Peugeot has released the teaser of its upcoming E-3008, and it has sparked curiosity everywhere. The E-3008, which is scheduled to make its debut on September 12, is not consciously present at the ongoing Munich Motor Show. Is it a strategic move or just for privilege? Only Peugeot knows this.
The teaser video coming to social media streams gives car enthusiasts a taste of what’s to come. Looks like Peugeot isn’t backing down on styling. The exterior of the E-3008 does not hesitate to make a statement. The stylish coupe-SUV shape promises a visual feast when paired with LED headlights and daytime running lights. The black front grille interspersed with blue touches and the latest Peugeot emblem add to its distinctive character.
Leaked images of E-3008 prototypes have further fueled speculation. A roof-mounted spoiler and LED taillights mark the vehicle’s balance between sporty and sophisticated.
Now let’s talk about the interior. Remember the days when a car’s dashboard was just a dashboard? The E-3008 takes this one step further with its huge 21-inch curved screen. (Like BMW’s new generation vehicles) It’s not just any screen. It combines the instrument cluster and the infotainment screen. Added to this is a head-up display and another display that controls media and air conditioning. And no, Peugeot hasn’t forgotten the small but important touches – the tiny steering wheel (sort of signature), two cup holders, a wireless charging pad and even a scroll wheel for media volume. What’s more, the ambient lighting system promises an in-cab experience like no other.
However, the beauty of the E-3008 isn’t just about its looks. Stellantis’ STLA Medium platform will be the foundation. While specs are hard to come by, rumors in the auto backdrop point to three potential powertrains. One could even have two engines with all-wheel drive. And for those who are always worried about how hard they can push an electric vehicle before the next charge, the E-3008 can offer a pleasant surprise. According to rumors in the city, the range-centric version can cover a distance of up to 700 km without straining for a battery boost.
As the world gasps for the official reveal, one thing is clear. Peugeot E-3008 not just another electric SUV; It’s proof that Peugeot is still in the game and isn’t afraid to bend the rules. That’s not bad for a company that started out with coffee grinders and bicycles in the 19th century and then continued to offer us a few iconic vehicles before the electric vehicle revolution turned the world upside down.
