Practicality

The e-208's boot is exactly the same size as the standard 208's with a 311-litre capacity, and you can drop the rear seats 60-40. GT Premium models have several useful features, including heated front seats and keyless entry and start.

Living with it

With near-silent performance and the fastest acceleration in the 208 range, the e-208 delivers an incredible driving experience. A full charge costs around £6 and with up to 217-miles of range, you won’t have to charge up frequently.
