The verdict

What's good

Identical footprint to petrol 208 means it parks anywhere a small car can
i-Cockpit raised binnacle gives a distinctive, uncluttered driving view
Cabin NVH is noticeably quieter than the ICE version at all speeds
Euro NCAP 5-star structure is the same as its petrol sibling

What's not

240-mile range is below average for the class in real-world cold weather
DC fast-charge speed caps lower than most rivals — long top-ups on a trip
Charging infrastructure outside urban Europe can leave owners searching
Rear seat space is cramped for this price bracket

The engine

Electric

Single-Motor Electric

The e-208 and e-2008 deliver brisk, quiet around-town pace from a single front motor, with the relaxed low-speed torque that makes small EVs feel livelier than their numbers suggest.

They ride on the e-CMP electric version of the Common Modular Platform, jointly developed by PSA (now Stellantis) and China's Dongfeng for compact cars across multiple Stellantis brands.

The very same electric drive unit is shared across Peugeot, Citroën, Opel/Vauxhall and DS small cars, a hallmark of Stellantis' modular strategy.
Peugeot traces its electric-car lineage back to the wartime VLV, a tiny battery-powered city car the brand built in the early 1940s.
The shared platform was designed from the outset to take either combustion or electric power on the same production line.
