WE NEED MORE ELECTRIC ESTATES! PEUGEOT E-308 SW REVIEW 2024

EV Channels Review

The Peugeot e-308 SW is presented as a stylish and practical alternative to the growing number of electric SUVs. The reviewer praises its striking design, particularly the rear, and highlights its significant boot space (548 liters, expandable to nearly 1,500 liters), making it a strong contender for families or those needing cargo capacity. The interior is commended for its driver-focused layout and high-quality materials, creating a premium ambiance. However, the reviewer notes that rear legroom is somewhat tight and the central console intrudes on space for a middle passenger. Performance is described as adequate, with a sport mode offering 156 bhp, though the reviewer expresses disappointment with the fake exhaust trim on an electric vehicle. The primary concern is the claimed range of around 250 miles, which is significantly less than the new platform e-308 SUV, and real-world figures are expected to be lower (around 220 miles). While the car is lauded for its engaging drive and firm suspension, the price point, especially for the GT trim, is considered high, potentially making rivals like the Tesla Model 3 a more compelling, albeit less stylish, option.
