Peugeot 2008 Hybrid to arrive in two variants

THE PEUGEOT 2008 HYBRID IS A claimed to be a true gamechanger in the compact SUV segment, blending cutting-edge hybrid technology with new features as standard that were previously options on the outgoing internal-combustion model.

With its seamless (there’s that word, again!) integration of a fuel-efficient petrol engine and an electric motor, the 2008 Hybrid offers a more efficient way to navigate neighbourhood streets and highways without sacrificing power or versatility.

The MY25 Peugeot 2008 GT Hybrid now includes the ‘Style Pack’ as standard, featuring 18-inch Evissa Onyx Black alloy wheels and a sunroof (previously a $2500 option). It also comes with the hybrid drivetrain for improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions comparted to the tradition ICE.

David Owen, General Manager Peugeot Australia, said, “Seamlessly (and again!) blending a responsive petrol engine with an electric motor, the new Peugeot 2008 Hybrid offers smooth acceleration, remarkable performance and is the perfect companion for those ready to embrace hybrid driving without compromise.”

“The real bonus with the new Peugeot 2008 GT Hybrid is that it now comes standard with the ‘Style Pack’ option which was previously an optional extra. This is a huge win for our customers, as is the added efficiency of a hybrid drivetrain.”

With the order books now open ahead of anticipated customer deliveries from Q1, 2025 interested customers are encouraged to explore more online.

Hybrid Performance Meets Efficiency

Under the hood, the Peugeot 2008 Hybrid SUV is powered by a sophisticated 1.2-litre turbo engine paired with a 48V hybrid system. The combination of the turbocharged petrol engine and the hybrid electric motor delivers a smooth and responsive driving experience, with a seamless (and there it is again!) transition between electric and petrol power. The hybrid technology optimises fuel efficiency with an ADR 81/02 lab-tested combined fuel consumption of 4.4L/100km and CO2 emissions of 99g/km. This represents an 18.5 percent reduction in combined fuel consumption and a 19.5 percent reduction in CO2 emissions when compared to previous Peugeot ICE vehicles.

With an output of 100kW of power @ 5500rpm and 230Nm of torque at 1750rpm plus an all-new six-speed DCS (dual clutch system), the Peugeot 2008 Hybrid offers impressive acceleration and on-the-road ability. The hybrid system can recover energy during braking, further enhancing efficiency and reducing fuel consumption (see our comments regarding misleading fuel consumption figures for hybrids here)
