The autonomy of the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 will be better than expected

The Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4, a rechargeable hybrid version of the brand's best-selling SUV in the Lion, has been homologated according to the WLTP cycle, and Peugeot has just announced the results. Figures that prove better than expected when Peugeot's Hybrid4 range – which will also include the 508 and 508 SW – has been announced, both in terms of autonomy and CO2 emissions.

The values ​​obtained during the homologation cycle, which are, however, relative to the use of a vehicle over a long period of time and a long distance, and in particular for plug-in hybrids, report 29 g / km of CO2 rejected. and a consumption of 1.3 l / 100 km. Of course, these values ​​are obtained according to a cycle that allows the Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 to drive mostly all-electric, and therefore drastically reduce its consumption.

Indeed, its battery of 13.2 kWh allows him to drive up to 59 km in 100% electric, a few kilometers more than what was originally announced (50 km). Similarly, CO2 emissions were reported at less than 49 g / km, which is largely successful. In actual driving, the electric range will however be closer to the initial announcements than this homologation in the WLTP cycle, and the planned 50 km will already be a correct distance, and in line with what we generally see plug-in hybrids.

This Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 will be based on the 200 horsepower PureTech petrol engine and two electric motors totaling 110 horsepower, placed at the front and rear. The rechargeable SUV will be a 4-wheel drive 300 horsepower, driven by the 8-speed automatic gearbox dear to the mark. It is already available to order at an entry price of 43,800 euros and will arrive this fall in the concessions of the Lion.
