Peugeot e-208: Small update brings more range, e-route planner and V2L

The Stellantis brand Peugeot has further optimized the European bestseller in the electric small car segment, the e-208, and increased the range by 23 kilometers to now 432 kilometers in the WLTP. For the version with the 156 hp (115 kW) electric motor, an energy consumption of 14.1 – 14.5 kWh/100 km is specified. The model's efficiency has also been confirmed by the renowned ADAC's Ecotest 2024, which listed the e-208 as the most efficient car on the European market. Also new is a route planner, which, in combination with the optional connected navigation system, is intended to plan the route to maximize the vehicle's range and facilitate charging. The system takes into account the distance to be driven, the battery charge state at departure, the desired charge state upon arrival, and the available charging stations near the destination. Energy consumption is considered based on various criteria such as speed, traffic, road type, and elevation. The introduction of the "80 Percent Charge Limit" function, available in AC, also allows for adapting the charge state to daily usage. 

Also new is the V2L function equipped (only 115 kW), which offers the possibility to power an electrical device via the vehicle's high-voltage battery, such as charging an electric bicycle or using mobile lighting. To use the function for powering external devices (230V/16A), an adapter supplied by Peugeot is required. The maximum output power of the adapter is 3 kW. The function is available up to a fixed minimum charge capacity of 30 percent State of Charge (SoC).
