The iconic GTI nameplate has been electrified in the form of the new Peugeot e208 GTI. The GTI features exterior flourishes including alloy wheels which take inspiration from the 205 GTI. The interior has some red accents thoroughout the cabin and my test car featured a red carpet on the floor. This hot hatch boasts 280hp and 345 Nm of torque, resulting in a brisk acceleration time of 0-62mph in 5.5 seconds. Depending on your tyre choice, Peugeot claim up to 233 miles of range. Prices start from £34,995 (£33,495 after the electric car grant). Check out the full video on YouTube.
I joined Dylan, from DylansCarReviews, for the first drive of the new Peugeot e208 GTi around the banks of Loch Lomond. This is an electric hot hatchback which boasts a 5.5 second 0-62mph time whilst showcasing some red accents on the exterior and interior. The suspension and brakes have been sharpened up, to provide a more engaging drive. Check out the video on YouTube, and decide if the new e208 GTI is the hot hatch which you have been looking for?
