The electric motor is powered by a new 54 kWh battery, with a new chemical composition resulting in a final formula of 80% Nickel, 10% Manganese, and 10% Cobalt, operating at 400 Volts and allowing the new E-308 SW to offer, depending on the equipment level, a range of over 400 km, according to the WLTP protocol.
The onboard three-phase charger is available as standard and has a power of 11 kW. The charging socket accepts all charging modes. Using a 100 kW public charging station, Peugeot announces that it is possible to go from 20% to 80% state of charge in less than 25 minutes.
Based on the multi-energy EMP2 platform, the new Peugeot E-308 SW fully embodies the DNA of the French brand, with an elongated hood that highlights its dynamic silhouette. At the front, the LED Matrix headlights are framed by a saber-shaped light signature.

In profile, the new E-308 SW stands out with new 18-inch alloy wheels, specially developed and optimized from an aerodynamic point of view for the 100% electric version.
The rear projection of the E-308 SW is 21 centimeters longer than that of the E-308, resulting in a perfectly balanced rear section with a bumper that reflects the new design and a practical and larger trunk than the sedan variant.
