Skoda Reveals the Name of Its Future Flagship

17 January 2026 Liza Medvetskaya 141

Skoda has officially announced the name of its new all-electric seven-seat vehicle, which will become the flagship of the brand’s model range in the coming years. The new model has been named Peaq and will take the top position in the Czech manufacturer’s electric lineup, symbolizing the next stage in the brand’s electrification strategy.

The choice of the name Peaq is no coincidence: it highlights the model’s status as the peak of Skoda’s product portfolio and reflects the company’s ambitions in the segment of large electric SUVs aimed at family audiences and an active lifestyle.

Heritage of the Vision 7S concept and Modern Solid design

Skoda Peaq is a production evolution of ideas first presented in 2022 by the Vision 7S concept car. It was this prototype that introduced the new Modern Solid design philosophy, which is now moving into series production. This approach emphasizes sustainability, functionality, and clean forms, rejecting excessive decorative elements in favor of practicality and durability.

The Peaq’s exterior is expected to retain the concept’s signature features, including massive proportions, emphasized body geometry, and modern lighting adapted to aerodynamic and energy-efficiency requirements.

Space for the family and everyday trips

Skoda’s new electric SUV is being developed with modern families in mind and buyers who need maximum versatility. The seven-seat cabin layout makes Peaq suitable both for daily city driving and for long-distance travel. The interior space, in the brand’s tradition, is focused on passenger comfort and the rational use of every centimeter.

The manufacturer emphasizes that the cabin will combine high functionality with the brand’s Simply Clever solutions, which have long become Skoda’s hallmark. A wide range of driver-assistance systems, a modern multimedia platform, and advanced digital services are expected, matching the level of a flagship model.

Peaq’s place in Skoda’s strategy and premiere timing

Skoda Peaq will be a key element in the expansion of the BEV electric lineup and the brand’s largest electric vehicle. The model is expected to strengthen the brand’s position in the European EV market, where demand is growing for spacious family SUVs with zero emissions.

The global premiere of Skoda Peaq is scheduled for summer 2026. It is expected that by then the company will reveal technical specifications, including range, powertrain output, and fast-charging capabilities, making Peaq a competitor to the largest electric crossovers in its class.
