In 2019, the second generation of the Peugeot 208 was officially presented, when it was one of the main stars of the Geneva Motor Show alongside the Renault Clio. But unlike its competitor, the city car “Lev” is also available in a 100% electric version and does not use a hybrid. pond the best-selling car in France, along with all engines, the Sochalienne underwent a minor mid-career restyling at the start of the summer to stay competitive with the competition. And it was in September that this new version went on sale.

Price drop

The latter then cost from €35,300 in entry-level Active trim, while its top-spec GT variant started at €39,300. But it seems that the French manufacturer has decided to reconsider its strategy, as well as its price positioning. As such, the electric city car now costs from €34,850 in active trim, a slight price cut of €450, which puts it below the symbolic €35,000 mark. Thus, the Peugeot e-208 still qualifies for the €5,000 environmental bonus, which even allows it to pass less than 30,000 euros thanks to this help.

Only electric

You should know that only the electric version will benefit from this small price drop the thermal option does not change one iota By the way, the city car starts at 19,200 euros in its initial version, equipped with a 75-horsepower PureTech in combination with a five-speed manual transmission. From now on, the most efficient version in the electric version costs from €38,850 in the range-topping GT variant. The declared power is 156 horsepower and 400 kilometers of autonomy.
