2022 Peugeot e-Partner electric van revealed

Peugeot has confirmed the technical specifications of its upcoming e-Partner, which is due to arrive at UK dealers in November. Unsurprisingly, they’re pretty much identical to those of the recently-announced Vauxhall / Opel Combo-e.

An under-floor 50 kWh lithium-ion battery pack provides energy for an electric motor that produces 108 PS (107 bhp / 80 kW) plus 210 Nm (154 lb-ft) of torque in ‘Normal’ mode. Alternatively, an ‘Eco’ setting restricts those figures to 81 PS (80 bhp / 60 kW) and 190 Nm (140 lb-ft) respectively, while ‘Power’ increases output to 136 PS (134 bhp / 100 kW) with 260 Nm (191 lb-ft).

Switching to ‘Power’ allows a reasonably quick 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time of 11.2 seconds, but top speed is always limited to 80 mph (130 km/h).

Most users are likely to be more concerned about range rather than performance, though. However, they might be disappointed, because according to the WLTP measure an e-Partner can cover just 171 miles (275 kilometres) on a single charge. At least there’s a choice of ‘Moderate’ or ‘Augmented’ regenerative braking levels to help maximise driving distance.

If the standard 7.4 kW single-phase on-board charger seems insufficient, then customers will be able to order an optional 11.0 kW three-phase item instead. Significantly, 100 kW DC rapid recharging is supported, so an 80 percent top-up is possible in only half an hour via a public facility.

Peugeot intends to offer the e-Partner as a panel van in 4.40 m (14’ 5”) Standard and 4.75 m (15’ 7”) Long guises, with a payload of up to 800 kg (1,763 lb). A five-seat crew van variant is also expected.

Prices have yet to be released.
