Uploaded 3 years ago by Electrifying

Video Summary

- The Peugeot e-2008 has a bold design and is quite large for a small compact SUV.
- It has a cat's claw design with the lights, and an intricate front grill design.
- The tail lights are concept car-esque.
- The boot isn't bad on space, with 434 liters.
- This is about 100 liters more than the e-208 supermini and is the same size as a Kia e-Niro.
- An adjustable boot floor stores cabling, and seats fold flat.
- The interior design is layered.
- A 10-inch screen is the perfect size and easy to use.
- A digital display is also nice and clear.
- The steering wheel feels small and squished and is positioned so it obstructs the view of the display.
- Entry-level models have a smaller 7-inch screen and analog dials.
- Entry-level models have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- There is a charge point search function.
- There is a USB port and USB-C port, but the USB-C port is only for charging and can't sync to the phone.
- Switches and buttons are available for heating and whatnot.
- The mobile phone holder props the phone up at an angle.
- The interior feels snug.
- It's based on an internal combustion engine car, and the back floor isn’t flat, and it has extra space with cubby holes in the front.
- Plenty of adjustment options exist on the seats and steering wheel.
- There is more space in the back than in the e-208, but not as much space as in the ID3.
- Below the floor is a 50-kilowatt hour battery pack and drives the front wheels.
- The battery has an overall size rather than the usual capacity of 45 kilowatts.
- It can be charged at a maximum speed of 100 kilowatts, which is good for a car of this size.
- It can charge from 10 to 80% on a 150-kilowatt rapid charger in just over 30 minutes.
- If on a slower 50-kilowatt charger, it will take 45 minutes to charge.
- Home wall boxes charge from empty to full in over seven hours.
- The range is between 191 and 206 miles, and the real-world range is around 170 miles.
- The official 0 to 60 time is 8.5 seconds.
- In Eco mode, the output is cut down to 83 brake horsepower and the air conditioning is not switched off.
- This provides a comfortable drive and still stays in Eco mode.
- It has two regen options: normal and B-mode. Neither hits the mark for a full re-gen effect.
- There is active braking and speed sign recognition.
- Cheaper models don't get all the goodies.
