Longest range electric family car - Peugeot e-3008 Review UK 4K 

like Tesla lol

​@@xantherick Exactly 😂

Couldn't agree more!

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching

Thank you for watching. Have a wonderful Sunday.

I’m pretty sure it will easily. Question is, can it comfortably go past the 300 mile mark?

It’s around the 3.5 miles per kWh so 98kwh battery should get a range of 340

@@barryrathbone It certainly won't be that in winter.

they guess you will push with hands rest of miles

@@Mr11ESSE111 😄

I've driven a Renault EV for 4 years with no electrical issues... which surprised me tbf.

Land-Rover seems to be the leader in shitty electrics these days.

That's because you bought a BMW lol .

@@sharonec5419 I bought it for the badge because I'm very shallow

@@willielarsson9651 lol

If they’re carrying the LPG across to the latest Duster, then I will likely test that in the next few months.

Yes apologies I am aware that it works that way but if that was the case, you’d think all brands would be consistently poor/good but some are much further off the claimed figures than others. If you get what I mean?

@@AutoSocialUK I know that some brands adjust their numbers (Tesla) and I know that the measuring process is off by different margins because it fails to account for technological differences in vehicles. It’s PURELY a laboratory calculation. In the US, the EPA uses an actual stretch of a road to calculate economy. It fails sometimes as well because not every stretch is the same, of course, but it’s generally more accurate because it’s a real driving test instead of a purely theoretical one. While the WLTP is more reliable than the NEDC test it replaced, it’s still awfully ambitious in EV ranges. For example, Gen 2 Nissan Leaf with the 40 kWh battery can go 151 miles on the EPA cycle, but 170 miles on the WLTP. The real range seems to be around 100-110 miles.

Yes it is!

What do you think of the colour? Considering ordering in this colour but we can't see it yet here in real life...​@@AutoSocialUK

I don’t think they necessarily lie but the testing is not accurate in real life

Manufacturers test to the WLTP standards. It’s not them that ‘lie’, it’s the tests themselves that are flawed. This applies across all cars. We need to get the test itself changed to be more realistic. In the meantime use the EV database site, it’s very accurate.

Do you know a competitor that offers this level of refinement, tech and range for 45k?

@@Oklm23 No, I don't at the moment, but I'm sure I can find one if I look.

@@genepatrick4232 Well please do and report back to us 😉

Thank you 👍🏼

I do 😂 I was recording the voiceovers in my car at 1am last night and my little dyslexic brain was already asleep.

👍👍👍😊

Not sure. For example Renault is able to build an electric car in 10 hours now because their factory is fully robotized. They can have the same price than eastern europe or China or Tesla now. PSA builds its own gigafactory for batteries to lower costs or uses more and more robots.

The Europe is able to compete with China with fully robotized factories. China is forced to increase its wages for chinese workers. China is even competed with others asiatic countries.

Much less in the cold, in the rain, uphill, or against windy conditions, all things EV's struggle with. There may be a "safe" 200 mile range, in the UK you'd have to plan carefully to avoid having to charge for hours, or wait for hours then charge for hours. Then after 3 years, if you're mad enough to have bought it, you'll be lucky to see 30% of your cash back, and by then the battery will holid a solid 10% less charge than new....

@@FirstLast-rh9jw yeah i’ll just stick to my tesla lmao. Every other ev genuinly sucks ass

@@FirstLast-rh9jw everything you said is total bollocks

Nope, all verifiably true. That you don't want to believe it probably means you've bought an EV and can't bring yourself to admit the mistake. ​@@timrothwell33

You seem to be confusing the term "verifiably true" with "total lies"@@FirstLast-rh9jw

Yes I agree, I wish the electric models were below £40k

Because even if we believed that to be true, which I do not. It can certainly not be proven and therefor I would not be speaking about it. I’m also unclear as to why electric cars will be worthless in 7-10 years. People talk about EVs like they’re new and yet there are people driving around in 10 year old + 200,000 mile electric cars with no issues.

Fair enough!

You could say that about every car on the roads though? Batteries have shown no sign of excess wear that we should be worried about and the TELSA was never an inspiring design to start with 😂 hahaha I believe her name is Latisha, mine is Natisha. But maybe that is where there got some inspiration.

🤦‍♂️

Range figures are WLTP. The WLTP driving cycle is divided into four parts with different average speeds: low, medium, high and extra high. Each part contains a variety of driving phases, stops, acceleration and braking phases. All vehicle makers uses the same test, it’s a standard. It’s actually not an estimation. The numbers given are for what the car can do in the WLTP test conditions. I would say that the range is more than enough. You don’t drive from full to empty battery in one go, you must likely need to take a break sometime during the drive. And then you can charge the car. Electric cars are nicer to drive than diesels, they are faster, has better climate systems, they are less noisy, and they have zero exhaust.

1. Can you name one ICE model that consistently hits its WLTP economy/emission figures? Doesn’t make it right, I agree the system again needs changing but it’s definitely not a reason to go ICE. 2. How do people start to NOT buy EV? Also, the sales growth has slowed down admittedly but that’s most likely been down to a successful misinformation campaign you’ve fallen for hook, line and sinker. 3. All modern cars cost an arm and a leg to repair. A new engine or gearbox isn’t cheap either. Brexit hasn’t helped parts supply, further upping repair costs. I note you haven’t found that in your research. Perhaps the sources of your information aren’t particularly reliable. 4. Insurance. I admit it’s subjective but I’ve just bought an EV worth twice as much as the 5 year old hot hatch I just got rid of. EV has more power and faster 0-62 yet insurance didn’t cost a single penny more. I’d worried about the insurance increase as I’d probably heard the same rubbish as you, but I can tell you from personal experience, it isn’t strictly true. 5. A little embarrassing for you this one, sorry. I’ll be kind. Regen braking, especially one pedal driving like you get on most electric cars mean you don’t have to touch the friction brakes at all for potentially hundreds or thousands of miles. Regen doesn’t emit anything, it’s literally using the motor in reverse to charge the battery. Tyres - smoother power delivery mean they can last longer on EVs. Tusker, a leading leasing firm have stated that there is so far no evidence that EVs eat through tyres faster than their ICE counterparts. Literally nothing you’ve said holds water. PLEASE do your own research and ignore what you’ve read in the tabloid press. They only print what they think you want to hear. I own both ICE and EV so have no bias. Only for the truth and facts.

@@S4MM7ify could not have said that any better, spot on with everything you said. It’s depressing seeing comments like this all the time from ppl who are believing the lies.

I love really stupid comments like this. I gather he just wants a reply. So I will oblige. Peugeots have always had good road handling - how good varies with the particular model. Of all the negatives I have read about Peugeots , this is the first time I have heard the mention about poor road handling (50 years of rally wins = poor handling - I don't think so.). Flimsy cars - not sure exactly what is meant by that however our family has driven at least 10 million kms in Peugeots. Never noticed any flimsiness. In fact most modes are extremely robust. If they weren't they would never have had rally success. If you want more specific information just reply and I'll provide it. But please - try to make sensible comments.

Piffle.

Spot on, and that that the French seem to be having more say is the nail in the coffin for the brand, would have never happened under Sergio M;s watch

I have a Stellantis EV, as a company car. No way would I buy one with my own money, as they are massively overpriced at list price. There are huge discounts available on most, up to 20%, but even then too high. The car I have is a really nice car, but it would have to be 50% of the list price to interest me as a private buyer.
