The Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008 now available in the 325 Dual Motor version

The electric models of Peugeot now have one more variant: the new E-3008 and E-5008, two fully electric SUVs that will benefit from a new, more powerful, sportier all-wheel drive version, accompanied by a special launch edition finish that includes extended standard equipment.

This version is the new 325 Dual Motor, made up of an electric motor on the front axle with 213 CV of power and another motor on the rear axle delivering 112 CV, resulting in a combined output of 325 CV and 509 Nm of torque sent to all four wheels. With this configuration the Peugeot E-3008 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6 seconds, while the E-5008 does so in 6.5 seconds; from 80 to 100 km/h they take 3.8 seconds and 4 seconds respectively.

Also part of this electric system is the NMC lithium-ion battery, which has a capacity of 73 kWh. With this battery the Peugeot E-3008 achieves a range of 490 kilometres, and the Peugeot E-5008 is rated slightly lower at 467 kilometres, figures homologated on the combined cycle under WLTP. Once discharged, both models can go from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes using ultra-fast chargers.

Due to this increase in power, and so that it translates into better behaviour in both models, the engineers of Peugeot have specifically calibrated elements such as the stiffness of the anti-roll bars, the springs and dampers, paying special attention both to the calibration of the power steering and to the chassis itself. It is also worth noting that, to make the most of the engine’s characteristics in any circumstance, it features four driving modes:

• Normal Mode: For everyday efficiency. Priority is given to the front motor, with power limited to 313 CV and maximum torque to 450 Nm. If the driver requires it, under strong acceleration the rear motor and wheels engage, delivering maximum power and torque.
• 4WD Mode: Both motors work with a 50-50 power split between the axles and, together with systems such as ESP and traction control adopting a specific strategy, greater grip is achieved on slippery and difficult surfaces. Maximum power and torque are available.
• Sport Mode: Both motors work together with a 60-40 power split with priority to the front, and the steering and accelerator are set up in a sporty configuration for a sharper response.
• ECO Mode: Priority is given to the front motor with power limited to 213 CV and maximum torque to 343 Nm. During strong acceleration, the rear motor and wheels are activated automatically and both motors deliver their full power. The air conditioning and accelerator pedal also operate in ECO configuration.

Both the Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008 in their 325 Dual Motor version arrive on the market associated with the special Launch Edition finish, which is based on the GT trim. As a reminder, this includes standard equipment such as the following:
