Skoda confirms name Peaq for production version of Vision 7S
Skoda are going to call their seven-seater electric SUV as the Peaq, having already shown in the Auto Expo 2025 and will be making a global debut in the near future.
New Delhi: The production version of the Skoda Vision 7S concept, shown at the 2025 Auto Expo is confirmed to be named Peaq. Coming as Skoda’s EV flagship, the 7-seater SUV is likely to be the zero-emission equivalent of the Kodiaq. For anecdote purposes, till now Skoda have started every one of the EV SUVs with the letter ‘E’ and ended them with ‘Q’, but Peaq is breaking away from this tradition.
In March 2025, Skoda released images of the forthcoming Peaq, featuring Vision 7S-like LED headlights and tail-lights in the shape of T. These are bridged by Skoda’s signature Tech Deck panel, with separate individual light elements along its upper edge.
At the back, the spoiler comes with a split design, and the ‘SKODA’ lettering on the tailgate is finished in black. Importantly, the concept shown had a lot of firsts from Skoda, including the wordmark-only logo and Modern Solid design language, the latter being applied to the Kylaq as well as Kodiaq.
Skoda with Peaq won’t be taking most of the radical elements from the Vision 7S concept, and features like rear-hinged doors, the absence of a B-pillar, and camera-based rear-view systems are expected to be replaced with more conventional elements. They will be replaced with elements standard with safety and regulatory norms.
There will be some future-looking features, including sport-oriented seats, a distinctive double D-shaped steering wheel, and a rotating central touchscreen capable of switching between portrait and landscape layouts. Other features expected are multifunction smart dials for climate and audio controls, dual wireless charging pads, and a clean digital instrument cluster, all contributing to a tech-focused cabin experience.
Skoda Peaq battery
Much like the brand’s other electric offerings, the Peaq will be underpinned by Volkswagen Group’s modular MEB architecture. Skoda had previously confirmed that the EV will feature an 89kWh battery pack, which will deliver a driving range of more than 600km, and support fast-charging speeds of up to 200kW.
There is not much known about the Peaq, but Skoda have confirmed a global unveiling this summer. When it comes to production and market is something that will be confirmed once the unveiling is done. Peaq is made for versatility at the centre and everyday practicality.
