The New Peugeot e-Traveller Combines Allure, Emotion and Excellence for Transport Professionals

The electric vehicle market is growing rapidly as more and more drivers and businesses are looking for zero-emission mobility solutions that are efficient, comfortable, safe, and elegant. One of the latest models to join this trend is the new Peugeot e-Traveller, a multipurpose vehicle that meets the needs of transport professionals who want to offer their customers a premium travel experience.

What is the Peugeot E-Traveller?

The Peugeot e-Traveller is a fully electric version of the Peugeot Traveller, a spacious and versatile vehicle that can accommodate up to nine passengers and their luggage. The E-Traveller is part of Peugeot’s electrification strategy, which aims to offer an electric variant of every model in its range by 2025.

The e-Traveller is available in two battery options: a 50 kWh battery that provides a range of up to 143 miles (230 km) according to the WLTP and a 75 kWh battery that extends the range to up to 217 miles (350 km). The batteries are located under the floor, so they do not compromise the interior space or the vehicle's loading capacity.

The e-Traveller can be charged in different ways, depending on the power source and the time available. It can be plugged into a standard domestic socket, a wallbox, or a public charging station. It can also support fast charging up to 100 kW, which can replenish 80% of the battery in 30 minutes for the 50 kWh version and in 45 minutes for the 75 kWh version.

What are the main features of the Peugeot E-Traveller?

The Peugeot e-Traveller is designed to offer transport professionals a high level of comfort, safety, and style while also being environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Some of the main features of the e-Traveller are:

Allure: The Peugeot E-Traveller has a new design that is both stylish and rewarding.

How does the Peugeot e-Traveller compare to other electric vehicles?

The Peugeot E-Traveller is a unique offering in the electric vehicle market, as it is one of the few models that can accommodate up to nine passengers and offer a long range and fast charging capability. However, there are some other electric vehicles that can be considered as alternatives or competitors to the E-Traveller, depending on the needs and preferences of the customers. Here is a comparison table that shows some of the main characteristics of the E-Traveller and some of its rivals:

Model	Base Price	Battery Size	Range	Charging Time	Passenger Capacity	Cargo Space
Peugeot E-Traveller	$54,000	50 kWh or 75 kWh	143 miles or 217 miles	30 minutes or 45 minutes (80%)	Up to 9	640 L to 4,900 L
Tesla Model X	$89,990	100 kWh	360 miles	15 minutes (175 miles)	Up to 7	2,487 L
Mercedes-Benz EQV	$72,000	90 kWh	213 miles	45 minutes (80%)	Up to 8	1,030 L to 4,630 L
Nissan e-NV200	$38,000	40 kWh	124 miles	40 minutes (80%)	Up to 7	1,500 L to 4,200 L

As the table shows, the Peugeot E-Traveller has a lower base price than the Tesla Model X and the Mercedes-Benz EQV, but a higher base price than the Nissan e-NV200. However, the E-Traveller offers more range and faster charging than the e-NV200, and more passenger capacity and cargo space than the Model X and the EQV. Therefore, the E-Traveller can be seen as a balanced and attractive option for transport professionals who want to offer their customers a premium and eco-friendly travel experience.
