Unveiling its seven-seater Vision 7S, Skoda has officially revealed the details of its upcoming all-electric SUV concept. The Vision 7S concept which is powered by a 89 kWh battery boasts a range of over 600 kilometers in the WLTP cycle and is capable of fast charging at 200 kW. The concept study is based on the Volkswagen Group’s Modular Electrification Kit (MEB).
The Skoda Vision 7S is the first model to feature the Czech carmaker’s new, striking design language. Along with the Tech-Deck Face at the front end, it sports a solid underbody and aerodynamic roof lines, enhancing its efficiency.
The front of the vehicle also incorporates familiar design elements, such as the signature Skoda line. The so-called Tech‑Deck Face embodies a modern reinterpretation of the familiar Skoda grille. Though it has similar lines, the Tech-Deck Face is significantly flatter and wider than the previous styling. The ribs have been replaced by dark glass that conceals the vehicle’s sensors.
The narrow headlights are positioned further outwards and arranged in two rows one above the other, extending the four-eye light cluster to form a ‘T’. The rear LED lights are also arranged in a ‘T’. The robust bumpers at the front and rear of the Skoda Vision 7S are particularly striking. They are made of durable, recycled tyres. This material is also used for the wheel arch linings and adds a rugged visual highlight.
The minimalistic interior is as spacious as you would expect from Skoda and is enhanced by the combination of dark and light materials. These are leather-free, mostly come from sustainable sources, and are extremely durable thanks to some smart material combinations. One example is the floor of the Vision 7S, which is also made from recycled tyres. The interior trim is also sustainable.
The Vision 7S offers passengers two different interior configurations - Driving and Relaxing, with a rotating central touchscreen and sliding elements. While driving, all the controls are in their ideal position within easy reach for the driver, and the central 14.6-inch touchscreen is oriented vertically for enhanced accessibility and information stacking. In Drive mode, the driver benefits from an advanced AR head-up system displaying the most important driving data and an 8.8-inch digital instrument display for extra information. In Relax mode, the driver can control more sophisticated functions through the integrated touchpad on the lower spoke.
