Be that as it may, the Epiq is anticipated to be revealed in the second half of 2025, making it a 2026 model.

In any case, the Epiq is believed to come in two front-drive flavors at launch. The lesser model is rumored to pack 118 kilowatts or 158 mechanical horsepower (160 ps), whereas the punchier option could get 140 kilowatts or 188 horses (190 ps).</p><p>These yet-unconfirmed output levels further indicate two battery choices.

As for direct current fast charging, make that up to 125 kilowatts.</p><p>Skoda estimates more than 400 kilometers (249 miles) from its entry-level electric sport utility vehicle, whose trunk promises 490 liters or 17.3 cubic feet. Incredible cargo capacity for such a small vehicle, but then again, it's also natural given the switch from rear drive (and rear drum brakes) for the Elroq and Enyaq to front drive for the Epiq</p>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">533642</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Jul 2025 13:20:14 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
