The Peugeot 3008 SUV is one of the most charismatic models from the Sochaux brand, notably, its 100% electric versions represent 22% of sales, a figure above the segment average, and the GT version, the top of the range, attracted 54% of buyers.
In France, the Peugeot 3008 is the market leader in the C-SUV segment and in Portugal, it is the vice-leader, and in this regard, the French brand announced that the Sochaux factory has just produced the unit no. 200,000 of the new generation of this model, following its launch in September 2023.
Since its launch, the new Peugeot 3008 has won over customers with its SUV-fastback design, the Panoramic i-Cockpit, and its benchmark electric performance.
Benefiting from the unique modularity in the multi-energy platform segment STLA Medium, each customer can find the level of electrification and performance that suits them best in the 3008 range: Hybrid of 145 hp, Plug-In Hybrid of 195 hp, and three 100% electric options in the E-3008 of 210 hp, 230 hp Long Range, which offers a range of 700 km (WLTP mixed cycle), and 325 hp Dual Motor with all-wheel drive.
The 200,000 unit left the factory in Sochaux, which is currently a production unit and reference point for the French brand, as it includes units such as Douvrin (ACC, supplier of the Long Range battery), Trémery, Mulhouse, and Sept-Fons. To meet the strong demand for the 3008, the brand’s historic production unit employs 6,500 workers in 2.5 shifts. The factory’s unique assembly line stands out for its flexibility, as it can produce various body shapes, all types of powertrains, electric, hybrid, and internal combustion, and quickly adapt production to demand.
