Peugeot has begun taking UK orders for the refreshed 308 and 308 SW lineup, including upgraded all-electric variants that deliver improved range, faster charging, and updated exterior styling. The new E-308 and E-308 SW now offer up to 279 and 275 miles of range, respectively.

Unveiled in August, the revised all-electric models feature a 156 hp motor with 270 Nm of torque and a 58.4 kWh battery (55.4 kWh usable). This upgrade provides around 25 miles more range compared to their predecessors.

The models retain a 400-volt architecture, allowing DC fast charging from 20% to 80% in approximately 32 minutes at a 100 kW charging station. AC charging via the 11 kW onboard charger takes just over three and a half hours for the same interval.

Both electric variants qualify for the UK’s Electric Car Grant, reducing the E-308’s starting price to £30,995 and the E-308 SW to £32,195. Peugeot’s Electric Promise covers both vehicles with an 8-year or 100,000-mile vehicle and battery warranty and access to over 700,000 public charge points via the Free2Move Charge Pass, offered in partnership with Octopus Electroverse.

The facelift introduces Peugeot’s latest brand identity, seen on the E-3008 and E-5008. The new E-308 adopts a redesigned grille with the signature three-claw LED lighting, and from the GT trim level upwards, features an illuminated front logo.

Beyond the electric variants, the 308 lineup includes a 195 hp plug-in hybrid with a 53-mile electric range (WLTP), a 145 hp 48V hybrid, and a 1.5-litre BlueHDi diesel option arriving in 2026.
