Skoda Epic/Skoda
While the Chinese manufacturers are unveiling more and more sophisticated and expensive electric sedans, the Europeans are waking up and working on affordable electric cars that will be cheaper than equivalent gasoline models.
Citroen has already unveiled the e-C3, on the basis of which Fiat will launch the new Panda.
Volkswagen already presented last year the ID.2 all which will be launched in 2026, and Copra the Harvel, which will be based on it.
Now Skoda is unveiling its version, the Epic, which will be produced with them in Pamplona, Spain from 2025, at a common rate of half a million cars a year.
The target price in Europe of the new crossover should be about 25,000 euros, about half the price of the larger Skoda Aniac.
Meaning: Although by then another increase in the purchase tax on an electric vehicle is expected, the Israeli price should be less than NIS 150,000, a category in which Chinese cars are currently: BYD Dolphin, MG4 in the base version and ORA 03 (formerly Funky Cat).

Small but family/Skoda
This means that the bus will cost as much as the gasoline Aniac, which will be very similar in size.
Skoda is ready to say at
this stage only that the length of the bus will be about 4.1 meters, with a trunk with a volume of 490 liters.
But the dimensions of the ID.2 have already been revealed and from them it can be deduced about those of the Skoda: a length of 4.05 meters, a width of 1.81 meters, a height of 1.53 meters and a wheelbase of 2.6 meters.
The Camik, on the other hand, reaches a length of 4.24 meters, a width of 1.79 meters, a height of 15.6 meters and a wheelbase of 2.65 meters.
The trunk volume reaches 400 liters.
The driver's environment includes a large multimedia screen, with a row of physical operating buttons below it, and a smaller screen that serves as a dashboard.
There is also a floating center console with space for wireless phone charging, deep door pockets, cargo hooks in the trunk and underfloor storage.

All the features of the terrain, except dual drive, in favor of a low price/Skoda
Skoda talks about a range of 400 km, compared to the 450 km that Volkswagen stated for the ID.2, when the Czech version will also be equipped with a base version with a 38 kWh battery and a shortened range, which will be competitive against the Citroen e-C3 with 44 kWh from 320 km, and a long-range version with a 56 kWh battery.
It will also enjoy fast charging at a maximum rate of 125 kW, which should allow charging from 20% to 80% in about 20 minutes.
The Hafik will be one of six new and renewed Skoda electric cars that will be launched in the coming years.
Even before it will come the Alrock, which will replace the Karoq gasoline, a production version of the Vision S7 concept as an electric counterpart to the Kodiak, and a smaller and even cheaper model from the Epic, which will be based on the future Volkswagen ID.1 and compete with the Dacia Spring, the Lipomotor 03 and the BYD Dolphin Minnie, the European name of the seagull.
At the same time, the regular Aniac and the Coupe will undergo facelifts.
