At the Paris Motor Show 2024, PEUGEOT will showcase the "Long Range" version of the PEUGEOT E-3008, which offers up to 700 km of range (WLTP mixed cycle), a confirmed benchmark in its segment and on the electric market.
The big battery Peugeot will finally make their debut at the Paris show, they won''t look any different but these long range variants of its new e-3008 and new e-5008 will offer ranges of 435 miles and 415 miles, respectively. That''s down to a new 96.9kWh battery pack, which is 23.9kWh bigger than the existing 73kWh one.
PARIS – An electric energy is flowing through the Citroën, Peugeot and Alfa
"THE LIONS ARE COMING" is PEUGEOT's tagline for the 2024 Paris Motor Show.
"Today, PEUGEOT is an electric brand; we are ready
Our All-Electric Strategy reflects Peugeot's fundamental desire to contribute to preserving our planet for future generations. We are not doing this just because regulations require it. It is a deep commitment, both ethical and societal, to which I attach great importance.
The Paris Motor Show is a fantastic opportunity for us to demonstrate this commitment."
Linda Jackson, CEO PEUGEOT
The biennial Paris motor show is back on the 14th October, and as you''d expect it''s homegrown car makers that are set to steal the show. Renault Group will reveal a host of new electric vehicles, whilst Citroen and Peugeot will also have new models on display. But it won''t be an all French affair, because we''re expecting to see new cars from BYD, Leapmotor and MINI too. If you fancy hopping on the Eurostar to check out the show, here''s the low down on all the new EVs that will be on display.
Renault''s plan to launch a new wave of second-generation electric models is set to continue with the arrival of a new Renault 4. Like the Renault 5, it will be electric only and will borrow styling cues from its groundbreaking predecessor, which was first produced in the early 1960s. It will share much of its tech with the Renault 5 but will confusingly be larger sitting higher and wider, in a bid to capture the ever-popular compact crossover market. We expect prices to start at around £30,000 putting it in line with cars like the EV3, Fiat 600 and Volvo EX30.
The Renault Twingo E-Tech is a car getting us giddy with excitement here at Electrifying HQ because it''s simply adorable. The French brand is gearing up to relaunch another hit from its back catalogue, the much loved Twingo, as a fully electric model bringing a blend of retro charm to the affordable end of the EV market. It looks great (we''ve seen it), has been built for city life, promises to be extremely efficient and most important of all, it will be affordable (hooray!) with prices expected to start at under £17,000 - or around £90 a month. It''s a ''oui'' from us Renault!
The Renault 17 Electric Restomod x Ora Ito is a modern twist on the classic 1970s Renault 17, reimagined with the help of cool French furniture designer Ora Ito. In true restomod style Renault has combined the classic charm of the original car with contemporary materials and cutting-edge electric technology. Under the bonnet, the fuel injected engine is replaced by a rear-wheel-drive electric motor and inside, it''s all about modern luxury, complete with satin, boucle wool and cushioned seats. They''ve even managed to make the colour brown look cool, by renaming it Galactic Brown. We want one.
It won''t actually be called Twizy, or indeed have a Renault badge, but we will be seeing what will become the new Twizy in Paris. Renault has confirmed to Electrifying earlier this year that it will sell a replacement model in the UK starting from late 2024 under a new brand Mobilize and badged Duo. The all-electric inline two seater which has a range of 87 miles and a top speed of 50mph and will also be available as a single-seater cargo carrying version called the Bento. The plan is to sell it through the Renault network in the UK under the brand of Mobilize.
Renault will also be pulling the wraps of its showcar: the Embleme, which is designed to showcase sustainability. The Embleme is a concept car that uses an all-electric powertrain - with a twist. It''s got a 40 kWh battery for daily driving, but for longer trips it relies on a hydrogen fuel cell giving it a combined range of over 600 miles. It was built with sustainability in mind and Renault claims it is designed to significantly reduce carbon emissions by as much as 90% over the car''s entire life cycle, from production to its recycling. Renault''s current Megane E-Tech generates about 24 tonnes of CO2 over its life cycle. In comparison, the Embleme is expected to generate just five tonnes thanks to the use of recycled materials, renewable energy and recycled parts.
The Alpine A390 Beta will also be making an appearance for the first time and its rumoured to be in the form of a Porsche Macan rival. We also like the fact that it promises to blend Alpine''s racing heritage with cutting-edge EV technology, whilst staying true to the brand''s lightweight, performance-oriented DNA. This is the second car in Alpines transformation from a manufacturer of small performance sports cars, into one of all-electric performance cars and will be the follow up to the hot hatch A290 in what Renault''s sporting sub-brand calls its ''dream garage - expect plenty the A390 to feature plenty of F1 influence in its design.
The Alpine Alpenglow H6 might sound like a cross between a breakfast cereal and one of Kim Kardashian''s favourite beauty products, but in reality it''s Alpine''s statement about the future of sustainable high-performance vehicles. This concept car blends futuristic tech with Alpine''s signature racing spirit, it''s sleek and low-slung, with curves inspired by nature and a design that screams speed. It''s also Alpine''s way of showing that the future of performance cars could be hydrogen - a form of fuel guaranteed to provoke angry discussions on social media. The Alpine concept uses hydrogen fuel cells to generate power, emitting only water vapour. Think silent, fast and clean. Cue angry comments.
We fell for the Citroen Ami the moment we clapped eyes on it and have been fans ever since. It''s not a car for everyone but it does the very specific job it was made for - a small, affordable city runaround - extremely well. The Ami is getting a makeover just in time for the Paris show where it will debut a new look and some rumoured upgrades.
The BYD Seal has been making waves since it went on sale at the end of 2023 and the latest car to make a splash from Chinese car giant BYD is the Sea Lion, the next car in its Ocean Series lineup. Like the Seal before it, this all-electric mid-sized crossover is firmly aimed at taking on Tesla, but this time is gunning for the Tesla Model Y. However, as we recently revealed Tesla has raised the bar with a new entry-level Model Y variant, offering up to 373 mile range.
MINI will unveil the first all-electric John Cooper Works models at the showroom ahead of an introduction early next year. Both the three-door hatch and new Aceman SUV will receive the John Cooper Works (JCW) treatment with MINI expected to badge them ''Works E''. Although bosses have yet to reveal specifics relating to performance, they are tipped to get significant power increases over the current production models. In terms of styling, both models are expected to be similar to the Works E PROtotype which BMW unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed back in July.
Between the new e-3008 and e-5008 is yet another all-electric Peugeot - the e-408. It will make its public debut at Paris with the French brand having already announced a number of key details. The e-408 is based on the same set of underpinnings as the e-308 but has a longer wheelbase that can accommodate a larger 58kWh battery. As a result, the e-408 is set to offer a longer driving range of 280 miles on a full charge. The larger car will also be faster thanks to Peugeot''s decision to fit a more powerful 215bhp motor. Expect a 0-62 time of 7.6 seconds when deliveries start early next year.
Set to be one of the more unusual offerings at Paris, the THK LSR-05 Concept car is the result of a strange collaboration between automotive parts supplier THK and Nissan GT-R designer Shiro Nakamura. Although the concept was first shown in Japan last year, Paris represents its European debut. Designed to showcase THK''s latest technologies, it takes the form of a four-door coupe and features a host of innovative tech including in-wheel motors and active suspension. The concept also comes with a wireless charging pad system that allows the car to be recharged when parked in the vicinity of a charging pad.
While it borrows the name of a classic Renault van from the 1960s, there''s nothing particularly retro about the Estafette concept. The Estafette''s footprint (4.87 x 1.92 metres) is similar to that of the Kangoo (4.91 x 1.86 metres). It is, however, considerably taller (2.59 metres compared with 1.85). The driver, as a result, can move back and forth between the cockpit and cargo area.
Designed for urban ''last mile'' delivery providers, it features pocket sliding side doors that open with one motion, so the driver doesn''t have to constantly pull them outwards and backwards then back again. Renault claims that we can expect a production version within two years.
Without further ado, then, let''s take a look at each of the most important new cars you should look out for - all in alphabetical order.
Even a brand like Alpine isn''t immune to SUVs, and the A390 Beta will be its first entrant into the fiercely contested category. Complete with a rakish, coupé-like silhouette, the final road-going A390 is set to closely resemble the concept that will be revealed at Paris, and it will launch as a rival to the Porsche Macan Electric.
It might not be electric, but this new test bed for hydrogen combustion engines admits zero emissions whatsoever. First unveiled in 2022, the Alpenglow is expected to use a bespoke V6 engine instead of the previously-mooted four-cylinder unit. This means it will likely have a power output beyond the 335bhp of the four-cylinder engine.
Citroen is giving its smallest electric offering - and one of the smallest electric cars in the world - a mid-life update. Unfortunately, Citroen would not reveal specific details as to what they have changed for this latest generation, but you can expect to see some technical upgrades combined with a subtly tweaked exterior design. More range, perhaps? More power? All will be revealed in Paris.
Leapmotor recently made an introduction to the UK market with the C10 SUV and T03 city car (pictured above), the latter of which is claimed to be one of the most affordable electric cars in its segment. But the Chinese brand is going to extend its line-up with the B10, an electric SUV that will rival the likes of the Kia EV3 and Volkswagen ID 3.
Mini''s storied tuning division John Cooper Works (JCW) is expected to launch its first ever electric cars, with hotter versions of the Cooper hatchback and Aceman crossover. Details suggest both cars will be fitted with a 255bhp electric motor, which will be combined with more aggressive styling, bigger alloys and blacked-out grilles.
Renault is preparing to reveal the spiritual successor to the Twizy: the Mobilize Bento cargo van and Mobilize Duo two-seater. The tiny electric cars will be available in two versions: one with a top speed of 28mph, the other maxing out at 50mph. Both are said to have an electric range of 87 miles.
A new, larger 96.9kWh battery pack mens that Long Range variants of the new e-3008 and new e-5008 will be added to the French brand''s line-up. Both will offer ranges of 435 miles and 415 miles, respectively, but are expected to remain identical in terms of exterior and interior design. No information on pricing has become available as of yet.
Closely related to the smaller e-308, the new e-408 draws power from an electric motor combined with a larger 58.2kWh (usable) NMC battery pack – unique within the Stellantis group. The rakish 408''s slippery design helps the EV to achieve a range of 281 miles, with 4.6mpkWh efficiency. The battery can accommodate charging speeds of up to 120kW.
