2027 Skoda Peaq revealed with seven seats and 647km of range

Key takeaways

• 2027 Skoda Peaq arrives in Australia in 2027 with up to 647km WLTP range
• Three variants offered: Peaq 60, Peaq 90 and all-wheel drive Peaq 90x
• Australian pricing expected to start in the low-to-mid $70,000s before on-road costs

Skoda has officially revealed the 2027 Peaq, its biggest and most capable electric model to date. Confirmed for Australian showrooms in 2027, the seven-seat SUV slots above the Enyaq in Skoda's lineup and targets the Kia EV9 and Hyundai Ioniq 9 directly.

At 4,874mm long with a wheelbase of 2,965mm, the 2027 Skoda Peaq is the largest SUV the Czech brand has ever produced, sitting 116mm longer than the petrol-powered Kodiaq it runs alongside in the range.

2027 Skoda Peaq specs and performance

Three variants are on offer, all riding on Volkswagen Group's updated MEB+ platform and using nickel-manganese-cobalt battery chemistry.

DC fast charging on the Peaq 60 tops out at 160kW, with a 10–80% charge taking 27 minutes. The Peaq 90 and 90x step up to 199kW, hitting 10–80% in 28 minutes. Towing capacity is 1,800kg braked for the 60 and 90, and 2,000kg for the 90x, a practical edge over some rivals.

All three variants support one-pedal driving via the B drive mode, and bidirectional charging is standard across the range, covering V2L (vehicle-to-load), V2H (vehicle-to-home) and V2G (vehicle-to-grid) functionality.

Practicality and interior

Space is the Peaq's strongest card. The seven-seat configuration leaves 299 litres of boot space behind the third row, which is tight but usable. Opt for the five-seat version and that grows to 935 litres, the most of any Skoda model. A 37-litre frunk up front swallows charging cables without eating into boot space.

The second-row wheelbase stretch pays off in legroom — even taller adults should be comfortable back there. Third-row space is better suited to children and younger teens unless the middle row is slid forward to compromise.

Inside, a 13.6-inch vertical Android touchscreen makes its Skoda debut, paired with actual physical buttons on the centre console for temperature and fan speed — a welcome call-back to usability over novelty. A 10-inch digital driver display is standard, with an optional augmented-reality head-up display available.

The optional Relax Package adds massaging and ventilated front seats, electrically adjustable legrests, a folding table built into the centre console, and a Sonos-developed 16-speaker, 755W sound system. Illuminated Qi2 wireless charging for two phones at up to 25W, with integrated magnets to hold them in position, is also on the spec sheet.

2027 Skoda Peaq: a stack of brand firsts

The Peaq debuts several features new to Skoda. Flush door handles retract into the bodywork when the car is locked or moving and extend electrically as you approach. A panoramic electrochromic roof covering more than 2.1 square metres spans the cabin in nine individually controllable segments.

Windscreen wipers with integrated washers reduce fluid consumption by around 50% compared to conventional jets, according to Skoda. Ten airbags are standard, including a centre airbag and rear side bags. The optional Travel Assist 3.0 system — Skoda's most advanced — responds to traffic lights and includes a lane-change assist function.

A drag coefficient of 0.249 is impressive for a vehicle this size, achieved through active front shutters, flush handles, an aero underbody and optimised rear spoiler design.

2027 Skoda Peaq pricing in Australia

Local pricing hasn't been confirmed. With the Enyaq currently ranging from $50,990 to $76,490 before on-road costs, the Peaq is realistically expected to open somewhere in the low-to-mid $70,000s at minimum — putting it in direct competition with the Kia EV9 and Hyundai Ioniq 9 on price as well as spec.

Australian specifications are yet to be locked in. What is confirmed is a 2027 on-sale date, which gives buyers a clear timeline to plan around.

With 647km of range, a 2,000kg tow rating and enough space to carry seven people in genuine comfort, the Peaq makes a strong first impression. Whether it can close the gap to the established names in this segment will come down to how Skoda prices it when local orders open.
