The Peugeot E-208 GTi marks the return of a historic name, now in fully electric form. The little French hatch leans on brisk acceleration, a firm chassis and sharper handling than the standard E-208, with the goal of delivering a proper battery-powered hot hatch.

In first impressions, it comes across as lively and fun, with a solid sense of connection behind the wheel while remaining easy to live with every day. It may not be the wildest car in the class, but it stands out for personality and for a setup that puts driving enjoyment and agility on mixed roads first.
