Theyve always designed beautifully designed cars but this is even more beautifully crafted and designed. The Ford Puma is just a mish mash of a Jaguar E Pace and a Kia Sportage. This is just original and beautifully designed.

[@panzerkami2381]

Agreed. They are especially silly when you consider that their hero Elon himself has said that he welcomes competition since he knows that Tesla can't possibly electrify the entire car industry. In spite of this you seem to have more comments from angry Tesla fans than from the regular EV-hating trolls under most EV reviews.

[@thealphamana8864]

@@SomfilmsFHD honestly amazing car overall great performance, practical, spacious and just a simple car not too complicated being an electric 2021 car.

[@milanvillan]

I have the 2008 EAT 8 1.2L GT Line and love it, get so many compliments.

[@itsfahys]

That Steering wheel is very easy to hold with the Grips designed to fit your hand. Its in the Older Peugeot 3008 and its really nice, so theyve obviously just put it into the e 2008 rather than any design error. Nice review.

[@dancooper2072]

I love the small steering wheel. I went from a Peugeot to a Seat and Instantly missed the small wheel. Not sure what it is, it feels more responsive and alive. Also the puretech engine takes some beating, far better than most TSI engines, that seem rather lethargic.

[@ayrtonjoshuapoliah736]

I love Rorys Reviews of cars one of the finest in the world

[@CarlBaravelli]

Got this car a week ago. Loving it so far. I got the standard 7 inch screen which has those toggle buttons on the side which is easier to navigate. Given that Peugeot design its apps to fit on the 7 inch screen and not the 10 inch, the 10 inch does not make sense

[@whitewalker9622]

I love the i-cockpit! Keep up the good work Peugeot. I´m always hitting my leggs on the steering wheel on entering, now I don´t. And the steering feel is great, it´s fun. And I can see the instruments a lot better now as well, before either the edges or the top have always been a problem for me..

[@jamiep61]

I enjoyed watching the Video Review. Looks very stylish. I particularly like the small steering wheel

[@ivo4357]

"not everybody has £60000 to spend on a car". Very true, but even if you do have the money, not everybody WANTS to spend £60000 on a car. If that's the thing that makes you happy, go for it, but to many people a car is a practical object to get you from A to B. So if you can do that safely in comfort and quick enough in a nice looking car that costs half of that amount, there's really no need to spend more.

[@georgewalker7061]

Rory where did you get the 300 Nm figure from. 134 bhp / 136 ps / 100 kw. And it is 192 lb/ft , which is 260Nm. You are right to question the range. Just a driver, no luggage, and in ECO with AC off and good back roads and you can get over 200 miles. Take it up 70 mph roads, put people and stuff in it and you are going to be charging before 140 miles, with 10 miles range available if you are lucky.

[@davecroden9793]

Love your reviews Rory, you’re a great presenter. But this car! How annoying are those buttons that you can’t see at night. And that steering wheel. Well done for calling Peugeot out.

[@onetrueone]

Those buttons and the screen totally ruin it for me. The performance is expected but 9 seconds in 2020 is quite quite slow.

[@HologramJones]

That instrument visual problem. Suddenly the old Citroen one spoke steering wheel becomes a stroke of genius. Also, the steering wheel in the original C4 with the fixed centre makes it so much easier to find the controls if your wheel is turned or turning. But I have to say. I tried the Peugeot steering wheel and loved it for handling.

[@michaelfield533]

So which would you buy the e 2008 or the Citroen e c4 ? Or something else in this price range cheers

[@zJoriz]

Some thoughts. 1) must be nice to have money for this sort of thing. 2) regen braking once you lift off: fine. But do remember your brake lights are poking the driver behind you into defensive action every time you consciously or unconsciously do that. Which, I can say from experience, is *exhausting*. Regarding that: I feel as though there should be three types of brake light on every new car: slowing down/regen (just left & right brake lights), braking (including the top bar), crash stop (left & right, top bar rapidly blinking). 3) this guy could sell me anything. Which is kinda scary now I think about it.

[@mattmurdoch4345]

My wife has just got one as her work car and after driving it for a few weeks I’d agree with everything he says

First time I've seen one of your reviews and I'm impressed with your no nonsense straight to the point review. Great work!

[@bonifale]

Rory; excellent job on this review; I have never before commented on a review before, but this one is excellent. Not sure if I will purchase an E-2008 but the information given is concise and helpful. Very impressed by your style an knowledge of your subject. Thank you.

[@Mekuso8]

The idea that there aren't that many electric SUVs, I find that quite strange. There's only a single (1) electric wagon/estate available in Europe and that's only in the UK for now. So as family cars go, all cars except one are SUVs

[@sharkflower123]

Why no Auto-Hold when it has electronic handbrake?

[@jonny5777]

You are lucky to have Rory auto trader! Good car then but I doubt it’s 200 mile range so I can’t consider getting one. Also what about servicing it? Can a normal mechanic service one

[@Gazb6669]

Rory, another excellent review. These are helping me with the next EV choice.

[@1530swimmer]

I hope you were blasting out those tunes on Classic FM, Rory!

[@sanoj92]

The wheel has been that way a long time for Peugeot cars and therefore seems very much intentional, not as an ad hoc fix for low instruments...

[@ayrtonjoshuapoliah736]

Its a beautiful car, doesn't have the power that one might desire but for an electric car has some nice touches.

[@bcol127]

Ayrton Joshua poliah I don’t think anyone in the market for one of these has any interest in power output

[@CalmDownShh]

@@bcol127 I am, and its a deal breaker for me. The fact that it struggles to pull after 40 concerns me with merging, over taking, and other situations where having adequate pulling power could impact safety in certain situations. Most non performance cars/cuvs in this price range pull consistently to at least 60 to 80 mph.

[@sexytim3691]

@@CalmDownShh as an owner of the E golf 2018 which is heavier and 2hp less, i can say that overtaking at 60 mph can be done just fine without any stress. They er quite agile, and surprisingly enough power to get you through traffic. No they are not "powerful" but plenty enough, so if thats the only deal breaker for you, then buy this car ;)

That whole 'cockpit' is a prime example of form over function........You can only see how fast you're going in a straight line! And it hasn't even got a decent exhaust note to make up for it.......

[@mattkeeber941]

If he’d adjusted the seat and steering wheel properly, then you can see the whole dash display over the wheel with plenty of leg room. We’ve had ours for a while. I’m nearly 6ft, my wife is 5’2 and neither of us have problems seeing the whole dash, regardless of steering wheel angle.

[@Dmaelstrom]

This is an older video. Would you say it still makes sense to buy this car at the moment, or are there many better options for the price? Thanks!

[@LoftechUK]

The dash is messed up being so low. The buttons looks terrible. Thanks for the cover.

[@SB-kz1ti]

How do you reach the control to reinitiate tyre pressure? It just doesn't seem to exist. The control panels are so difficult to use.

[@koolyman]

on the other hand, if you want the same thing but in a much more familiar and conservative format go for the vauxhall mokka e, right?

[@TnTteam09]

Any EV that dont hit the 250 Mark in range really makes me resist purchasing that vehicle. Good Thing my niro gets 268 on a full charge

[@timaustin2000]

I'd be happy with most cars over 180miles of range, having been driving EVs for a couple of years now. That said, I love that I got 256 miles out of my Zoe 50 the other day. Never have to worry about charging that thing.

[@kingslothtv7464]

Well. The only thing that would be better is stronger engine and a bit more range. But otherwise, not bad!

[@lahonymanor2927]

He ha at 3:30 he says about Peugeot messing up on the display being too low I agree with him.

[@TheSeafordian]

So you're short?

[@eocll]

looks good, but compared to the e-Niro or Kona it doesn't really stand up, and when you compare warranties.....

[@Brian-om2hh]

Hopefully Peugeot's build quality has improved since the 405 I owned. That car was truly shocking. I will not entertain a French car again....no way. I've owned 4 Skodas since the Peugeot, and in comparison, you'd have thought Stevie Wonder built the Peugeot..

You're wrong with the steering wheel mate!! You need to adjust the seat height in line with the steering wheel, it's not like your "normal" steering wheel. I'm a driving instructor and none of my pupils have any difficulty seeing all the instruments once the seat and steering are positioned. It is true that the steering wheel might be a bit lower than normal, but it works fine and again my pupils love the lower wheel positioning. (I have the smaller 208 but the principal is still the same.

BUT Terrible media sound (i would not even call this 'sound'.. some babble), real range is way smaller than declared (yep, eco driving). And this french look... I do not like it at all.

[@ashtaroth1975]

[@DTS7709]

I have taken delivery of this car this week and have jotted down some things that annoy me: - EV Charger won’t pull out if you don’t do it immediately after unlocking. If you fail you then have to close all doors and the boot, lock the car and unlock it again. A nightmare if you have kids or passengers. - Bottom of doors INSIDE the car get dirty - water makes its way in somehow - Kwph graph on the infotainment totally pointless as it’s Y axis scale goes to 120kwh per mile. Stupid as you’ll only ever get between 2-5 so the graph is miniature and therefore pointless. - MyPeugeot App took ages to connect - like a week, and it’s an incredibly clunky process. - Apple CarPlay cancels any radio station you’re listening to and just sits there in silence until you go all the way through settings and find radio again - No setting for defaul blower speed so it always comes on MAX which is both loud and unpleasant. Trying to change it is a real faff with all the touchscreen UI. - Water runs in boot if you open it whilst the car is wet - Can’t set pre condition temperature - so even after I got the app working, you can’t select a temperature you’d like to set, the car decides for you. Usually around 22 degrees. So much for setting it to be like a fridge when you’re 10 mins away from your car and it’s 38 degrees outside.
