About Peugeot E-208 GTi Electric Car
The Peugeot e-208 GTi marks the return of one of the most loved hot-hatch badges – this time fully electric. Revealed on 12 June 2026 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the e-208 GTi revives the GTi name on Peugeot’s supermini, swapping the old turbo-petrol engine for a punchy electric motor while keeping the focus firmly on driving fun. For France and the wider European market, it is one of the most exciting affordable performance EVs around.
The numbers back up the badge. A single front motor produces 207 kW (281 PS) and 345 Nm, enough for a 0-100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds and a 180 km/h top speed. Crucially, it is not just a power bump: the e-208 GTi gets proper hot-hatch hardware including a Torsen limited-slip differential, a wider track and uprated brakes and chassis, so it should genuinely entertain on a back road. The 54 kWh battery (50.8 kWh usable) gives a WLTP range of around 375 km, with 100 kW-plus DC fast charging taking it from 10 to 80 percent in about 28 minutes.
For buyers asking about the prix and date de sortie: in France the e-208 GTi starts at 42,900 euros (around 34,995 pounds in the UK), with orders open from its Le Mans reveal and first deliveries expected before the end of 2026. It keeps the practical 5-seat, 309-litre-boot body of the regular e-208 but adds genuine performance and GTi attitude. If you want an affordable, fun electric hot hatch in Europe, this is the one to watch.
Trending news for Peugeot E-208 GTi Electric Car
Peugeot revealed the e-208 GTi on 12 June 2026 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, officially bringing back the legendary GTi badge as a fully electric hot hatch. Orders opened the same day, with first deliveries expected before the end of 2026. The headline is a 207 kW (281 PS) front motor and a 0-100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds.
Pricing has since been confirmed: the e-208 GTi starts at 42,900 euros in France and about 34,995 pounds in the UK. Importantly, this is more than a power upgrade - the GTi gets proper performance hardware, including a Torsen mechanical limited-slip differential, a wider track and uprated brakes and chassis, signalling Peugeot's intent to make it a genuine driver's EV rather than just a fast trim level.
Peugeot E-208 GTi Electric Car range and performance
The Peugeot e-208 GTi is built for fun. Its single front motor makes 207 kW (281 PS) and 345 Nm, giving a 0-100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds. Top speed is capped at 180 km/h. A Torsen limited-slip differential, wider track and uprated chassis are designed to make it genuinely engaging to drive, not just quick in a straight line.
The 54 kWh battery (50.8 kWh usable) provides a WLTP range of around 375 km, dropping slightly on the stickier performance tyres. That is modest next to range-focused EVs, but typical for a small performance car - and the fast 107 kW charging helps offset it on longer trips.
Peugeot E-208 GTi Electric Car safety overview
As a 2026 model based on Peugeot's e-208, the e-208 GTi is expected to come with a comprehensive driver-assistance suite, including automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, driver attention alert and rear parking sensors with a camera, plus uprated performance brakes. It has not yet been crash-tested in GTi form, so check the latest Euro NCAP information for the e-208 range and the specific model year before buying.
