Peugeot received over 185,530 orders for the 3008 and 5008 models (138,763 for the E-3008 and 46,767 for the PEUGEOT E-5008 YtD until April 2025). The brand now expands its C-SUV range with the new Electric 325 Dual Motor powertrain.

This addition joins the highly efficient Electric 210 and the Electric 230 Long Range, which boasts some of the best range figures in the SUV market.

They cater to two types of customers: those who prioritise high performance and driving pleasure in an SUV, and those who need greater traction for various weather conditions (for example, in Nordic countries, Switzerland, etc.).

The Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008 325 Dual Motor combine the standard 213 HP front-wheel drive electric motor with an additional 112 HP electric motor for the rear wheels. Together, they offer all-wheel drive with a total of 325 HP and a maximum torque of 509 Nm.

With the E-3008 and E-5008 325 Dual Motor, driving pleasure and 100% electric performance reach new heights. The 325 HP delivered by the two motors allows for especially dynamic acceleration and responsiveness: the Peugeot E-3008 325 Dual Motor accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6 seconds (6.5 seconds for the E-5008) and from 80 to 120 km/h in 3.8 seconds (4 seconds for the E-5008).

Four driving modes

There are four driving modes available:

• Normal mode: To optimise daily efficiency, only the front motor is prioritised; the maximum power is limited to 313 HP and the maximum torque to 450 Nm. Depending on the driver's demands, the rear motor and wheels automatically engage. During strong acceleration, both motors deliver their full potential.

• 4WD mode: Both motors operate continuously, with power distributed 50/50 between the front and rear axles for optimal grip, especially on slippery surfaces. The ESP and traction control systems adopt specific management strategies to enhance grip. Maximum power and torque are available.

• Sport mode: Both motors operate continuously, with power distributed 60/40 between the front and rear axles for dynamic and efficient performance. Maximum power and torque are also available in this mode. The steering and throttle also adopt a sporty configuration, providing greater responsiveness.

• Eco mode: The front motor is prioritised, the maximum power is limited to 213 HP and maximum torque to 343 Nm. During strong acceleration, the rear motor and wheels automatically activate and both motors offer their full potential. The air conditioning and throttle pedal also adopt an Eco configuration.

To make the most of this potential, Peugeot engineers have paid special attention to the development of the chassis. The stiffness of the stabiliser bars, springs, and dampers is specific, as is the calibration of the power steering, providing greater dynamism and responsiveness.

Thanks to its usable 73 kWh NMC lithium-ion battery, they offer a range of up to 490 km and 467 km respectively (WLTP combined cycle in Normal mode). Like all 100% electric Peugeot vehicles, the charging time from 20% to 80% on super-fast chargers is approximately 30 minutes.
