Škoda Auto has begun series production of its new all-electric entry model, the Epiq, at Volkswagen Navarra in Pamplona, Spain, writes Brian Byrne, marking the brand’s first-ever vehicle production in the country.
The Epiq is part of the VW group's Electric Urban Car Family, under which four models from CUPRA, Volkswagen and Škoda will be built at Spanish plants. The move helps preserve capacity at Škoda's Czech factories for other high-demand models while expanding its EV lineup.
Positioned in the entry-level electric segment, the Epiq is the brand’s first vehicle based on the new MEB+ platform and the first to fully adopt Škoda’s Modern Solid design language. Together with the upcoming Peaq, it is expected to play a central role in doubling Škoda’s electric portfolio this year.
