Hybrid Driving Range

Hybrid Driving Range Information

The driving range of PEUGEOT plug-in hybrid vehicles allows you to travel both short and long distances.

 

To ensure that you have a relaxed travelling experience, you can find all the information you need here: our advice for optimising your range, our simulation tools and best practices to adopt.

Driving range of plug-in hybrid vehicles

Plug-in hybrid vehicles have two complementary engines (petrol and electric).


In 100% electric mode, our vehicles have a driving range of: 

WLTP Test range of 60km (WLTP(i) Figure based on WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure) static laboratory combined average city and highway cycle test, which measure, energy consumption, range and emissions in passenger vehicles, figures stated for the purposes of comparison amongst vehicles tested to the same technical procedures only. Actual real world range results will vary depending on a combination of factors including but not limited to load, driving style, type of journey, vehicle configuration, battery age and condition, use of vehicle features (such as heating and air conditioning), as well as operating, environmental and climate conditions. )

PEUGEOT ASSISTANCE TO OPTIMISE DRIVING RANGE

THE POWER INDICATOR

Your energy consumption is shown in real time on your dashboard for optimal management of your vehicle’s driving range.

 

 
HYBRID MODE
HYBRID mode allows you to use the electric motor and petrol engine depending on the driving style and type of road. 
REGENERATIVE BRAKING
When you release the acceleratorBrake mode is activated by pressing button B on the gearbox control which then maximises battery charging. , the electric motor acts as a generator, slowing the vehicle and recharging the battery.  

SIMULATE THE DRIVING RANGE OF YOUR PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE

To guarantee you the best experience with your plug-in hybrid vehicle, PEUGEOT offers you these simulators to indicate the range values​closest to your actual use.

 

This information is useful and important to ensure you have a pleasant experience in your vehicle.

SOME FACTORS IMPACTING YOUR VEHICLE’S DRIVING RANGE

As with a petrol or diesel vehicle, these are some of the factors can affect the driving range of a plug-in hybrid vehicle:
Load carried
Driving with loads on the roof or with a window open increases wind resistance and therefore fuel consumption. A heavy load will also affect driving range. 
Driving style
Smooth and eco-friendly driving will optimise your driving range. 
Air-conditioning
Heating and air-conditioning can be responsible for some of your battery consumption. 
Hills
Your fuel consumption is increased when travelling uphill and your range is affected.
