2025 Peugeot E-208 electric car price leaked
Yesterday at 03:35 AM
Nearly two years after confirmation of a local launch, the Peugeot E-208 EV appears to be closing in on Australian showrooms, but it won’t come cheap.
Peugeot is ramping up its electric-car plans – months after hitting the brakes – with the delayed arrival of the 2025 Peugeot E-208 city hatch, prices of which have surfaced online.
And it is available in a single GT specification grade priced from $49,990 plus on-road costs – only $5000 cheaper than the most affordable Tesla, for a smaller vehicle in the Peugeot with nearly 200km less claimed driving range (331km vs 513km).
Peugeot Australia is yet to confirm the leaked pricing, which has been published on industry database Redbook, a website with pricing data supplied by car manufacturers.
For that money, buyers score a 51kWh battery, outputting 115kW/260Nm to the front axle, while its dimensions place it between the Mini Cooper EV and BYD Dolphin.
Still, the city-sized hatchback will accommodate a 309-litre load with all seats in place, swelling to 779L with the rear seats folded.

Standard equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels, interior ambient lighting, keyless entry, push-button start, part-Alcantara seat trim, and a digital instrument cluster.
As for safety, Redbook lists lane departure warning, blind-spot monitor, front and rear parking sensors, and front and rear cameras.
The 208 light hatch was last offered in 2018 when production of the first-generation model wound down.
The petrol-powered second-generation model was in line for an Australian introduction five years ago, but the French brand’s plans shifted and will now offer the nameplate exclusively as an electric car.
Drive has contacted Peugeot Australia to verify the leaked information, and we are still awaiting a response.
