The new gearboxes that accompany the new engines fitted to the Peugeot 5008 and Peugeot 3008 models reduce fuel consumption and increase the efficiency that these powertrains already offer, meeting the demanding standards of the Euro 6 regulations
From now on, the Peugeot 3008 and Peugeot 5008 ranges will be strengthened with the addition of the EAT6 automatic gearbox with torque converter, which comes fitted to the new petrol and diesel engines joining the equipment of these ranges from the French brand. The information we have received points to two powerful engines that comply with the demanding EURO 6 regulations.
The petrol engine is the 1.6L THP 165 S&S EAT6, a powertrain that combines very attractive performance with reduced environmental impact, being an engine designed to be more efficient, with the advantages offered by elements such as the Stop & Start system and the EAT6 automatic gearbox. With a maximum torque of 240 Nm at 1,400 rpm.
The power of both engines allows them to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.6 seconds in the case of the Peugeot 3008, and 9.8 seconds in the Peugeot 5008. In the case of the diesel engine, it is the 1.6L BlueHDi 120 CV, which uses an SCR catalyst and the FAP with additive. The average consumption of these engines is 4.6 litres per 100 kilometres, with emissions of 109 g/km.
The EAT6 gearbox (Efficient Automatic Transmission 6) is a new generation of torque converter which, according to the French manufacturer, stands out for its efficiency, reliability, driving comfort and performance. It features Quickshift technology, which facilitates rapid gear changes, carried out smoothly. This automatic gearbox eliminates internal friction and uses lock-up converters that prevent slippage.
With the incorporation of these engines and the new gearbox, the range of these two models is strengthened, seeking improved performance and efficiency. This change allows consumption figures close to those of a manual gearbox, but with the advantages and comfort of an automatic.
