Skoda automotive transition and model development

Overview

Skoda is expanding its internal combustion and electric offerings. Building on the Fabia 130 anniversary edition, the company introduced the Fabia 130 Sport, a performance-oriented version based on the Monte Carlo trim. This model features 18-inch alloy wheels, larger black spoilers, a diffuser, and darkened headlights. Mechanically, it utilizes a 177 HP 1.5 TSI engine with updated DSG software and a modified steering system. The Fabia 130 represents one of the final traditional ‘hot hatch’ models before the brand’s transition to fully electric performance compacts.

In the electric segment, Skoda is growing its SUV lineup. The Epiq, a compact B-SUV built on the MEB+ platform, has seen expanded configurations. The Easy 35 serves as a budget-friendly entry point, starting at 25,900 Euro with a 37 kWh LFP battery and a range of up to 325 km. The Sportline trim offers premium styling with black accents and Matrix LED headlights. This trim includes the Sportline 40 with a 37 kWh battery and the Sportline 55, which utilizes a 52 kWh NMC battery to deliver 155 kW and a range of up to 435 km.

The Peaq, a seven-seater electric SUV, is slated for early 2027 deliveries. It features the ‘Modern Solid’ design language and aerodynamic wheels ranging from 19 to 21 inches. UK pricing is expected to start at approximately €61,000 for the SE L 90 trim and reach roughly €70,500 for the SportLine 90x. Looking toward 2027, Skoda plans model facelifts for the Fabia, Octavia, and Kodiaq, alongside hybrid versions to meet Euro 7 standards. Additionally, the Enyaq and Elroq have received updated software and bidirectional charging capabilities.
