Connectivity: vertical infotainment display and Sonos premium
sound system set the Peaq apart

› First Škoda vehicle with a vertically mounted display
› 13.6-inch Android-based infotainment system as a digital hub
› 16-speaker custom, Sonos-tuned premium sound system with 755 W output
› MyŠkoda app provides access to vehicle functions and EV‑specific services

Mladá Boleslav, 23 June 2026 – The digital hub of the Škoda Peaq is a modern 13.6‑inch Android‑based infotainment system, used with a vertically mounted display for the first time in a Škoda model. A new sound system developed in collaboration with Sonos is available as an option, delivering an exceptional sound experience. The MyŠkoda app provides remote access to vehicle information, EV‑specific services, and charging functions, including the management of Škoda Charger wallboxes.

13.6-inch Android-based infotainment

The Škoda Peaq is equipped with the latest 13.6‑inch infotainment system, built on the Android platform, with a vertically mounted display for the first time in a Škoda model. Compared with the previous generation, this infotainment system offers a redesigned interface and home screen with a clear grid layout. Expanded personalisation options, favourites, and a system‑wide search function support intuitive operation. In addition to native Škoda applications, users can access third‑party apps, including Spotify and YouTube.

Sonos premium sound system for a rich and balanced listening experience

The Peaq introduces a Sonos premium sound system, available as part of the Relax Package.

The result of close cooperation between Škoda Auto and Sonos, renowned for its premium home audio technology, is a 16‑speaker, 755 W system. Built around components developed specifically for the Peaq, the system adapts the company’s sound technology experience and clear sound reproduction as intended by the artist for in‑car use. A next‑generation A2B booster amplifier and advanced magnetic and membrane technology maximise both efficiency and acoustic performance. A dual subwoofer with a combined output of 200 W and an 18‑litre enclosure delivers deep, controlled bass, while 3D A‑pillar speakers create an immersive, front‑focused soundstage. Rear surround speakers ensure a rich and balanced listening experience, while precisely engineered metal grilles in the front doors optimise sound transmission. The unique sound experience is rounded off by a cutting edge 3D surround algorithm.

Even more practical wireless phone charging

The MyŠkoda app provides access to a wide range of vehicle functions and services. For electric vehicle users, it offers EV‑specific features that simplify everyday use: Remote Charging allows users to start or stop charging manually when plans change. Following a one‑time authorisation within the Powerpass subscription, Plug & Charge enables charging at public charging stations without additional authorisation. The Departure Planner ensures that the vehicle is heated or cooled to the desired temperature at the specified time. For spontaneous journeys, the Online Climate Control function allows remote heating, including seat and steering wheel heating, as well as air‑conditioning.

MyŠkoda app with access to EV-specific features for enhanced everyday practicality

The MyŠkoda app provides access to a selection of vehicle functions and EV‑specific services, making everyday use even more convenient. These include Remote Charging, allowing users to manually start or stop a charging session, and Plug & Charge, which ‑ following one-off authorisation via a Powerpass subscription – enables public charging without any further authentication.

Departure Planner allows users to set a precise departure time and pre‑condition the cabin temperature. Online Climate Control allows users to activate the heating or air‑conditioning at any time, including windscreen heating.

A completely new feature is Camp Mode, designed for users who occasionally spend the night in their car. Activated via the MyŠkoda app, Camp Mode enables the vehicle’s ventilation system to maintain the selected interior temperature throughout the night. This ensures not only a pleasant cabin temperature, but also a continuous supply of fresh air. The system requires sufficient battery charge, with a minimum state of charge of 20 per cent, a 12V starter battery in good condition and a stable internet connection.

A mobile digital key for the Peaq is planned for later this year, enabling drivers to use their iPhone or Android device to lock, unlock, and start the vehicle, while simplifying vehicle sharing between multiple users.
