Skoda Vision E electric concept interior extolled by Skoda

Skoda Vision E electric concept interior

The Skoda Vision E Concept – a preview of a future electric Skoda – is heading for a Shanghai Motor Show debut, ahead of which Skoda extol its interior.

Just last week we had news of the Skoda Vision E, a 300bhp electric concept heading for a debut this month at the Shanghai Motor Show.

Unfortunately, we only had design sketches from Skoda to show us how the Vision E will look (well, through the prism of the artist’s interpretation), so when we saw a new press release drop in this morning on the Vision E we thought we’d get to see what it looks like. No such lick.

In fact, it’s more of the same design sketch stuff (above) for the Vision E, although this time it’s so Skoda can extol the interior.

The Vision E comes with what Skoda call counter-opening doors, no B-Pillars, four rotatable seats and no central tunnel.

Lots of glass apparently makes the interior bright and transparent (who’d have known?), there are four individual shell seats – slightly elevated – which can be rotated 20 degrees and a cockpit screen plus additional screens for passengers to control comfort and infotainment.

Each door has an integrated phone box for smartphones – which are charged wirelessly – with data and information on the phone transferred to the passenger’s own screen. Oh, and there’s a big boot.

Doubtless the physical Vision E will be less dynamic than the sketches imply, and any production version less dynamic again. But as Skoda’s first electric car it is a big deal.
