After last year’s introduction of the E-3008 model, Peugeot has expanded its range of electric cars with a new electric SUV, the Peugeot E-5008. It will officially hit the market in Q3 2024.
The car is 4.79 meters long, 1.89 meters wide and 1.69 meters high, with a wheelbase of 2.9 meters. At first glance, it is identical to the smaller E-3008 model, and customers will be able to choose six body colors: Obsession Blue, Ingaro Blue, Okenite White, Pearl Black, Artense Gray and Titanium Grey.
This SUV, with three rows of seats, is extremely spacious and can accommodate up to seven passengers, and provides 259 liters of luggage space, which can be increased to 748 liters by folding the seats. It is equipped with a luxurious GT equipment kit that brings a two-tone body, LED headlights, heated electrically adjustable seats trimmed in Alcantara, an ambient lighting system and a space for wireless charging of mobile phones, while a 21-inch curved i-Cockpit panel is standard.
When it comes to the powertrain, the E-5008 is powered by a single electric motor with 214 hp (159 kW) and 254 lb-ft (345 Nm) of torque. This version is equipped with a 73 kWh battery that provides a range of 500 km. Customers can also choose a more powerful Long Range version with 231 hp (172 kW) with a larger 98 kWh battery that provides a range of 660 km. If you want more power, there is an option with two electric motors and 320 hp (239 kW), 98 kWh battery and a range of 500 km.
Peugeot also offers the E-5008 as a hybrid. Under the bonnet is a 1.2 liter petrol engine with 136 hp (101 kW) combined with a mild 48V hybrid drive. The company points out that this option reduces fuel consumption by about 15 percent, compared to the ICE version.
