2020 Peugeot 208   Now With Electric Power !!On a new platform that is lighter than the previous car's design, and provides better rigidity and superior acoustics, the new Supermini 208 features a striking design. The stylists were particularly bold with the 208 design, with the nose showcasing an intricate grille design and an led "dagger" that runs from the headlights deep into the front bumper. Inside the 208 is a configured Peugeot panel with a standard 7-inch touchscreen that can be upgraded to 10 inches.

Aside from the bold 208 look, Peugeot have dedicated themselves to creating a compact hatchback that should be useful for driving. The new platform is 30 kg lighter and equipped with four engine options. Three output grades of Peugeot's 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine (56, 75 and 97 kW) will be offered, and the most powerful turbocharged engine will drive the front wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The entry-level 56kw engine is not driven and shifts gear with a five-speed manual box, while the 75kW mid-range option offers both six-speed and eight-speed automatic shifting. A single alternative fuel engine, a 1.5-liter 75 kW turbodiesel, will also be available. Peugeot is actively promoting electrification in its new Supermini product strategy, which debuts the e-208 series. Peugeot claims the e-208 will run at 340 km, and is powered by a 100 kW electric motor providing power flow from a 50 kW / h battery pack.With 260 Nm of torque, it should also be light and fast at low speeds.

When charging 100 kWh, it should recover 80% of the battery capacity within 30 minutes after fast charging. Peugeot also guarantees that the e-208 battery will retain the ability to recharge at 70% energy density after eight years of use at 160,000 km, raising doubts about battery life for potential electric car owners.
