Despite all the efforts made towards the total electrification of the automobile, there are brands that, during this transition period, continue to invest in solutions that allow this path to be taken in stages.
This is the case for almost all those that are part of the Stellantis Group, which recently developed powertrains with 48 V mild hybrid technology, capable of combining low consumption and emissions with convincing performance, without relying at all on the electric aspect.
Proof of this is the new Peugeot 208 Hybrid e-DCS6 GT with 136 hp, a very valid utility vehicle for those who still cannot, or do not want to, embrace what is touted as the mobility of the future: efficient, economical, and at the same time, very competent and enjoyable to drive – and costing significantly less than its sibling powered solely by batteries.
To learn everything, there is nothing like watching the full test conducted by journalist António de Sousa Pereira for AutoGear, featuring one of the latest stars from the lion brand.
