Motors & Performance
We've tested the 73kWh, single-motor Peugeot E-3008, and Nic's even been living with one for a few months. The E-3008 is smooth and quiet, but acceleration is far from startling. Taking 8.8 seconds to get from zero to 62mph, some rivals beat that. Also, the E-3008 is very heavy, at more than 2100kg. Rivals such as the Volkswagen ID.4, Skoda Enyaq and Renault Scenic all feel noticeably quicker from a standing start, but more importantly are zippier at mid to high speeds – the kind you're doing on a motorway and need a quick extra burst of acceleration when overtaking.
At the car's international launch we also drove the forthcoming twin-motor version. It isn't startlingly different in character, although it has usefully more acceleration to call on, with a 0-62mph time of 6.4 seconds. We'd say you're probably better off saving your money and going with the single motor. If it's poor on-road weather conditions in winter that you're worried about, using winter tyres on a front-wheel drive car will be much better for safety, traction and finances than spending the extra cash on an unnecessarily powerful four-wheel drive wearing summer tyres...
Drive & Handling
The E-3008 a refined car at town speeds, and the suspension soothes away most bumps, although potholes and sharp speed bumps do send a proper thump through the cabin. There’s no doubt that the E-3008 gives a firmer ride compared to a Skoda Enyaq or Renault Scenic, although we'd also say that the Peugeot is more comfortable than a Tesla Model Y.
The hard ride would be fine if the E-3008 was fun to drive, but it isn’t. The steering, though light and easy to use, gives little to no feedback so it's difficult to know what the front wheels are doing when you pick up speed on a country road. If it's a sportier drive that you're after, the Kia EV6 is way better, and the Volkswagen ID.4 and Skoda Enyaq also give a more connected feeling on a decent road. Body control in the E-3008 is good, though, and the car feels safe, planted and predictable – everything you’d really want from a family car, after all.
