Energy consumption is displayed on the dashboard and is re-calculated as you drive. It is different to the WLTP-rated consumption (which measures power from the mains).
This number is estimated by comparing the usable battery capacity against the WLTP range.
The maximum speed the EV can charge at home or a public AC charger.
An EV has a built-in charger that converts household AC electricity into DC current that goes into the battery.
This limits the maximum speed you can charge at home - no matter what extra equipment you install. Some public chargers (such as at motor camps and shopping malls) are also AC only.
Fast Charge ⚡
The maximum speed the EV can charge at a DC fast charger.
Speed is limited by the capacity of the charger.
In NZ, fast chargers are typically 25 kW, 50 kW, 100 kW, 175 kW, and 300 kW.
Cold temperatures and the vehicle's charging curve also dictate peak speed (i.e. a warm battery at a lower state-of-charge will charge quicker).
The e-2008 is a small SUV virtually identical to its petrol counterpart, the Peugeot 2008. With modest sales since its release in late 2021, it lacks the speed and range of the Kia Niro and Hyundai Kona.
NOTE: Earlier model years (before 2023) had a lower range of 320 km. Peugeot no longer offered the 2008 in 2024.

Peugeot e-2008 review – subtle yet effervescent
"First glance the e-2008 looks exactly like its petrol version, and that is not a bad thing at all. Same size, same shape, same great eye-catching curves, however, look a little closer and the raft of subtle changes appear."
