Stellantis has long been one of the manufacturers that most commitment to electrification in all its brands. Currently we see how almost all models have some hybrid, plug-in hybrid or electric version; something that will be more noticeable in the years to come. In fact, we already have confirmation of two of the most anticipated specimens due to their composition. It’s about the Peugeot e-3008 and e-5008the electric versions of the SUVs, which will be revealed in the second half of the year and will be ready by 2024.
The main novelty is that both models will be the first to launch the STLA Medium platform of Stellantis. It is a highly innovative architecture that will be present in the next generations of many of the group’s vehicles. In addition, there is already talk that the Peugeot 3008 and 5008 They will also be available with combustion engines. in some markets, so that platform can also be adapted to more mainstream mechanicals before a full transition to electric is made.
These e-3008 and e-5008 are only two of the five electric launches that Peugeot is preparing for 2025. The lineup is completed by the already presented Peugeot e-038 and e-308 SW; in addition to the Peugeot e-408. SUVs will be the most prominent for the segment they target and for their new technology and propulsion systems. They will be available with front-wheel drive, but there will also be a dual-motor all-wheel drive version. They will also enjoy a autonomy of up to 700 kilometers Thanks to the new platform.
To achieve this, there is talk of batteries ranging from 87 to 104 kWh, a capacity superior to those currently on the market. Although, until 2030 (its electrification horizon) arrives, Peugeot will also work on other systems. They already anticipate a new 48V mild hybrid system with which their cars will be able to do up to 50% electric driving in the city and which will reduce their emissions by around 15%. It will be linked to gasoline engines of 100 or 136 CV, being with a double-clutch automatic transmission.
