Following in the footsteps of the Volkswagen ID. Polo and Cupra Raval, another VW Group brand is bringing back front-wheel-drive EVs. Although not a true successor to the defunct Citigo-e iV, Skoda's inaugural electric car, the new Epiq serves a similar role. The small crossover represents the entry point to the Czech brand’s electric-vehicle lineup, with prices in some European markets comparable to those of the combustion-engine Kamiq.
Look beyond the pompous name, and you’ll find the first Skoda to fully embrace a fresh styling approach. The Czech brand calls it “Modern Solid,” and it brings T-shaped lights at both ends of the small crossover. How small? The Epiq measures just 164.2 inches (4171 millimeters) long, 70.8 inches (1798 mm) wide, and 62.2 inches (1581 mm) tall. The generous 102.4-inch (2601-mm) wheelbase is made possible by the dedicated EV underpinnings.
