How the Skoda Peaq takes family luxury to new levels
But when you want a little less sunshine, there’s no need for a conventional physical shade. At the touch of a button, Dynamic Shade Control changes the glass from brilliantly clear to perfectly opaque, almost like something you’d see in a Star Wars film.
Even better, the roof is split into nine independently controlled segments, so you can adjust the opacity of different sections individually. That means rear passengers can block out the light if they’re having a snooze while those in the front can keep the view open.
Sounds by Sonos
When Škoda set out to make the Peaq its most luxurious SUV yet, a premium sound system was always going to be part of the package. So it teamed up with Sonos, the world-renowned audio brand best known for its high-end home sound systems.
The result is a seriously impressive setup, with no fewer than 16 speakers positioned throughout the Peaq’s cabin to create an immersive 3D sound experience. There’s a subwoofer – housed in an 18-litre chamber for deep, resonant bass – a centre-dash speaker and speakers built into the doors and door pillars.
The result is up to 755 watts of rich, detailed sound, with the speakers spread throughout the cabin so that everyone gets to enjoy the music exactly the way they want to.
Park your Peaq, even if you’re not in it
One of the nicest things about modern luxury cars is that they increasingly take care of the little jobs for you, and the Peaq is no exception.
Its Trained Parking system can learn a particular parking manoeuvre after you’ve performed it once, allowing the car to repeat it whenever you return to the same location, such as your driveway. You simply control the accelerator and brake while the Peaq takes care of the steering. And when it’s time to leave, the car can reverse itself out of the saved space, too.
Better still, you don’t have to stay inside the car at all. The Peaq can perform these manoeuvres remotely, recognising a previously saved parking area and prompting you when it’s ready to take over. You can then get out, approve the procedure through the MySkoda app and watch as the car handles the parking shuffle by itself.
