About the Peugeot e-208 lease
The e-208 is an all-electric hatchback offering from French automaker Peugeot. Experts in compact and nippy city cars, Peugeot's electric version is no different. With a distinctive exterior and sharp bodylines, the e-208 has an uncharacteristically imposing road presence for both a hatchback and a Peugeot.
The cabin is spacious and benefits from the 5-door configuration. making the e-208 a very practical option for city driving and the occasional longer journey. If you're looking for something a bit bigger then the Peugeot e-2008 or Peugeot e-3008 might be lease options to explore.
Tech-wise there's a 3D digital instrument panel which compliments the futuristic feel of the EV, offering extensive driver information at a glance. Three driving modes let the driver tune the e-208's behaviour; Charge, Eco and Power. Each operates as the name suggests, with Eco prioritising range and a smooth drive.
Charging the Peugeot e-208
The Peugeot e-208 is offered with a single battery size: a 50kWh pack.
In terms of range, this gives the e-208 an official WLTP range of 211 miles. At DriveElectric however, we do our own tests to determine a more realistic range for every vehicle we lease, including Peugeot e-208 lease offer. We concluded that drivers are more likely to achieve around 165 miles per charge, which is still more than enough for most daily journeys.
The e-208 uses the European standard of connector; the Type 2 and CCS. Charging at home via a standard 7kW wall-box charger will fully charge the Peugeot in around 7 hours and 30 minutes. Most customers plug-in overnight and take advantage of cheaper energy prices during the off-peak hours.
When using a 100kW rapid charger found at service stations, car parks, hotels etc. the e-208 can go from a 10-80% charge in just 30 minutes
