Skoda has revealed its new flagship electric SUV, the Peaq, expanding its global EV portfolio with a full-size seven-seater positioned above the Enyaq.
The Peaq is designed to rival premium electric SUVs like the Kia EV9, Hyundai Ioniq 9, and Volvo EX90. More importantly for Indian buyers, Skoda is also evaluating the SUV for a possible launch in the country.
The Peaq will be offered internationally in three variants, catering to different performance and range requirements.
Powertrain options:
The top-spec 90x is also the quickest, completing the 0-100km/h sprint in just 6.7 seconds.
Fast charging is equally impressive, with the larger battery capable of charging from 10 to 80 percent in just 28 minutes using a 199kW DC fast charger.
The Peaq adopts Skoda’s latest Modern Solid design language, giving it a clean yet futuristic appearance.
Key exterior highlights include T-shaped LED lighting, a gloss-black Tech Deck front fascia, flush door handles, and aero-optimised alloy wheels measuring up to 21 inches.
Despite measuring nearly 4.9 metres long, the SUV promises impressive practicality.
Dimensions and practicality:
Inside, the Peaq gets a minimalist cabin with plenty of premium features.
Key features include:
On the safety front, the SUV comes equipped with 10 airbags, a 360-degree camera, ADAS, Auto Park Assist, and integrated washer-equipped wipers.
Skoda has confirmed that the Peaq is under consideration for India.
If approved, the SUV is likely to arrive as a Completely Built Unit (CBU), positioning it as a premium electric flagship for the brand.

The Peaq is easily Skoda’s most ambitious electric SUV yet. It combines long-range, premium features and genuine seven-seat practicality in one package. If it makes it to India with the right specification and pricing, it could emerge as a compelling alternative to the Kia EV9 in the premium electric SUV space.
