The New e-208 could be a big success for Peugeot.

The boss of Peugeot says that over a quarter of the people that have shown interest so far in the latest 208 model range are specifically interested in the all electric version, the e-208.

He went on to say that “My work is based on facts, and the only fact right now is that we can take the e-208 up to 20 percent of the new 208's production of about 300,000 units a year.”

The 100% electric e-208 is powered by a 100kW motor and a 50kWh battery, delivering a zero-emission range of up to 211 miles (WLTP) from a full charge.

Built on the new e-CMP electrified modular platform, the all-new PEUGEOT e-208 is capable of supporting 100kW rapid charging, achieving an 80% charge in 30 minutes. A full charge, using a 7kWh Wallbox charger at home, will take eight hours.
