Best new Skoda cars coming soon

Skoda has several brand-new pure-electric cars arriving over the next few years, and here’s what we know about them so far

Skoda’s small and popular petrol-powered cars – the Fabia, Scala and Kamiq – are all going to be sticking around until the end of the decade, due to the slowdown in demand for electric cars. However the much-loved brand still has EVs of various sizes in the pipeline, and it plans to launch a whole raft in the very near future.

Below are all the key new model launches we know are taking place in 2025, 2026 or in the near future...

Skoda Elroq

The new Skoda Elroq shares a similar ethos and the same platform as its best-selling bigger brother, the Enyaq, but has a dash more appeal as a compact electric SUV. It gives the Hyundai Kona Electric and Kia EV3 something to worry about too, especially as the newcomer’s very attractive starting price of £31,500 undercuts both. 

The entry-level Elroq comes with a 52kWh battery that provides up to 232 miles of range, while the top-spec version can cover up to 360 miles in one go thanks to a much larger 77kWh powerpack. Of course, there are plenty of Skoda’s signature Simply Clever features on board, too, such as umbrellas stashed in the doors and a storage net on the underside of the parcel shelf that provides easy access to charging cables. Genius!

Skoda Enyaq facelift

2025 Skoda Enyaq facelift - studio front 3/4

The Skoda Enyaq has proved enormously popular since it launched in 2020, and has now been updated with a fresh new look, extra tech and more range. The most obvious visual change is the new nose, which has been redesigned around the brand’s Tech Deck Face that was introduced on the Elroq. The new Enyaq might look more robust, but it also cuts through the air better, allowing it to provide up to 365 miles of range – if you go for the coupé version that is. Prices start from exactly £39,000.

Skoda Epiq

The Skoda Epiq will be an even smaller, even more affordable electric SUV than the Elroq, and is set to launch in 2026. A concept model was unveiled last year, and we understand that the design, including the interior, is pretty close to the production version. Skoda CEO Klaus Zellmer described the Epiq to us as “offering a spacious interior within a compact interior, all at an attractive price”. That price, by the way, could be in the region of £22,000.

Skoda all-electric estate

Skoda knows how to make a great estate cars, as demonstrated by the Octavia and Superb wagons, so it’s no surprise that the brand is making an electric family wagon too. It’ll measure roughly 4.7 metres long – around the same length as the Octavia Estate – but should provide more interior space thanks to VW’s MEB EV-dedicated platform.

Skoda entry-level EV

If the Elroq and Epiq’s price tags are still a little rich for you, Skoda is also said to be working on a sub-£20,000 electric car that could be with us as early as 2026. It’s expected to be built in India to help bring the cost down, and may use a shortened version of the MEB Entry platform that the Epiq will sit on, as well as the forthcoming Volkswagen ID.2 and Cupra Raval

Skoda Kodiaq vRS

Of course, it’s not all about EVs at Skoda. The new hot version of our 2024 Large SUV of the Year features the same turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine as the Golf GTI, spitting out 261bhp and 400Nm of torque. It also gets all-wheel drive, so it can hit 62mph in 6.4 seconds, but it’s still a versatile family car, because the new Skoda Kodiaq vRS is only available with seven seats. There’s potential for a high-performance Skoda Superb vRS down the road too.

Skoda Vision 7S

Finally, sitting at the top of Skoda’s EV range will be a large seven-seat SUV based on 2022’s Vision 7S concept that actually introduced the Modern Solid design language and some of the design elements that would be seen on the Elroq. The bold concept also featured a unique ‘6+1’ seating layout, but we’re all but certain the road-going model will have a conventional three-row arrangement, allowing it to serve as a zero-emissions alternative to the award-winning Skoda Kodiaq. But it’ll be even bigger, measuring around 4.9 metres long.
