Peugeot e-208: New Zealand review of a fun, French electric car.

[@mirnivoznik8536]

That's not a car review, that's stand up comedy episode. The "documentary Alo alo" cracked me up! So good. And I just binged 5 episodes ...

[@EcotricityNZ]

I feel like I owe you a potato at the very least for suffering through five of my videos! :D Thanks mate! -Gav

@@EcotricityNZ 😄😄 Just keep up the good work! Cheers from Europe.

In the settings you can configure a personalised instrument display. Amongst the configurable options is the Trip Computer which does include a battery % state of charge.

Thanks for the review . Im 6f2 and sat inside one yesterday and it feels a very nice place to be and i had enough space and felt comfortable in the car , ill book in for a test drice soon as it's one of my favourite ev cars so far .

[@RadoTrenciansky]

It was fun watching you having fun Gavin. And it was nice to hear you speak not just French but Slovak too :)) Great little car this Peugeot. Thank you for entertaining review again

[@MalcolmFaed]

Listen very carefully, I will say this only once.

[@masterofthepinkside]

loved that documentary

[@jamesfromwellington]

Nice review, good to see a light weight, good city EV

[@tominco]

Quality content right here.

Proximity unlocking? Looks more like you were trying to do something mildly obscene Gavin. 😅🤭

Ecotricity NZ really should be looking into installing solar canopies into outdoor Kiwi carparking & not just at the charging points either, but across the entire thing. So much potential for clean green renewable ⚡ generation right across Aotearoa without having to plaster the countryside with large industrial infrastructure. Carparking & outdoor storage landowners can get a little bit more income from their investment & the world gets just that little bit closer to getting rid of fossil fuel generated energy supply. Making good (efficient) use of the (preexisting) built environment is surely logical & comes without the extra material requirements, costs & energy losses of long transmission lines by generating ⚡ at or near point of consumption.

Love the Pug!

I love the look of the car but I Test drove one of these Peugeot e208 and I definitely didn't like the manual seats which all Peugeot cars seem to have and I found the motor sounded a bit like a jet plane taking off, it wasn't quiet enough for me for an electric car. Apart from that it was a nice sporty looking car.

[@Milkshakenz]

Excellent and fair review. Heads up, in NZ the app doesn't currently have the remote charge facility. In fact since July none of our e208s come with the telemetry box, so no SIM, so no connectivity to the European- based server. Hence no fully functioning app here. :(

"Everything I learned about French came from a Documentary called 'Allo 'Allo" - Funniest thing i've heard all week!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@wrifraff]

Seems like a fun car!

[@Pstaines439]

Such a great review and so many good jokes

[@fruitpunch5260]

Why did you compare the weight of this small car to that of a Subaru Legacy and Tesla model 3? lol

[@mondotv4216]

I think the MG4 will eat the E208's croissant. Great vid.

[@mana.k]

This seems way too expensive for what you get !!

[@JanneWolterbeek]

Great video, very cute car, but too small for my size, sadly.

[@simonalexandercritchley439]

First thumbs up, second comment.

[@stefanbrony7905]

i'm waiting on mince since januari

[@matthewygomasterduel975]

"Angry Kitten" 😂

[@VipreNZ]

It has an "Engine On/Off" button? It doesn't have an engine!

[@RacingAnt]

It's a nice car, but doesn't tick enough boxes. It's more expensive, slower, smaller and shorter ranged than the BYD Atto 3. It's nowhere near as funky, fast or fun as a Mini, or the (sadly) discontinued BMW i3. All a bit nothing, really. Sell it at $45k, and now we're talking.

[@gacnz]

Umm nice looking car 👌 But Allo Allo was not a “French documentary” but an “English comedy about the French resistance” 👍😂🤓

[@TheMntnG]

a good family size, but we wouldn‘t need it

[@SahilChauhan]

The guy at the Peugeot dealership was trying to sell me on this being better than a Tesla because they have parts available when you crash. Yeah that's because you just did a shitty conversion of the petrol version and made it electric. He also tried to say most cars don't need RWD as it's too complex 🤣

[@SNORKYMEDIA]

that stupid glovebox annoys me
