Škoda Auto has released the first interior sketches of the upcoming Epiq, its most affordable all-electric compact SUV, ahead of the model’s world premiere on 19 May 2026, writes Brian Byrne. The Epiq is the first Škoda production model to fully showcase the brand’s Modern Solid design language.
The sketch shows a clean, angular interior focused on simplicity, space and ease of use. A horizontal layout replaces the traditional dashboard, giving the cabin a more open feel.
Part of Volkswagen Group’s European Urban Car Family, the Epiq is expected to play an important role in expanding electric mobility to more customers and in helping Škoda double its battery-electric vehicle portfolio in 2026.
In the first quarter of 2026, Škoda Auto became Europe’s second best-selling car brand, delivering 222,500 vehicles (+17.1%) and outperforming the overall market. Worldwide deliveries to customers increased 14.0% year on year to 271,900 vehicles, driven mainly by the all-electric Elroq and Enyaq, which ranked second and fifth among Europe’s best-selling BEVs.
