Peugeot 208 Hybrid FE concept announced for Geneva-April 2024

Peugeot has joined forces with Total with the objective of improving vehicle energy performance by developing a gas concept car called the Peugeot208 HYbrid FE that provides an enhanced driving experience with a significant reduction in CO2 emissions. The Peugeot 208 HYbrid FE will be showcased at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

Peugeot 208 HYbrid FE – Features

The Peugeot 208 HYbrid FE is fitted with a 1.0-litre VTi three-cylinder petrol engine, a Electronic Gearbox Control (EGC) and an electric motor that produces 51kW. Acceleration from zero to 100km/h is achieved in 8 seconds with CO2 emissions of only 49g/km.

Both Peugeot and Total have built the 208 HYbrid FE and designed it to capitalise on the research conducted and produce better aerodynamics, weight savings and drivetrains. The Peugeot 208 HYbrid FE is expected to shed up to 200kg in weight and will also feature special tyres and wheels that will contribute to reducing rolling resistance.

Peugeot and Total have worked together since 1995 to reduce fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Total and several of its entities are actively involved alongside Peugeot in numerous R&D projects to develop environmentally friendly vehicles.

More details for the Peugeot 208 HYbrid FE will be made available at the Geneva Motor Show.
