Peugeot's electrification process also includes the new Hybrid range. It debuts immediately on the new one 208, while in the second quarter of the year it will also be available on other models in the brand's line-up. We therefore start from the 208, which can now be equipped with engines Hybrid 48V with 100 HP and 136 HPcombined with a new 6-speed electrified dual clutch gearbox that incorporates a 28 HP electric motor.
Efficient battery
The powertrain is completed by a battery that recharges while driving, and which brings with it a series of significant advantages, which are not limited to offering additional torque at low revs: Peugeot in fact also estimates the reduction of up to 15% in fuel consumption compared to the petrol equivalent, thanks to the operation of the 48 V hybrid system in urban driving more than 50% of the time in 100% electric mode with zero emissions. The two engines mentioned above replace the PureTech 130 EAT8 and the PureTech 100 EAT8.
Not just 208
