Its MEB+ platform is one which is already being used on the CUPRA Raval, alongside cars like the Volkswagen ID.Cross and ID.Polo.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This clever platform is an extension on the successful MEB setup that we\u2019ve seen used for cars like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/volkswagen\/id-3\/2026-5dr-326ps-79kwh-gtx-fire-and-ice-au?personal=1\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/volkswagen\/id-3\/2026-5dr-326ps-79kwh-gtx-fire-and-ice-au?personal=1\">Volkswagen ID.3<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/cupra\/born\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/cupra\/born\">CUPRA Born<\/a> and even Skoda\u2019s own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/skoda\/enyaq\/enyaq-82kwh-210kw-85x-sportline-au-4x4?type=2\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/skoda\/enyaq\/enyaq-82kwh-210kw-85x-sportline-au-4x4?type=2\">Enyaq<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/skoda\/elroq\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing\/skoda\/elroq\">Elroq<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about battery and range?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though the Epiq may be compact in size, it\u2019s aiming to deliver big-car range. From launch, there will be two battery sizes on offer &#8211; 37kWh and 52kWh &#8211; which will deliver respective ranges of 190 and 272 miles. The good news is that thanks to rapid charging, you should be able to take either battery from 10 to 80 per cent in around 25 minutes. The larger-battery car can also accommodate bi-directional charging, meaning that, in the future, you\u2019ll be able to use it to \u2018store\u2019 energy which can later be fed back into the grid, or used to power a home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The smaller-battery Epiq is linked to a 132bhp electric motor, while the larger battery car uses a more powerful 208bhp motor. Both are front-wheel-drive and, for now, there are no all-wheel-drive models &#8211; though we\u2019re sure that these will be added at a later date.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16333-epiq-selection-frunk-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is there much technology on board?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we\u2019ve come to expect from Skoda, equipment levels will be very good with the Epiq. Standard SE L trims will get 18-inch alloy wheels, a 13-inch infotainment system and wireless smartphone connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A five-inch digital cockpit, climate control and adaptive cruise control will also be featured as standard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Head up to Edition-grade cars and you\u2019ll add satellite navigation, heated front seats and steering wheel and two-zone climate control. Wireless smartphone charging will help to keep devices topped up without the need for a cable, while a mobile digital key service means you\u2019ll be able to unlock your Epiq using just your smartphone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-1024x685.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-185x125.jpg 185w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-1536x1028.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16331-epiq-selection-steering-wheel-2048x1370.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What cars will it rival?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, some of the key rivals for the Epiq come from inside the Volkswagen Group itself. You\u2019d be looking at the Cupra Raval, or even the upcoming ID.Cross from Volkswagen. However, if you were to look outside the Volkswagen Group, then options like the Kia EV2 and Hyundai Inster also come into play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, here at UK Carline, we\u2019ve got all of the very latest electric car options, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing#staffPicks\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/car-leasing#staffPicks\">check out our current deals<\/a> to see which one could work for you today.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukcarline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Original-16337-epiq-selection-34rear-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about price?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve already got a good insight into the price of the Skoda Epiq. Things will kick off at a competitive \u00a324,950, which means that it matches the petrol-powered Skoda Kamiq in terms of price. The higher-spec Edition will come in at \u00a327,700, but, of course, this model brings a lot more equipment for the money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The larger-battery models will command a \u00a32,750 premium over smaller-battery cars, too. At launch, a special \u2018First Edition\u2019 car will also be launched, but prices for this model are yet to be confirmed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Skoda Epiq is due to arrive in the UK this summer, so check out the UK Carline page where we\u2019ll be sure to have the very best deals on this exciting new EV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Epiq uses the same platform as the CUPRA Raval and VW ID.Polo, but offers loads of features and differences.\u00a0 Skoda is the latest brand to introduce a brand new electric car.
