More horsepower and more range

The big brother helps: The small Peugeot e-208 can use the compact class electrician from the same company - and benefits twice over.

Around three years after the market launch, the electric version of the Peugeot 208 has received a comprehensive upgrade. For the drive, the small car takes over the technology of the big brother 308, which increases the output from the previous 100 kW/136 hp to 115 kW/156 hp. Consumption is said to have dropped from 15,4 to 12 kWh per 100 kilometers, which increases the standard range by almost 11 percent to 400 kilometers. The 50 kWh battery remains unchanged. The market launch is scheduled for 2023. The manufacturer does not name prices, at least 35.350 euros are currently being called for
