It has been three years since the Peugeot 208 appeared on the market. Introduced in 2019 at the Geneva Motor Show, the city car has since won the hearts of motorists, while it regularly ranks first in the ranking of the best-selling models in France. A real success for a city car, which is available in thermal and electric versions. And yet it cannot be said that this is a given. And it’s not for nothing that the zero-emission version of the star of the “Lev” brand costs from 34,550 euros, the environmental bonus of 6,000 euros is not deducted. But not enough to scare away customers who still appreciate this Renault Clio rival, which settles for a hybrid engine. And undoubtedly, the Socho city car should please even more, and its price will decrease by several hundred euros.

New treatment
Indeed, the assortment is enriched with whole a new treatment called Like. The least we can say is that it is quite interesting, but costs €1,500 less than the Active version, or €33,000. And at that price, the gift is still pretty generous, as it includes a 7-inch color touchscreen, while it’s 5-inch and black-and-white on the thermal Like. Added to this hands-free launch, 16-inch steel wheels, an electric handbrake or even upholstery with orange stitching, black fender flares and a tall center console with an armrest. A very good gift for a city car, but that’s not all!
More autonomy
Really, Peugeot E-208 is not satisfied with the expansion of the assortment. Indeed, it also benefits in autonomy thanks to a battery with a capacity of 50 to 52 kWh. It is enough for him to travel up to 400 kilometers on a single charge against 372 kilometers at the moment. This development is currently only available on this version, but the rest of the range will likely be able to benefit from it in the coming months. Note that this e-208 also unlocks the new Mode 3 charging cable, which will be offered for other models at a later date.
