Why these brands do not compete with Renault Zoe that offers 22 kW AC charging which is normally free at most offices and shopping areas. DC charging is becoming expensive nowadays.
great looking car,looks better than the zoe in my opinion. Good to see they included 100kw fast charging , i take it they use a active heating/ cooling system for the battery ?
I’ve just swapped the Zoe for the e208 and the difference is night and day with regards to range and charging. Yes the Zoe goes further but the e208 charges much faster( I have been charging from 20 to 80% in about 25 minutes in the pug which took over 45 minutes in the Zoe )👍

While the redesign is nice, once everyday, average Europeans realize that Peugeot is charging DOUBLE just for them taking out the engine and replacing it with batteries, they will quickly go back to buying the 'regular' 208 for half the price. The e-version will NOT be a big seller.
All of the footage of the car driving in the countrysides was made available by Peugeot marketing. It makes you think, weather what is being said also is provided by Peugeot marketing... does the reviewer say what she mean? Or does she say what Peugeot wants to hear... This looks and sounds very staged. To me this is not a serious review. This is an attempt to gain view count based a thumbnail of a popular brand.
It's easy to get b-roll film clips from manufacturers, many independent reviewers do that to fill out their own footage. Not all have their own drones or camera teams to take exterior moving footage, especially when they are filming outside of their home country. There is nothing suspicious about this.
I am surprised that you think good leg room in rear. I found it uncomfortable and not enough room or comfort for legs..e Niro way more practical and comfortable with significantly more range but at a price.
0 to 60 in 8.1 seconds...why are these things so slow? Honest question here. Even the e-golf is slow. EV's have all this torque/power, but these small EV's are coming out way slower than they should be. Heck, our 2018 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid (30 mile full EV range) is 0 to 60 in under 8 seconds and it's a 7 seater minivan weighing nearly 4,000lbs. I'm really confused by this.
You are probably from the US? In Europe, many cars are small super minis with 0 to 60 over 9 seconds. Why is 0 to 60 so important? This is more than sufficient. Also, yes evs have the torque. But with these cars there's only one motor and 2 wheels being driven. Not 2 or 3 motors. These cars are meant for first time buyers, younger people, small families etc. They don't want cars that spins its 2 wheels everytime they want to move off. There's nothing confusing about it.
Yea many new cars in Europe still only have 0-60 times of 12 seconds, acceleration is just not seen as being that important to the vast majority of people here. Most cars even with low acceleration can get up to 100mph. A few years ago I drove 2000 miles across Europe in a 1999 Vauxhall Astra Estate (station wagon) 1.7 diesel with only 73bhp 0-60 of 14 seconds when empty but I was carrying 4 people and luggage, was fine.
Apparently Europe is fine with dangerously slow acceleration in cars. At 10 seconds to 60mph a vehicle will travel 440 ft. Some of our on-ramps are only half that length. And when discussing top speed, 100mph is pointless (there is no speed limit above 75mph anywhere in the U.S.) when majority of your driving in the U.S. (at least where I live) a combination of pulling into traffic on city streets and getting stuck in random traffic on the freeway. But the major point is, these electric motors are capable of so much more, but are being sold as slower than a typical gas guzzling SUV (that's so popular in the US). Also, those saying that these cars are for first time buyers. Well the ICE equivalents are usually faster (and cheaper). Take the e-golf for example. The ICE version is 0 to 60 in 7.7 seconds, but the e-golf (EV version) is 8.5 seconds. That's a pretty big difference!
These cars are not dangerously slow, like I said the vast majority of people have been driving cars like this for decades. Regarding merging onto a motorway (freeway) most drivers in Europe change lanes to leave the slow lane nearest to the slip road empty for merging traffic, just driving etiquette. Regarding top speeds, there are many motorways in Germany with no speed limit, and some countries in Europe have top speed of around 90mph on motorways such as Poland. Regarding the speed of electric cars, this is done most likely to preserve the longevity of the battery and to get the best range. Also looking on the VW website here in the UK, the Golf is available with a 1.0 TSI 0-60 9.9 seconds. 1.4 TSI 0-60 8.8 seconds. When looking at the diesels 1.6 TDI is 10.2 and the 2.0 TDI is 8.3s So unless you look at GTi or R then the eGolf at 8.5s is perfectly adequate for the average person.
Electric cars will only become normal when they reach the range of a petrol car which wont happen until they bring out glass lithium batteries. More storage, way more robust, high output and faster charging.
I don't understand what's so good about these cars... e 208, e corsa, they are all the same. Come on guys, would u spend 25 thousand pounds / 30 thousand euros on this car ? 🤦♂️ these cars are not as mature as Teslas. I would rather buy a used model 3 for this price.
At last some reviews of real EVs. But what is the point of making them look like ICE cars, we are all adults? I would rather see the fact that EVs do not have a need for a large petrol/diesel engine under the bonnet the design can be designed to have a better external dimensions to internal space ratio, better materials that can be recycled after the much longer life an EV can have. The I-Pace, Zoe, BMW i3 and evening the Tesla are far superior. Car manufacturers please give car drivers some credit, we are not all brainless morons who don’t like change :-)
market research shows this is what consumers want, buyers are often put off by the design of cars such as BMW i3 and car companies are all about maximising profits so it saves money using a single design for Ice and Electric cars. it's simple really
SDav21 where did I say I preferred specific cars? I didn’t. I am curious as to why people are so stupid as to desire an EV that looks like an ICE powered car. Electric trains aren’t designed to look like steam powered ones! I’m not the one who needs to grow up, in it the infantile car buyers who don’t like change’ :-)
@@johnkellett7797 Why does electric cars have to look a certain way? An electric car also just looks like a car. What is an electric car supposed to look like? A spaceship? No. You still need to grow up. Your view is immature.
SDav21 , you are the immature one. ICE cars look the way they do because they have a large lump of metal upfront (or in the rear). EVs don’t. How thick are you? Electric motors are much small and best mounted on or near the axles or even individual wheels. With the batteries mounted low down under the seats for best performance/weight distribution. So no they do not need to look like an ICE car, ever, at all.
This is great news for the ev market, especially with that range and the aggressive price!

Why these brands do not compete with Renault Zoe that offers 22 kW AC charging which is normally free at most offices and shopping areas. DC charging is becoming expensive nowadays.
Why is it when I see the car static at the beginning of the video review, I think turn the lights off, it’s knackering my battery.
Does it make any artificial sound when at low speed? (AVAS)
great looking car,looks better than the zoe in my opinion. Good to see they included 100kw fast charging , i take it they use a active heating/ cooling system for the battery ?
Yes, I think it is actively watercooled, just like in the Opel e-Corsa.

Such a great looking car. I wonder if it's fun to chuck about like a hot hatch.
They should make them in such a way that you can remove the empty battery and exchange them at a station with charged ones
