PLUG-IN HYBRID: BENEFITS & HOW IT WORKS

The advantages of the 100% electric mode of plug-in hybrids

zero engine noise

Our electric vehicles produce little to no noise whilst driving.

zero gear changes

Our new electric cars are fully automatic making driving even easier.

zero engine vibration

2022 electric cars have a smooth and steady drive.

zero CO2 emissions when driving

Our electric vehicles produce no CO2 when driving.

HOW DO PEUGEOT PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLES WORK?

PEUGEOT plug-in hybrid cars combine electric technology for daily journeys with a range of up to 39 milesThe PEUGEOT plug-in hybrid range offers a range of between 26 and 39 miles depending on the model.  and petrol use for long journeys.

EMP2 PLATFORM

The new EMP2 Common Modular Platform (CMP) has been developed in order to perfectly integrate the specific components of each energy, without compromising on performance.

ADVANTAGES OF THE PLUG-IN HYBRID ENGINE

Combination of an electric motor & petrol engine

OPTIMAL AND IMPERCEPTIBLE TRANSITIONS

To alternate between electric and combustion engines, the torque converter of the combustion engine versions is replaced by a wet multi-plate clutch to provide 60 Nm more torque and more responsiveness.

ELECTRIFIED REAR AXLE

On the HYBRID4 version, the multi-link rear axle is equipped with a 110 hp/83 kW electric motor to provide 4-wheel drive, without impacting on passenger space.

PETROL COMBUSTION ENGINE

The 1.6 PureTech engine has been adapted, with an alternator-starter and a specific cooling front panel. It produces 180 hp on HYBRID and 200 hp on HYBRID4.

NEW ELECTRIC AUTOMATIC GEARBOX

The PureTech engine is paired with the new 8-speed e-EAT8 automatic gearbox. Combined with the gearbox, an electric motor produces 110 hp/81 kW on the front axle.

PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE BATTERY

LITHIUM-ION TYPE

Our plug-in hybrid vehicles use a high-voltage. Lithium-ion type (300V) and is located under the rear seats on both HYBRID and HYBRID4 (4-wheel drive) versions. The battery has a capacity of between 11.8 kWhor 508 and 508 SW Plug-in Hybrids and 13.2 kWhFor 3008 Plug-in Hybrid . 

These batteries come with an 8-year or 100,000 mile warrantyFor customers who have subscribed to a service contract, a certificate attesting to the level of battery charging performance may be made available after each periodic overhaul of the vehicle. This certificate, when reselling the vehicle, will be a guarantee of battery performance for the new owner .

In order to optimise CO2 consumption as much as possible, use 100% electric driving for urban journeys, reaching speeds up to 83 mph. Regular charging ensures you can enjoy electric mode anytime.

Charge your vehicle every day so that you can enjoy 100% electric mode at any time!

ENRICHED DRIVING

For renewed pleasure

NEW BRAKE FUNCTION

The driver can choose to activate a new Brake function that allows the vehicle to actively decelerate by lifting the accelerator. It also allows the battery to be recharged, such as when travelling downhill. In Drive mode, a single rearward pull on the gearbox selector activates Brake mode.

4 DRIVING MODES
 

  • Electric: default mode, make the most of all the benefits of an electric vehicle. 
  • Hybrid: allows you to drive both on electric and internal combustion engines, depending on your driving style and the type of road you are driving on. 
  • Sport: enjoy maximum engine torque performance with the combination of both energies. 
  • Comfort: combines hybrid mode with the comfort of active suspension to ensure better road grip, while maintaining optimum comfort.
NEW e-SAVE FUNCTION

With the e-SAVE function, the driver can set aside a reserve of electrical energy to be used when desired. This function can, for example, keep a reserve of electrical energy in anticipation of a restricted emissions area.

Accessible from the e-SAVE menu on the touchscreen, simply select Zero Emission mode on the driving mode selector for 100% electric driving.

PEUGEOT i-COCKPIT®

The PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® incorporates driving information in the driver’s field of vision. It is fully customisable and configurable.

A power meter to the right of the digital instrument panel is made up of 3 zones:

  • ECO for energy-efficient driving 
  • POWER for more dynamic driving 
  • CHARGE for energy recovery phases 
     

There are two gauges on either side of the instrument panel: one for fuel, the other for electric. The available range, in miles, is indicated below these gauges.

e-EAT8 GEARBOX

The PureTech engine is paired with the new 8-speed e-EAT8 automatic gearbox. Combined with the gearbox, an electric motor produces 100 hp/80 kW on the front axle.
