FREE NATIONWIDE DELIVERY Peugeot upgraded the E-208’s exterior looks. But part of the appeal is that there’s very little to mark it out as an electric car - if you didn’t spot the green flash on the number plate or the discreet ‘E’ badging, you’d think it was just a regular petrol 208. It does look smart, though, with distinctive ‘triple-claw’ LED daytime running lights front and rear, smart diamond-cut alloy wheels and even a homage to the old Peugeot 205 in the shape of its rear window. The GT model INCLUDES 17-inch wheels, a 3D-effect instrument cluster, fancier LED headlights and full artificial leather upholstery. The Peugeot E-208 is in its element around town, its responsive electric motor and nippy performance allow you to zip into gaps in traffic with ease. The regenerative braking means you don’t have to touch the brake pedal much, which is a good thing as it can feel a bit squishy at first and takes some time to get used to. The e-208 is refined and quiet at motorway speeds, it’s got enough power to overtake slower traffic and will happily cruise along at 70mph even when fully loaded. The large front pillars aren’t such an issue here, and you get cruise control, lane keep assist and driver attention warning as standard. GT trims come with the Driver Assist Pack which also includes adaptive cruise control, which is great on long motorway journeys.
