Drove one, impressive. Peugeot have stepped up their game so much lately. Pricier than before, but much better. Of course this car is more of a daily commute car, not long journeys
Oh Kris, you can still smile after arriving at the charger with so few kM of range; that's definitely "Grace under pressure"🤭 I really enjoyed the video. 👍❤️
Rain is really killing the range! I know, I drive a EV. Eco mode if you want maximum range and always in D mode when on highway except going down a mountain.
Great video. I sold my EV 2008. I simply did not have any desire to be stressed for every trip. I slso didnt wand to calculate temperature, wind direction, rain or snow, use of heating and A/C and then sitting hours waitng for a free charger and charging. Now : 4 min loading diesel and repeating in 1150 km. No worries, no calculations, sufficient heating and A/C. No stress
Good video and really nice car. For long travelling a ev is not suited. For me, a trip from the Hague to Luxemburg will cost 2 stops.... Now I can get there with no stop in my Volvo V50 D. This will cost me at least one hour extra. That is a lot in a normally 4 hour drive...

Very nice and informative video :) Considering this car atm. Also cool to see this video in norway and I live close by :) Anyway, can I ask how much does it cost to charge up at circle K ?
Nice video Kris. Just a heads up on the 1st stop 45Kwh/23.6Kwh would mean a 190km range I also wonder about time efficiency once the car goes over 50% and defiantly 70% SoC as the charging speed drops to 50Kw. and 25Kw respectively. It certainly seem like stopping at 70% SoC and driving even to a 50Kw charger would save time.

Electric cars are noticed to have a very high consumtion in speeds above 100 km/hour. I heard a double consumtion at 130 kmh. The avarage is Always way lower than the speed you are driving...... Look at your own board computer when you make a long trip
@@SuperWolffie where did you hear that? Check out tesla bjorn who has consumption figures for 100 and 120kph trips. I don’t recall seeing any doubling of consumption
@@SirHackaL0t. perhaps double is exxagerated but a Dutch official test between a economical and sporty driving style gave a differents of about 50 percent.....
@@SuperWolffie But your ‘I heard’ sows the seeds of doubt in peoples minds. Perhaps check your facts before using ‘I heard’ to reduce the FUD factor. And as for using a sporty style using more energy then yes, that’s true - and the same as in an ICE car. Anybody can tell you that driving enthusiastically will increase consumption irrespective of what energy source is being used. EVs are a lot more efficient than any ICE car and will show a greater difference if used for such things as towing or harsh acceleration etc and that’s because they are more efficient.
@@SirHackaL0t. I am sure that what i said is true or near the truth. I am not sure where I heard it but it was an official test. If I only knew where. Fact is that with the increase of speed above the normal limit in the Netherlands the consumption of ev is much more increasing the petrol or diesel engines. Fact is that going on the highway with speeds of 120-130 km/h the reach is heavely less.
@@tbone9405 fine, I wont go against that.... but 200miles range is more than enough for a day-to-day car as a commuter, for most of the people I guess. I can understand that range is not enough for some people with special requirements....but most of the commuters, it really is
@@tbone9405 In Europe people don t do more than 200 km daily and the CCS network is better. There are more CCS than superchargers here. Why buy 400 km EV when you only use half of the battery. The point of EV is to be sustainable environmentally speaking. Peugeot E2008 is by the way norway second most sold EV this year so far with 177 units, behind E tron with soon 200 units.
Why would I buy an EV just for commuting! You people don’t understand that in The United States we travel for pleasure, not just commuting! My Etron was sold as 204 miles. On highway going 75 mph only gets 163 miles of range. In town driving maybe 198 miles. There are not any high speed chargers in the city that I live in of over 100,000 people. I charge at home every night! I would like to take many trips if I could. I liked the Etron better than the model y.
They have the same engine and BMS, so apples to apples unless theirs a huge difference in drag coefficient then they will do the same miles, in the same conditions.
This is not a range test? With a range test you charge to 100% and then you drive to almost empty. Then you see what range you get. This is a 615 km challenge.
Challenge and test are synonyms, and this is a test because the test is how long does it take to drive the 615k including charging. A challenge would be something like “can you go 615km?”
So “ real world” driving range from full charge, is around 130km ( if you don’t want to be driving at under 10% charge left) this is completely unexceptable... furthermore, the constant stress of having to do ‘guesstimating’ ruins the driving experience. BIG THUMBS DOWN PEUGEOT!!!
Just because he doesn't know how to show the battery % doesn't mean the car doesn't have it. It can be shown briefly on any dash option by pressing the button on the end of the indicator stalk, or full-time (on the energy profile dash screen he keeps showing in his videos) by pressing the same button.

With the new BMS update its approx 98-99kw until 22% ish, and around 75kw until about 70-71%, but drops to about 50-55kw over about 71-72%.
One third of the Audi!! What’s the figures for the two in usd?
They should add a battery percent gauge instead of that inaccurate GOM
Need to check the app
I have a e-208 and I find it very realistic for my driving. 👍🏻
If you press the button on the end of the windshield wiper the display shows you average consumption and battery percentage.
Just press the button at the end of the right hand lever behind the steering wheel for battery percent.
Kan du teste elton appen med en elbil du kan koble til appen. Peugeot e 2008 kan kobles til elton med live batteri
Winter test please!

Love my petrol 2008. But i will not buy any peugeot electric cars until they make one with at least 450km of range
Your title is misleading, I thought you want to say 2008 have 615km range in one charge.
I literally do what the title says and I explain it in detail in the first 30 seconds of the video 🙈😂 Couldn’t be less misleading if I tried!
Silly to make a car that has a range less than 321 kilometers (200 miles) .
Why is that?

E C4 same platform and more efficient
I would dare to say no, it isn’t. The e-C4 is also a bit bigger but great lines but it is not a low car by no means.
@@Sherukka but it has been tested. Please watch yt videos. C4 has less consumtion and therfore more range. It is in official specs.

You are wrong mate... from the test is more like 200km, and il you drive it combined city/highway you reach 240-250 realistic.
Given Kris' data I calculated that the range is 152km - at 90km/h - when you drive between 10-80% SoC for optimal charging conditions.
130km maybe at high speeds, but all EVs are terrible at high speeds.
Just because he doesn't know how to show the battery % doesn't mean the car doesn't have it.
It can be shown briefly on any dash option by pressing the button on the end of the indicator stalk, or full-time (on the energy profile dash screen he keeps showing in his videos) by pressing the same button.
Norwegian and high speed is a bit of a contradiction.
How?
This car has a terrible driving range, especially in cold weather… It’s one of the worst of the market!
