Respectively leader in 2021 of the European market in all segments (PC + LCV) and of the B-SUV segment (PC + LCV), the #peugeot208 and 2008 are now equipped with a new automatic gearbox control that is sleek and full of alluring, more ergonomic and easier to use. Gone is the protruding lever: the new control consists of an elegant lever perfectly integrated into the central console
This evolution of the transmission control does not only concern the internal combustion engines with EAT8 automatic gearboxes, but also the e-208 and e-2008 with 100% electric engines.
With an efficient and modern design, the new gearbox control frees up space in the central console. The integration is perfectly suited to the environment of the #peugeot i-Cockpit® 3D of the 208 and 2008, a subtle blend of technology and ergonomics.
Combining satin chrome, “piano” black, and a carbon look for the wrist rest, the materials used exude quality. The finish is among the best standards on the market.
For all engines, electric as well as internal combustion engines with automatic gearboxes, this new control allows the different modes to be selected:
Two remote buttons complete the functions:
Whichever function is selected (R, N, D, P, M or B), an indicator light comes on to signal its activation. The driver can also count on a reminder of the mode engaged in the instrument cluster.
All the 208 and 2008 versions equipped with this new control feature the electric parking brake, which combines space saving with comfort and peace of mind in everyday driving.
Regenerative braking control on e-208 and e-2008 electric models
On the e-208 and e-2008, the two 100% electric models, the M button (Manual) is replaced by a push B (Brake), which increases energy recovery during deceleration:
An evolution in functionality, the Brake mode (B) remains active even after a push on the lever (without stopping the engine): there is no longer any need to engage it again during a restart: it remains active and keeps the driver settings in memory.
