Peugeot has unveiled its new e-3008, a fully electric fastback SUV that promises to deliver a range of up to 435 miles on a single charge. The e-3008 is the first model to use the new eVMP platform from Stellantis, which is designed specifically for electric vehicles and offers improved performance, efficiency, and technology.
The Peugeot e-3008 is a radical departure from the previous generation of the 3008, which was a conventional SUV with a choice of gasoline, diesel, or plug-in hybrid powertrains. The new model features a sleek and aerodynamic design, with a sloping roofline, narrow headlights, and a curved grille. The rear end has a distinctive coupé-like shape, with a spoiler and an upturned lip. The e-3008 also sports the new Peugeot logo, which is inspired by the brand’s heritage and symbolizes its transition to electrification.
The e-3008 will be available in three electric variants, each with different battery sizes, power outputs, and driving ranges. The entry-level model will have a 73 kWh battery, a single motor with 210 hp, front-wheel drive, and a range of up to 326 miles. The long-range model will have a 98 kWh battery, a single motor with 230 hp, front-wheel drive, and a range of up to 435 miles. The dual-motor model will have a 98 kWh battery, two motors with 320 hp combined, all-wheel drive, and a range of up to 326 miles. All models will have a top speed of 112 mph and will support fast charging up to 160 kW, allowing them to recharge from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes.
