Nouveau Skoda Epiq (2026) : quelle autonomie proposée ?
The Skoda Epiq is built on the
new MEB+ platform. This architecture emphasizes
a front‑wheel drive, a reduced weight, and a
more efficient energy use. The model targets roughly
440 km of range (WLTP) depending on the version, with a
DC fast charging capability that lets you move from
10% to 80% in about 24 minutes, and a
standard 11 kW AC charging capability. It also includes
bidirectional charging, able to power external devices
or a local grid, depending on the infrastructure.
The Epiq will be offered with two battery sizes
and three power levels, all as front‑wheel drive. It also introduces the One Pedal mode, which lets you manage acceleration and braking with a single pedal thanks to energy recuperation, whose intensity is adjustable.
The Epiq marks a significant milestone for Skoda as the
first production vehicle to fully embrace the “Modern Solid” design language. The styling stands out for its clean lines, strong visual sobriety, and a new lighting signature in the shape of a T. The front features a
Tech-Deck glossy black fascia, while the aerodynamic work helps achieve a
drag coefficient of 0.275, contributing to lower consumption.
