Overview
The 2025 Peugeot e-2008, particularly in this 54 kWh guise, is a seriously stylish French compact electric SUV that's turning heads in Europe. It aims to blend chic design with everyday practicality and a zippy electric punch. Key highlights for this version include an upgraded battery for enhanced range and a more potent motor. While official US pricing isn't available as it's not sold Stateside, its competitive European positioning suggests it would target buyers looking for a distinctive, premium-feeling small EV. Think of it as a fashionable alternative in a bustling segment.
What's New for 2025?
For the 2025 model year, the e-2008 continues to benefit from its significant 2023 refresh, which is a big deal for this 54 kWh version. This update brought the more energy-dense 54 kWh battery pack (50.8 kWh usable) and a peppier 115 kW (around 154 hp) electric motor. Peugeot also tweaked the styling, giving it an even sharper front end with the latest brand insignia and updated "three-claw" light signatures. Inside, tech often sees incremental improvements, so expect the latest infotainment software for a smoother experience.
Design & Exterior
The Peugeot e-2008 54 kWh is a proper looker, boasting that distinctive French flair. Up front, you get the signature "lion claw" LED daytime running lights and a bold, body-colored grille that screams EV. It’s got a confident, mini-SUV stance that’s both cute and chunky. Dimensions come in at 169.4 inches long, 69.9 inches wide (excluding mirrors), and 60 inches tall, making it perfectly sized for city life. The overall design feels modern and upscale, setting it apart from more conventionally styled rivals.
Interior, Tech & Cargo
Step inside the e-2008, and you're greeted by Peugeot's unique i-Cockpit: a small steering wheel with a digital driver's display perched above it. It feels quite futuristic! Material quality is generally impressive for the class, with a focus on interesting textures. Passenger space is decent for a compact SUV, though rear legroom is more suited for kids on longer trips. Cargo-wise, you get a practical 15.3 cubic feet in the trunk, expanding to a useful 51.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. No frunk here, though. A central touchscreen, likely 10 inches, handles infotainment with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Performance & Driving Experience
This e-2008 with its 54 kWh battery isn't just about looks; it's got a bit of poke too! The front-wheel-drive setup is powered by a single Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor delivering 115 kW (around 154 hp) and a handy 192 lb-ft of torque. That’s good for a 0-60 mph dash in a respectable 8.7 seconds – plenty zippy for city driving and highway merges. Expect a comfortable ride that soaks up bumps well, combined with light, agile handling. Multiple regenerative braking modes should allow for some one-pedal driving sensations.
Range, Battery & Charging
The e-2008 54 kWh packs a 50.8 kWh usable battery, delivering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of 214 miles, which is solid for daily duties. Efficiency is rated at a decent 4.21 mi/kWh. For charging, its 400V architecture supports up to 100 kW DC fast charging, meaning a 10-80% top-up could take around 30 minutes. At home, the standard 7.4 kW on-board AC charger will replenish the battery overnight in about 7-8 hours. While its European counterpart uses CCS Type 2, a US version would likely sport a CCS Type 1 or NACS port.
Safety & Driver-Assistance Features
While the Peugeot e-2008 isn't officially crash-tested by NHTSA or IIHS due to its absence from the US market, its sibling, the Peugeot 2008, earned a 4-star rating from Euro NCAP in 2019 (5 stars with the optional safety pack). You can expect a suite of modern driver aids. Standard kit likely includes autonomous emergency braking, lane keeping assist, and traffic sign recognition. Higher trims or optional packs in Europe offer adaptive cruise control with stop & go, blind-spot monitoring, and enhanced park assist features.
Warranty & Maintenance Coverage
If the Peugeot e-2008 were sold in the US, warranty coverage would likely mirror the brand's typical offerings in other markets. This usually means a basic vehicle warranty of around 3 years/60,000 miles. Critically for an EV, the high-voltage battery often gets an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty, guaranteeing at least 70% of its original capacity. Powertrain components would be covered similarly. Peugeot doesn't typically offer extensive complimentary maintenance in most regions, so routine servicing would be expected. Reliability for modern Peugeots has generally improved.
