Peugeot has just unveiled the highly-anticipated 2024 E-3008, offering a glimpse into the future of electric SUVs. This third-generation model is poised to set new standards in the electric vehicle (EV) market, and we’ll delve into the key highlights and features that make it a standout choice in the compact SUV category.
Sleek and Futuristic Exterior
The Peugeot E-3008 embraces the brand’s evolved design language, featuring slimmer headlights and triple LED accents surrounding a grille that seamlessly blends into the front bumper. Notable exterior elements include futuristic alloy wheels, glossy black cladding along the lower body, and a sharply raked rear glass.
With its black roof and pillars, the E-3008 boasts an aerodynamic roofline that defines its identity as a “fastback SUV.” This term draws inspiration from its larger sibling, the 408 crossover. Still, for most consumers, it will undoubtedly register as a sleek and stylish coupe SUV. For those seeking even more space, Peugeot has confirmed that the closely-related E-5008 will follow soon after, featuring a longer body and a more upright tail.
Revolutionary Interior with i-Cockpit Technology

Peugeot is pioneering its latest i-Cockpit technology with the E-3008, making it the first production model to showcase this cutting-edge innovation. A striking 21-inch curved panoramic display takes center stage, seamlessly integrating the digital instrument cluster, the head-up display, and the touchscreen into one cohesive unit. This is complemented by a smaller touchscreen on the center console, offering configurable “i-Toggles” shortcuts. High-quality materials and extensive ambient lighting create a futuristic and inviting cabin atmosphere.
Electric Power and Versatility
Underpinning the E-3008 is the all-new STLA Medium architecture, a platform designed for electric vehicles but also capable of accommodating combustion engines. Peugeot has confirmed that the E-3008 will be available with three fully electric powertrains, offering an impressive estimated range of up to 700 kilometers (435 miles).
Furthermore, the potential for introducing a non-electric version remains a possibility, particularly for those interested in a mild-hybrid powertrain option, like the recently introduced 1.2-liter 48V system.
What Lies Ahead
The wait for all the intricate details will soon be over, as Peugeot plans to unveil the E-3008 in just four days, on September 12, 2023. The unveiling will be broadcast live from the prestigious Sochaux factory in France, where this exceptional SUV will come to life. While pricing is expected to position the E-3008 above its hybrid predecessors, Peugeot is staying true to its commitment to offer electric alternatives across its entire lineup by 2025, paving the way for a complete transition to an all-electric brand in Europe by 2030.
The 2024 Peugeot E-3008 is more than just an electric SUV; it’s a glimpse into the future of automotive innovation, promising style, substance, and sustainability for the modern driver.
