Electric version of saloon-cum-crossover to hit UK roads early next year
Peugeot has revealed the E-408, the electric variant of its saloon-cum-crossover which will take on the Tesla Model 3 and Polestar 2. Its addition means every car in Peugeot’s UK line-up offers a choice of petrol, hybrid and electric powertrains. Although closely related to the Peugeot E-308, which uses the same EMP2 platform, the larger E-408 adopts a slightly different set-up underneath, notably drawing power from a larger 58.2kwh NMC battery pack – unique to the Stellantis group.
Asked why Peugeot isn’t offering it with the bigger 98kwh battery that has just been launched on the Peugeot E-3008 and Peugeot E-5008 – offering up to 422 miles of range – Micheron said: When we looked at the competition of the E-408 we see we are in the right position when it comes top range and efficiency. The average daily C-Segment customer drives 45km a day.
