I’m really liking the new Peugeot styling - this is pretty handsome! Especially in the blue. Love the rear light bar too. Great video dude
.
. NOT, NOT, NOT ... Peuge-NOT
.
Seen a few reviews on this car and what a beautiful looking car. Which is weird because it's Peugeot.. anyway what I wanted to comment was I seen a few reviews but yours is the best because you actually show everything and talk to viewers like normal people. You're making me want an electric car!
I also had a three oh six. I loved it! Nice video, man.
The seats look really nice. It's the one thing I've noticed when I look into Peugeots
Saw two of these on the same stretch of the M62 yesterday - exceptionally distinctive in the rear view mirror! Great to see them.
Looks really good. I have the 3008 H4 Hybrid (2014). Very happy with it.
Good review. Your friend's input was thoughtful and a useful addition to the overall critique.
looks great! :)
I have a 2008 GT Line Diesel, this is my second 2008 and I love it. Pleased they have kept the traditional shape inside and out. Hope to test drive one ( Marshal Peugeot ) seems the mileage needs to improve, but on the whole....well done Peugeot
Fantastic review! At 16:20, your friend vanished? I loved the comic relief.
GT spec has ejector seat? 🤔
BackwoodsBungalow 😂😂😂
I love it. When used prices fall, I'll buy one! :)
Great Video Review. A great TH-cam Channel as well
Good honest review!
I think it a smart deal. 100kW CCS makes it a good holiday car too.
Love the copper colour.
Good review. I enjoy seeing all the cars we can't get here in the US.
The beauty of TH-cam, people can watch from all round the world. I'm surprised you can understand his accent ;)
Well, actually PSA is making a comeback in the US and it seems like the car will be introduced in the US market since it's a SUV and the only type of cars americans are interested in are SUV's/pickup truck and sports cars. There is a really good chance that you will have it ! This particular car is electric and hasn't been released yet so, i think the petrol ones will be the first.
I really like this am an old 307 driver good reliable motors and it’s great looking and at a price point that’s finally reasonable
great video liked 🚗
Enjoyed the review, still chuckling at Rocket Surgery. I agree with your summing up, range is king. Pay the extra and get a Niro/ Soul/ Kona. Personally I'm still not convinced about the Model 3. Hopefully next year the South Koreans will sort out the supply as promised .. ID 3 could beat them all though. Patience required ...
Agree with you. I'm a traditionalist with cars as well and don't really like SUV's but I do think the 2008 is 1 of the better looking ones.
Mustang-esque? Go have a good look at rear of an early model 504 coupe! That is the retro design clue.
Nice car!
Sorry for asking, but what was the consumption and how fast did you travel during the trip?
I HATE the "scratch test"!!! Everyone does that ONCE and then for the next eight years of ownership they never touch that part again unless they dust the dash. Everyone wants a $60K auto for a $22K price.
Tell me a way of showing people on camera what something is like and I’ll do that. As for needing $60k car for a half decent interior, try a European car and $22k is more than enough for that.
@@ElectricVehicleMan But $22k is only £16,500.
Crash Box Which includes Golf/BMW 1 Series etc, pretty much. Either way it’s way off £50-60k
I find it quite important especially near the arm rest, you touch it alot, it doesn't take a lot to make it nicer and there's many manufacturers that do so. Soft touch also scuffs less than the harder plastic
Ray Jennings Holed? What the hell are you doing to your cars! Soft touch doesn’t mean soft, it means more expensive material on what is in this spec a £34k car! It’s like buying an expensive TV with a cheap remote, it doesn’t change anything but you expect better given the price.
I have ordered it’s little sibling e208 so basically just a different body.
Hope it works for me as my first EV
Yeah me too. I ordered the e208GT, it's coming next month. This is all new to me I hope I don't regret it :)
What's the official wltp range for e208?
hellmekun 211 miles / 340km
Our 30 kWh Leaf does about 100 miles per charge and we have not regretted it once. New EV’s will do a lot more miles per charge so if the real world range suits you just smile every time you quietly pass a petrol station and feel sorry for the poor souls who just don’t know what they’re missing.
@@andrewtowell8979 Hi. Got my eyes on some 2011 to 2014 models with 24kwh with around 50k miles more or less. My daily driving if to and from work with one stop on the way will be 20 miles a day. I understand if it had many superfast charges, the range its smaller due to degradation of the battery. I would like to take one on HP and monthly will come up to £150 or so which I spend right now in petrol and road tax with an ICE car. Basically I ll pay 150 a month for 5 years but pay nothing or almost nothing to run it ( got charging at work and supermarkets so I wonder if I can lower from 2nd floor flat a long charging cable :)) to the parking. Will batteries last till 80k or 90k miles ( something I ll achieve in 5 years from the presuming 50k miles I ll get one with)?? Please reply asap :)) Seeing one or two on Wednesday.
Did you get to test drive the e-208 as well ?
You didn't mention anything about the consumption. How was the consumption during the test?
Brilliant review again thanks
It would be interesting to see what the prices of the equivalent Citroën and Vauxhall cars will be!
A great car - just a shame the steering wheel doesn't go any higher for us taller drivers!
EVM what do you think is going to be a realistic range for this car ? I assume the press cars got flogged to death as alot of the video footage shows ranges around 150km 90ish miles when almost full.
I’m buying a GT line as my first EV and company car ... 0-1 % BIK you can’t go wrong... 30 years a diesel ...
Red Monster Rock Tv
Great plan. My company is buying EVs and providing them with salary sacrifice so you save tax that way as well. They get 100% tax write off in the first year so it's win win
So a question for you 2008 or the MG?
Very nice, shame about the lack of range
I was never a Peugeot fan, but I really like this one. About the glossy parts. Remove them and wrap them in a vinyl of your own choice. Not a big deal and pretty cheap.
The blue in this car is the best
I think it looks amazing.
But my Mrs hates it.
She is a VW driver so we can ignore what she thinks.
Haha haha 😂😂😂😂 she’s gonna love the hard plastics thoughg
SUV style cars have there place, if you are like me and have back issues, lower cars can be a pain access wise. I know there are other ev advocates who hate SUVs with a passion but for some people there is an actual reason to consider, sometimes range isn't everything, I'd have an ipace eqc or e-tron in a heartbeat if I could afford one, the 2008 I looked at for my size (6'3") wasn't quite suitable knowing the ev would be the same size sort of ruled it out for me. The PSA group could be onto a good affordable sector with their range.
Of course they have their place but every single car is one!
E-2008 or 40kw leaf? Which is overall better to drive and performance? & spec?
as soon as he opened the drivers door.. the electric window switches look identical to that of my 59 plate Nissan Note and they work perfectly fine.. the range is also similar to my 1.6 petrol Note.. So going from a 1.6 hatchback to a e-2008 is not a problem going by the video..
Seems to be an excellent car all round - and has what few people ever mention, a practical square edged boot with a low sill and a flat load area! Great!
It just needs to be
a) £18,000 for the entry level
b) freely available to buy 'off the shelf' so lots of people will buy it.
c) two years old with low mileage and having experienced 'normal' car depreciation - so I can go and have a realistic choice of 'pre-loved' examples.
Meanwhile, back on Planet Reality..........!
Hi just found your channel liking it so far good reviews plenty of information & some nice cars
🚗 🚙 🚗💨. Think i will subscribe good job keep it up,
Have you reviewed the new MG HS Plug-In Hybrid if not can you?
Price in Rep.Ireland is €33,150.
Also a big hello from Ireland 🇮🇪.
what is the real rang i would get from 2008, i am thinking about get one on mobility
I’m convinced that EVM is just reviewing regular cars and the E he says at the front is due to him being from Yorkshire
If he’s doing 80k a year he needs to buy a Tesla Model S with free supercharging for life. He would save a packet in fuel costs.
Mark Gaudie Founder of Northwest England EV Owners no he buys a 2008 and saves 60k 😂😂😂😂😂 its a no brainer
"Rocket surgery" 😂
Hybrid version that covers both types of difficulty
It’s not brain science.

Great "Cat-Phrase"
Adjusting the steering wheel is not done so drivers can see the dash. You pretend to be an automotive journalist?
Thank you very much for the information. I believe you have driven both this car as well as Kia e-niro. Sizewise which one would you recommend I'm asking for a family please.
eNiro much bigger but more expensive and longer range.
@@ElectricVehicleMan as a business hire car price difference is 60 quid more per month. Thanks for the information :)
I have to laugh at "French and electrics, what could possibly go wrong?" comments. Did you miss the JD Power Dependability Survey which put Peugeot at #1, or is it more comforting to harp on about old stereotypes? I bet you'll have a pop at Skoda next.
I rather like it!
If you adjust the steering wheel down so that you can see the cockpit, won't the wheel end up in your lap? Therefore you need to put the seat in its lowest position perhaps?
Would have loved to get an idea of the rear storage space. Is it small like the Kona or is it bigger like the eTron or EQC?
It’s a tall Corsa, not a huge SUV.
@@ElectricVehicleMan Still would have been interesting to see it or maybe have a tape measure with you on future reviews as Bjorn does.
If it only have Kona size battery and rear drive, otherwise perfect for me.
It's easy to see although you can't see the display behind the steering wheel.
Gerd Bremer you are suppose to look over, not through the steering wheel! There for the name head up display :)
Sander Nielsen For some people it‘s a heads-up, for some a heads-down and for the others a I can‘t see display ;-)
You forgot to open the hood (bonnet). Is it batteries or storage in there?
Neither.
Terrible positioning of USBs - upward-facing so they will get full of crud and hard to clean it out
-
- NOT, NOT, NOT ... Peuge-NOT.

Can it haul?
Will you be reviewing the new Corsa E mate?
If they give me one.
I have any car or van yet I have a recumbent trike if you are looking a EV to get what one would fit me and my recumbent trike
Could have sworn you said "Badgercide" at 14:10. Thought you were into murdering badgers until I went back and realised you meant "badge aside".
Peugeot said on another review video.. that all the seat covers are made of recycled fabrics so that's nice idea? I think more should be done by car makers to use recycled cloths and even plastics were possible..
Kia made the Soul EV with recycled plastics and different colour to the fossil powered cars.
As the innovative BMW. i3 did 6 years ago!
If you have a thing about hard plastics you gonna love VWs 😂😂😂😂😂
The VW ID3 looks terrible inside. Full of that cheap hard plastic.
More plastic to pollute our childrens environment in the future.....when will we ever learn what we are doing to destroy our planet?
Nice shape and colour, are you buying one? Why do they hide the cable under the boot base. Why not in a side box?
Well........ Err, I guess lots of people won't care even a little bit - me for example....!
Love my Zoe but I don't have anywhere to store my cable or granny lead. The false floor is a huge improvement!
@@davidellis4031 You do know you can buy underfloor cable storage for the old Zoe?
One question, The front looks very long in comparison to the rest of the car so, whats under the bonnet?
Motor and (fixed ratio) gearbox, motor and battery management, charge controller, heat pump and heater and battery thermal management stuff.
And the drivetrain. Front wheel drive.
And, of course, in other versions. The ICE and hybrid engine, etc.
Between this one and the ioniq which one would you prefer?
I have ioniq hybrid but ordering e-2008 GT Line tomorrow :)
The E2008 and the lies about its range. I have the DS3 which has the same underpinnings and am so disappointed about the lies on stated range. 200 miles means 115 in winter at 60mph. I do love the look of the 2008 though so am giving the DS3 Etense back after 14k miles for a new diesel 2008. I will check the BEV range again in 3 years :)
Does the electric version have park Assist?
It's a £250 optional extra even on the top spec.
For 75% of the people the watch scratching won’t be a problem because they are right handed, so they were the watch on the left wrist and they drive on the right side of the road.
Does this vehicle have a heat pump?
That gearstick is counterintuitive! It should be forward is drive and aft is backwards!
That would be a USB-A I guess not a USB-B (the B variant is mostly used on printers and some external hard drives etc.).
Yep, full-size USB A. A also comes in mini and micro versions, but don't seem very common - I've only seen those in the wild a few times.
Full-size B is the almost square one, common on printers, while mini and micro are/have been common on things like dashcams, phones, mp3-players etc etc - these days most converge towards USB C...
I need a 4x4 e suv, as live on an uphill dirt track. Have an used budget of £30 k .
Have ordered an e2008 through my works salary sacrifice, got a top of the range GT in pearlecent red for about £250 pm (net) for 3 years, 10k miles, all servicing, insurance for 2 people, tyres, breakdown recovery and no deposit to pay. How do they do this? Official value is close to £40k. Just have to wait a few months for it to arrive now!
Nicholas Wintle High residuals with EVs.
@@ElectricVehicleMan yeah, I guessed as much, so I guess I'm just paying the depreciation for three years, plus a bit for their profit, the margins must be very tight!
Have to disagree with you on SUVs, I think they do make good looking cars there’s a reason why they outsell other models of cars. But the wife and I love our leaf just as much as we love our jeep we look forward to the day jeep bring out a electric model, love the jeep for camping tho and getting up difficult tracks in the highlands.
What about phone integration? Apple and Android?
Andy P Sure!
it's brain science
The problem with shared platforms is the compromise it brings. Full ev cars typically make better use of the space but they are few and far between, or cost a lot like Tesla and iPace.
What's in the frunk? Any extra storage there?
Nope, just car stuff.
@@ElectricVehicleMan Seems like a lot of space for EV Carr stuff.
A lot of people me included actually prefer the hard “cheap” plastic because it’s far better wearing over time than the sod touch shit that so many manufacturers put into their cars.
Sorry - but I'd disagree with you on that, as soft plastics are less likely to become scratched and marked over time like hard plastics will. And once they're scratched, they're a bugger to clean up, with heat guns only really getting rid of the smaller marks.
Ewan Black I disagree with you. 😇
this or the kia e-niro ???
why people say this is low milage? I don't remember but approximately 340KM, IRL, or in winter it's like still at least 280, I mean this is not low at all. it's medium. everybody want ford mustang? I PACE? why a lot people say EV should be at least 200KM in range capablity, isn't this car already 300+?
Is the driving position ‘straight ahead’ or offset like so many Peugeot’s?
And what the hell does the big yellow notice on the steering boss say?
Airbag wasn’t active on preproduction models.
Rob B S Never noticed that on left side driving models!?
Rocket surgery !!!!
Nee designs on the Peugeot are cracking. Probably getting one for the school run
Had a look on Auto Trader app - 13 Dec '19. New Peugeot e-308 GT line for £28.5k and the Allure for just over £26k. Should be longer range than the SUV 3008, suggests 211 miles, so maybe 170 to 180. Probably the better buy than the SUV?!
I would like to see access to spare wheel be part of reviews . From experience, mostly not good .
Very “relatable “ review.
Most don’t have one these days.
Electric Vehicle Man Thanks for the reply. Alas,I must “out” myself as a driver of old clunkers. Your review was excellent though. I may actually buy a new Peugeot e.v. though. M.N.
BEST CAR !! FRENCH TECHNOLOGY IS WOW
Curious what the drag co-efficient is on these big bluff fronted SUV's - sod aero efficiency for the sake of fashion? Noticed that no car maker is improving fuel efficiency anymore, in fact its the opposite!
Fashion drives the car industry...
How many miles/kWh standard so we can compare with other ev's
No ones driven it enough to know.
@@ElectricVehicleMan thats sad. Is it too hard to drive it 120 kmh on a motorway 50 km? Woulf be nice to know if it is really efficient or not.
T. Günter It’s not a case of whether you want to or not, these things have preprogrammed routes and I was in the middle of southern French countryside.
Someone should put a boot in the boot! Lol
What do I get 😭😭 E2008 or the E208... I feel the E2008 will have less range due to it being hevey.. and slower, I love the space it has over the E208 but I'm young and like sporty cars as well as space for people
Color code?
So what’s the battery size and range ?
S Rowlands Watch the video
S Rowlands my god!!! If you want answers watch the whole video. It’s not rocket science. 🤨
Damn I think your british is ways to hard for some people 😂😂
Order e208GT JAN 23 still no build date what’s that about
thought they would’ve had it ready to sell or at least some
Ordered 3rd of March and delivery in Mid October for Germany. This is way to long!!!
What is the matter here?
By that time, that range is going to look even more lacking as batter tech improves.
L Notley cancelled mine still no build date
During the present economical crisis - everybody has to wait. I expect delivery for x-mas. What a present...;-)
I know you say there’s other small SUV EVs that have better ranger but they look crap... as an action sports athlete the new 2008 GT looks a real mission machine... it’ll look good wrapped with my company branding... who wants a KONA... not me 🤪
Lumbar support?
In the GT line version for sure
The big problem for me with cars designed to take both EV and combustion power trains is the interior space is compromised, the engine bay is too large for the EV components meaning the cabin is moved back, the boot is smaller than it could be, just compare this with the VW ID3 when you have a go, Golf size with Passat interior space. The battery is also too complicated as it has to fit in the space reserved in the combustion cars for the drive, exhaust, fuel tank etc, not a simple box like you get in a Tesla.
If you actually check it out the ice versions and EV have EXACTLY the same space inside
@@mickdaly6537 Yes they do, and that is the problem! cabin too far back = small boot (trunk), it is worse on the e-208, tiny rear doors and tiny boot!
Tiny boot? It's bigger then most in this sector
There’s more power in the petrol one??? Is he sure about that? 🤔
Really liking PEUGEOT design at the minute.
155bhp vs 130ish
Gear selector.
Forward to reverse, backwards for forward ?
Makes no sense to me
This is and has been the standard for all automatic gear selectors.
@M Bacon yes, but this is the 21st century, so about time we had cars to suit. Electric is the future, this is supposed to be a car of the future so why dwell on the past?
@@wermagst this isn't a standard gearbox, it has two selections.... Forward and back..... So logical to push forward to go forward and back to go backwards.....intuitive!
Exactly right!
Any new EV should be capable of at least 200 miles. If not then it really needs to be in the low £20.000 price bracket. Sorry not enough car for the price.
No CCS?
Watch the vid again.
sliddjur yes it has CCS and 100kw peak charging rate
Range?
Keep watching b
I guess I'm just the wrong height for a Peugeot and those small wheels I've tried but I can't get em set right so I'll never have one. Waaay overpriced anyway.
Looked good though and every boot floor should hold itself up like that while you pack the cables away.
