priced from approximately £51,980 . The official unveiling took place on June 23, 2026, with the vehicle expected to expand Skoda's portfolio in mid-2026. More details on market-specific availability will likely follow.
