The development of a 100% electric Skoda Octavia is; currently in progress. An Autocar report says that this model will be; ready to arrive on the market by the end of the decade . Before his arrival, however, the car manufacturer will update one last time his current Octavia in 2024.

When this car arrives, it will go. alongside a series of new battery-powered models that will arrive by 2026 including a 7-seater electric SUV anticipated by the Vision 7S concept, a & quot; small & quot; electric based on the joint project with Volkswagen and Cupra and an electric B-SUV that will go; to replace the Fabia.


The CEO of Skoda, Klaus Zellmer , said they are studying an electric Octavia in view of the potential ban on the sale of internal combustion engine cars in Europe in 2035. However, the carmaker's number did not rule out that even with the arrival of the electric model of the Octavia, the endothermic version can still continue to remain on sale in order to attract a greater number of customers. If this were really so, it would mean that the two cars would be built on two different platforms with the battery-powered model probably based on the Volkswagen Group platform .

Since the debut is; expected only in several years, & egrave; It is possible that the electric Skoda does not use the MEB platform but rather the new SSP (Scalable Systems Platform) of the Volkswagen Group which will be & agrave; launched in 2025.

Octavia & egrave; a very important model for Skoda. Its design will not be; therefore distorted with the arrival of the electric version. However, for its look the builder will take & agrave; inspired by the new Modern Solid design language that we have also seen inside the Vision 7S concept car.

All that remains, therefore, is to wait for further information on the development of the future new electric Skoda Octavia.
