Peugeot has revealed the final jigsaw piece in the firm’s EV puzzle with its new E-408.
The standard car comes with a choice of hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, but the electric version will complete the set, offering a wider choice of engine and motor setups to buyers.
The E-408 sits on the firm’s EMP2 platform which is the same as on the smaller 308 and Vauxhall Astra.
In terms of looks, the 408 has always been a svelte and stylish-looking car and the electrified version looks almost identical to the conventional car – which is no bad thing to those drivers who don’t want an electric car which shouts about its battery-powered setup.
Prices for the UK have not been revealed yet, however, there will be two trim levels available – Allure and GT. In France, these versions will cost the equivalent of £36,500 for the former and £38,200 for the latter. Further specifications are still yet to be revealed, but deliveries in the UK will start as early as the beginning of next year.
