Video Summary
Here is the requested summary of the electric car review:The car being reviewed is the new Peugeot e-3008 in the GT line.
The car has a useful battery capacity of 73 kWh. It uses a NMC battery, not LFP.
It’s built on the Stellantis "STLA Medium" platform, but "STLA Large" versions with up to 94 kWh battery options will be available.
The test driver is planning a 700 km trip to assess the vehicle's performance.
The car features AC charging at 11 kW and DC charging up to 160 kW.
Peugeot states that the car can charge from 20-80% in 30 minutes.
The reviewer finds the rear light design appealing.
The charging port is located on the rear left and has a huge lid.
The car’s range, consumption, and charging speed will be evaluated, particularly long-distance suitability.
The car has an estimated range of about 400km, and charges from 10% to 80% of its battery in approximately 39 minutes.
Interior features include comfortable leather seats with massage, ventilation, and heating functions, along with memory settings. It is likely that leather is actually vegan, meaning it is a synthetic material.
The rear seats offer generous legroom.
There's also a center armrest, USB-C ports, and a 12V outlet. The car has a sunroof.
There is no front trunk. A third brake light is built in, and the electric tailgate makes accessing the trunk easy.
There is no one-pedal driving feature, but the three levels of regenerative braking feel similar.
Competitors include the Renault Scenic E-Tech, ID.5, and Audi Q4 e-Tron, however the Tesla Model Y has a bigger rear trunk.
Strengths include good handling (especially highway driving) and comfortable suspension, which makes the ride smooth. Also the cabin is very quiet.
Criticism: the charger cover is very big,
and a downside is the lack of full one-pedal driving, requiring the driver to apply the brakes to stop.
Additional shortcomings of the model being tested are the dark rims, that might be swapped for better looking models, and the high gloss center console, which easily catches fingerprints.
With a minor update it might improve and become a perfect car.
