\"\"<\/a>The future of the fastback has arrived \u2014 and it\u2019s electric. The striking PEUGEOT E-408 has just landed in Ireland, bringing bold design, cutting-edge tech, and zero-emissions driving to one of the most stylish silhouettes on the road. Here\u2019s everything you need to know about this sleek new arrival.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

1. A Fastback with Feline Attitude<\/h3>\n

The E-408 isn\u2019t just another EV \u2014 it\u2019s a statement. With its elevated stance, coup\u00e9-like roofline and signature \u201cfang\u201d LED lights up front, it looks every bit as dynamic as it promises to drive. At the rear, triple-claw LEDs seal the deal. Choose from five colours, including Obsession Blue and Elixir Red.<\/p>\n

2. 100% Electric Power, Zero Compromise<\/h3>\n

Under the skin sits a 210hp electric motor and a 58kWh battery delivering up to 453 km range (WLTP). With 345Nm of instant torque.<\/p>\n

3. Fast Charging Made Simple<\/h3>\n

An 11kW AC charger comes as standard, but plug into a 120kW DC fast charger and you\u2019ll get:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    20\u201380% charge in just over 30 minutes<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    100 km of range in just 10 minutes<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    4. Space Where It Matters<\/h3>\n

    Despite its sleek lines, the E-408 is built for real life. Passengers get class-leading 183mm rear legroom, while the boot swallows 471 litres \u2014 expanding to a cavernous 1,545 litres with the seats folded.<\/p>\n

    5. The High-Tech i-Cockpit\u00ae<\/h3>\n

    Step inside and you\u2019re greeted by the latest PEUGEOT i-Cockpit\u00ae with its compact steering wheel, 10-inch digital instrument cluster, and 10-inch central touchscreen. Add PEUGEOT i-Connect\u00ae Advanced with wireless Apple CarPlay\/Android Auto, voice control, and over-the-air updates, and it feels more smartphone than car.<\/p>\n

    6. Comfort and Luxury Touches<\/h3>\n

    Think ergonomic seats, wireless phone charging, four USB-C ports, and ambient lighting. The MyPEUGEOT\u00ae app adds remote pre-conditioning, charging schedules and vehicle monitoring at your fingertips.<\/p>\n

    7. Safety You Can Count On<\/h3>\n

    PEUGEOT packs the E-408 with top-class driver assistance tech, including:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Active Lane Keeping Assist<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Automatic Emergency Braking (day\/night, detects cyclists & pedestrians)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Blind Spot Monitoring & Rear Cross Traffic Alert<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      8. Choice and Value for Irish Drivers<\/h3>\n

      The E-408 isn\u2019t arriving alone \u2014 there\u2019s also a Hybrid 145 mild-hybrid option. Irish prices start from:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        Hybrid 145 Allure: \u20ac38,995<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Hybrid 145 GT: \u20ac42,995<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        E-408 Allure: \u20ac38,995*<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        E-408 GT: \u20ac43,995*
