The Peugeot e-Partner retains the stylish and modern design language of its petrol and diesel counterparts, with a sleek front end featuring a closed-off grille for improved aerodynamics. The e-Partner is available in a variety of eye-catching colours, including vibrant blue, stylish grey, and classic white. The electric badges on the front and rear subtly distinguish the e-Partner from its combustion-engine siblings.
The Peugeot e-Partner excels in practicality, offering ample cargo space to accommodate a diverse range of business and personal needs. With the rear seats in place, the Standard e-Partner boasts a generous load volume of 3.3 cubic metres. Fold down the rear seats, and the load volume expands significantly to 3.8 cubic metres, providing ample room for larger items. The Long version, with its extended wheelbase, offers an even more expansive load capacity, reaching 3.9 cubic metres with the rear seats upright and 4.4 cubic metres with them folded down.
The e-Partner's versatility extends to its loading versatility. The rear doors open to 180 degrees, facilitating easy access to the cargo area, while the load floor is flat and unhindered by wheel arches, allowing for efficient use of the available space. The e-Partner also comes with a variety of load-securing points and lashing eyes to ensure cargo is securely fastened and protected during transit.
Stepping inside the Peugeot e-Partner, you're greeted by a spacious and comfortable cabin that's designed to provide ample room for both driver and passengers. The dashboard is neatly laid out, and the controls are user-friendly, making it easy to operate the van's various functions. The seats are supportive and comfortable, even on long journeys, and there's ample legroom and headroom for both front and rear passengers.
Two trim levels are available: Professional Premium and Asphalt Premium.
The Peugeot e-Partner Professional Premium trim offers a comprehensive range of standard features, making it an ideal choice for both business and personal use. Key highlights include a spacious and comfortable interior with supportive seats, ample legroom, and a well-laid-out dashboard. The trim is equipped with an 8" touchscreen infotainment system featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility for seamless smartphone integration. Other notable features include Bluetooth® connectivity, cruise control with a variable speed limiter, rear parking sensors, and a rear parking camera for convenient parking manoeuvres. The trim also ensures hassle-free driving in all weather conditions with automatic windscreen wipers and electric folding mirrors. Safety is enhanced with front fog lights, ESC (Electronic Stability Control) with Hill Start Assist, ABS braking, and more. The exterior boasts a stylish appearance with body colour rear bumper, side rubbing strips, and exterior door handles.
Building upon the comprehensive features of the Professional Premium trim, the Peugeot e-Partner Asphalt Premium trim takes the driving experience to the next level with additional comfort and convenience features. It includes air conditioning for a more temperature-controlled interior and additional acoustic insulation, providing benchmark cabin refinement for a quieter and more peaceful ride. Electrically adjustable door mirrors add enhanced adjustability and convenience. The Asphalt Premium trim also features PEUGEOT Connect SOS & Assistance for immediate emergency support, SpeedCam with a 3-year subscription for real-time traffic information and speed camera alerts, and FREE2MOVE Connect Fleet Telematics with a 6-month subscription for comprehensive fleet management and data analysis.
The Peugeot e-Partner is powered by a 134bhp electric motor and a 50kWh battery. This combination delivers a maximum torque of 260Nm, which provides ample power for both urban and motorway driving. The e-Partner can accelerate from 0 to 62mph in just 11.2 seconds, and it has a top speed of 81mph.
The e-Partner's electric powertrain is also incredibly efficient, with a range of up to 205 miles (WLTP) on a single charge. This means that it's suitable for businesses that need to make frequent deliveries around town, as well as individuals who use their van for everyday commuting.
The e-Partner is available with a choice of three driving modes: Eco, Normal, and Power. Eco mode maximizes the range, while Normal mode provides a balanced combination of power and efficiency. Power mode maximizes the performance, which is useful for overtaking or when carrying heavy loads.
The e-Partner's regenerative braking system helps to slow the van down when the driver takes their foot off the accelerator. This energy is then used to recharge the battery, which further increases the van's range.
Overall, the Peugeot e-Partner offers a compelling blend of power, performance, and efficiency, making it a practical and enjoyable choice for businesses and individuals seeking a versatile and eco-friendly van.
