PEUGEOT has revealed the new all-electric E-3008, featuring an aerodynamic fastback SUV design, a new electric powertrain offering up to 435 miles of range* and PEUGEOT’s latest Panoramic i-Cockpit®.
The new E-3008 will replace the best-selling PEUGEOT 3008, a car that has impressed more than 1,320,000 customers in 130 countries for seven years. By 2025, PEUGEOT will offer a complete battery electric line-up, and by 2030, 100% of the brand’s sales in Europe will be electric.
With the new E-3008, PEUGEOT has taken the creativity of its design, the driving pleasure and electric performance on offer to a new level:
- ALLURE of a fastback SUV with a reinvented and efficient design.
- EMOTION produced by the next-gen PEUGEOT Panoramic i-Cockpit® to take driving pleasure to a whole new level.
- EXCELLENCE of 100% electric range (up to 435 miles) and performance, thanks to the new STLA Medium platform and powertrains from Stellantis.
Linda Jackson, CEO of PEUGEOT, said: "The launch of the next-level E-3008 is a major step in PEUGEOT's radical transformation into an alluring 100% electric brand that sets new benchmarks for design, driving pleasure and efficiency. With its exterior design, spectacular PEUGEOT Panoramic i-Cockpit®, driving pleasure and unprecedented electric performance, the Next-Level E-3008 ushers PEUGEOT into a new era as the French brand offering the widest range of mainstream electric vehicles on the market.”
STLA Medium electric platform
The PEUGEOT E-3008 will be the first model to use Stellantis’ brand-new STLA Medium electric powertrain, designed to offer best-in-class performance to meet customers’ needs: range (up to 435 miles*), recharge time (20-80% in 30 minutes from a 160kW charger), driving pleasure, performance, efficiency, and connected services and functions (Trip Planner, Smart charging, and online updates). The STLA Medium comprises a permanent magnet synchronous motor operating in tandem with an electric gearbox to deliver more power, efficiency and torque, powered by a 400V lithium-ion battery.
For AC charging, two types of on-board chargers are available, with an 11kW three-phase charger as standard and a 22kW three-phase charger as an option. For DC rapid recharging, the Mode 4 socket on the new E-3008 is capable of charging speeds up to 160kW, enabling the E-3008's standard range battery to be recharged from 20% to 80% in 30 minutes, and less than 30 minutes for the Long-Range version.
The new E-3008 also features a V2L (Vehicle to Load) function, giving customers the option of powering an electrical device via the car’s high-voltage battery. The system can supply up to 3kW and 16A. The V1G or Smart Charging function can also adjust the time and power at which the battery of the new PEUGEOT E-3008 is charged to optimise charging costs.
Fastback SUV design
The fastback SUV styling of the new E-3008 makes it immediately recognisable. With its dynamic and aerodynamic shape (Cx 0.28), the new E-3008 combines elegance, efficiency and spaciousness. The E-3008 remains one of the most compact cars in the 100% electric SUV category (length: 4.54m, width: 1.89m, height: 1.64m), while still providing 520 litres of boot space - identical to that of the previous 3008.
With a fully redesigned front end, the ultra-compact LED headlamps and grille are complemented by a sweeping aerodynamic profile which highlights the modernity and unique personality of the E-3008.
Continuing the innovative work that started on the 408, PEUGEOT has equipped the new E-3008 with wheels that contribute to both modern styling and aerodynamic performance. The 19” or 20” wheels, with their technical and geometric design, feature the new PEUGEOT emblem at their centre.
At the rear of the car, PEUGEOT has modernised the traditional slope of the fastback with a "floating" spoiler, inspired by the Quartz Concept. This innovative feature enhances the curve of the new E-3008's bodywork while optimising aerodynamics and complementing the distinctive three-claw rear light signature.
The new E-3008 is available in a range of six colours. Thanks to innovative dichromatic pigments, the Obsession Blue colour changes from blue to green depending on the light and the shape of the bodywork. The other colours available are Ingaro Blue, Okenite White, Nera Black, Cumulus Grey and Titane Grey.
Panoramic i-Cockpit®
Inside, the new PEUGEOT Panoramic i-Cockpit® features a floating, curved 21” HD panoramic screen that combines the head-up display with the central touchscreen. Positioned for optimum ergonomics, the panoramic screen is slightly curved towards the driver while remaining perfectly accessible to the passenger. Next to the panoramic screen, the instrument cluster combines all the information relating to driving (speed, power, driving aids, energy flow) above the new compact steering wheel. In the centre of the dashboard, the touch-screen is used to manage the heating/air conditioning, navigation and media/connectivity systems.
The central part of the E-3008’s dashboard also houses the i-Toggles, fully customisable touch-sensitive buttons that can be programmed to provide quick access to 10 of the user's favourite functions, such as calling a specific contact, starting navigation to a frequently used destination or setting the air-conditioning to a favourite temperature.
Meanwhile, the cabin's aesthetics and cutting-edge technology are enhanced by the ambient LED lighting, which can be customised in eight different colours. A new compact and ergonomic steering wheel with touch-sensitive controls heightens the feeling of modernity, and PEUGEOT’s Air Quality System (AQS) ensures that the cabin is a refreshing and calming place to be.
The new PEUGEOT Panoramic i-Cockpit® also introduces two paddles behind the steering wheel which allow the driver to choose from three levels of regenerative braking.
- Low (-0.6m/s²), for a feeling close to that of conventional brakes.
- Medium (-1.2m/s²), for increased deceleration.
- High (-1.8m/s²), for maximum deceleration, and therefore regeneration.
The medium and high levels automatically switch on the rear brake lights.
Instinctive driving pleasure
For an instinctive driving experience, the new STLA Medium platform incorporates new front and rear axles designed to deliver dynamic road-holding. The architecture of the platform itself contributes to this dynamism by lowering the vehicle's centre of gravity, thanks to the single-layer battery being ideally positioned as low as possible between the wheels.
The E-3008 comes with a suite of driver aids to ensure a smooth driving experience, including adaptive cruise control with Stop & Go function, lane keep assist and speed limit sign detection. The E-3008 also features the latest PEUGEOT active safety technologies, such as automatic emergency braking with collision warning, lane departure warning, Driver Attention Alert, long-range blind spot monitoring and Advanced Traction Control.
The PEUGEOT E-3008 will be available with two trim levels, Allure and GT, with three all-electric powertrains:
- 210bhp/157kW Standard Range
- 230bhp/170kW Long Range
- 320bhp/240kW Dual Motor providing all-wheel drive
Self-charging hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains will also be available.
The new PEUGEOT E-3008 will be manufactured exclusively at the Sochaux plant in France and will be on sale from February 2024.
