Peugeot hosted a digital event called Electronic Lion Day in which he talked about his electrification project and some new products. The French automaker has also confirmed some of its most important targets for the future. By the end of 2023, the entire landfill will be electrified. For 2025all models will have an electric version. From 2030however, Peugeot aims to only sell 100% electric vehicles in Europe.
To continue this strategy, the French brand will launch several new battery-powered models on the market over the next few years.
Within 2 years, 5 new electric vehicles will be launched: e-308, e-308 SW (electric station wagon), e-408, e-3008 and e-5008.
We already know a few things about the Peugeot e-308 and e-308 SW, which will hit the market during the year, as the automaker has already introduced these vehicles. For example, these models will be able to count on a new 115 kW (156 hp) electric motor and a WLTP range of around 400 km. Peugeot e-408 it will always arrive during 2023.
On e-3008, the French brand has revealed some interesting information. This model will be presented first in the second half of 2023. In addition, Peugeot said that this SUV will be based on new platform STLA Mediumcan count range up to 700 km and will be offered with three different powertrains (also in a twin engine version). Peugeot e-5008 it will arrive after e-3008, even if the exact period has not been communicated.
Therefore, it will be very interesting to know the specifications of the e-3008, given that it will have one of the completely new platforms developed by Stellantis for its electric vehicles. All of these new battery-powered models will complement those that the manufacturer already offers in the price list.
On the other hand, battery-powered models smaller than the current Peugeot e-208 will not appear. The automaker has announced that it currently has no plans to do so.
Meanwhile, Peugeot will also debut in 2023 with the new MHEV 48V hybrid technology, which we will find in the 208, 2008, 308, 3008, 5008 and 408 models. system called Peugeot Hybrid 48V it consists of a new generation PureTech petrol engine with 100 hp. or 136 hp coupled with a new 6-speed dual clutch transmission and a 21 kW (29 hp) electric motor. A solution that, according to the French manufacturer, will reduce fuel consumption by up to 15%.
