Behind schedule compared to American and Asian manufacturers, Peugeot has decided to update its 100% electric flagship models.
Peugeot announces that it will now equip its 100% electric models with two essential technologies: battery preconditioning and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L).
Peugeot takes a decisive step in its electric transition by enhancing the user experience of its 100% electric models. The lion brand, long criticized for its lag behind Tesla, Hyundai, or Kia, finally addresses this technological deficit with two practical and efficient innovations: battery preconditioning and the Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function.
Better use of electric energy
Battery preconditioning, available on the Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008, allows for quick and optimal charging even in cold weather. This is a major advantage for the range and reliability of electric vehicles, which has been a weak point for Peugeot compared to Asian and American competitors. Specifically, the battery can gain 10°C in just 20 minutes, ensuring efficient charging as soon as it’s connected to the charger. The driver can activate this function via the Trip Planner, the central display of the Panoramic i-Cockpit, or the MyPeugeot app, which automatically triggers the preconditioning when the outside temperature is too low.
The second innovation, V2L, transforms the vehicle into a mobile energy source. With a dedicated adapter, the battery can power external devices up to 3 kW, from laptops to electric bikes, as well as tools or recreational equipment. Already available on the Peugeot E-208 and E-2008, V2L will be rolled out across the entire electric range, including future E-308, E-3008, E-5008, and E-408 models. This technology meets a real practical need, whether for nomadic remote work, outdoor activities, or emergency situations.
