The Peugeot Hoggar is evidence of the company's international ambitions and confirmation that Peugeot is speeding up its new product launch strategy. Developed in Brazil, for the Brazilian market, the pick-up is designed to meet the requirements of the local clientele, consolidating Peugeot's position as national manufacturer.

Fuelling its policy of commercial expansion on the Brazilian market, Peugeot presents the Hoggar pick-up, the Marque's first compact pick-up developed in Brazil.

The name Hoggar - after a mountain chain in the Sahara desert, in Africa - taken from one of the Marque's concept cars, evokes a combination of power, strength and action.

The compact pick-up, which completes the Brazilian 207 family range, already containing a wealth of hatchback versions, the SW, SW Escapade and the Passion notchback saloon, demonstrates Brazil's importance as a strategic market for the worldwide growth of Peugeot's sales, together with, in particular, Russia, China and the ASEAN countries, other mainstays of the Marque's international expansion plan.

With the extension of its product range in Brazil, Peugeot's full-year sales target for the Peugeot Hoggar is 10% of the Brazilian compact pick-up market, a market that continues to grow.............. Read more >

A 100% Brazilian vehicle
While the development of the national 207, launched in August 2008, confirmed Peugeot's commitment to create products suited to Brazilian consumers, taking account of their preferences and their particular features, with the Peugeot Hoggar pick-up, the Marque is going even further.

It took almost R$ 100 million, the participation of 320 technicians and engineers, and three years' work to bring this project to fruition. Due to its utility nature, the vehicle had to comply with even stricter specifications than those imposed on private cars, in order to be validated. In all, 573 major trials were carried out, corresponding to thousands of different tests. Overall, the Peugeot Hoggar will have covered over a million kilometres before going on sale.

Peugeot Hoggar is the first model to use a "combined" platform, based on the chassis of the Brazilian 207 and that of the Partner. In this way, Peugeot puts its traditional knowledge of utility vehicles to good use and, by mixing the concepts, offers a model suited to the requirements of the Brazilian clientele, in a new market segment.

The developers were keen to produce a very rigid structure and a more sturdy suspension system, designed to deliver optimum performance, whatever the vehicle's load, while offering a level of comfort and driving pleasure worthy of a saloon.

The project is also notable for having produced a well-balanced compact pick-up, with good interior space and the largest load space in its segment, with a volume of 1,151 litres, able to take a live load of 742 kg.

This is set off by a touch of excitement and dynamism unusual in the pick-up world, underlined by resolutely modern styling and by the quality of the materials used in the passenger compartment, not forgetting the bold, young design, characteristic of the Peugeot marque.

This is the arrival of the "pick-up by Peugeot", a model entirely designed, developed and manufactured in Brazil, intended for sale on the Brazilian market, which strengthens Peugeot's image as national manufacturer.

The Peugeot Hoggar will be launched in Brazil on 15th May 2010, in three equipment levels and two Flex Fuel engine options: 1.4 and 1.6.

Styling that conveys the personality, vigour and dynamism of the new pick-up
Peugeot Hoggar's design, vigorous and modern, was developed with an eye to the inimitable aesthetics characteristic of the 207 family. The façade has a large air intake intersected by an impact bar, and expressive headlights that veer along the wings, accentuating the model's feline look.

There is a protective strip running along the simple, smooth lines of the vehicle's sides, along to the side step, which not only facilitates access to the load space, but also extracts air from the cab and improves acoustic comfort in the passenger compartment, thanks to its location.

A line of trim runs all the way round the load space, defining the symmetrical lines of the rear. This is enhanced by two elements: a strip at the level of the tailgate handle, overhanging the rear lights, and an opening at the lower level. Between the two lines, Peugeot displays the Lion symbol.

The elaborately-shaped rear lights convey the model's strong personality. The three elliptical lights, representing the vehicle's various functions - brake lights, warning lights, indicators, reversing lights - are set into a triangular red glass that continues round the side of the vehicle.

The rear bumper, adding to the pick-up's sturdy appearance, is surrounded by a part that, while helping to protect the lights, has two projections that can be used as steps to gain access to the cab and which can each take a weight of 140 kilos.

Interior: good taste and comfort for the occupants
The interior of the Peugeot Hoggar pick-up, the fourth member of the 207 range in Brazil, has the same contemporary design as the other models in the family.

The undulating console has a variegated grain trim with a pleasant touch. Inspired by the world of motorbikes, the dashboard has three circular dials that evoke precision instruments. The functions are clearly displayed, making it easy for the driver to read them.

The cab has side windows that improve the occupants' peripheral vision and contribute to the model's overall aesthetic harmony. The rear window has a sliding panel, even in the range entry model. A glass-holder can be fitted in the central console and numerous items can be stored in the door pockets.

The interior layout enables the driver to find a good driving position easily, as the steering wheel and the folding and anti-dive seats are height-adjustable.

The interior area can easily hold compact luggage. With the seats folded right down, the capacity of the cab rises to a volume of 120 litres, up to the height of the load space, so the driver can store rucksacks and other items.

The Peugeot Hoggar's cab has plenty of room for a toolbox. Easily accessible (behind the driver's seat and under the mat), a single compartment holds a wheel spanner, a warning triangle, a towing ring and a jack.

The local vision of a hybrid platform produces the largest load space in the segment
To meet the challenge of creating an unusual vehicle in Brazil, Peugeot combined its international experience as leader of light utility vehicle sales in Europe with its 17 years' activity in Brazil.

Over the three years of project preparation, the local team of 320 technicians and engineers studied various vehicle platforms that could be used as a basis for developing a compact pick-up.

They came to the conclusion that, to meet the expectations of this segment of the Brazilian market, they would have to design a specific platform, a combination of the front platform of the national 207 and the rear platform of the Partner, extended by 300 mm. The Peugeot Hoggar pick-up is therefore the largest body shape in the 207 family.

The two platforms were joined using specially-designed structural elements to ensure maximum rigidity for the whole vehicle, allowing the suspension systems to function easily and improving the comfort procured by the vehicle's dynamic driving behaviour.

There is another advantage to the model's design: the "combined" platform meant that the marque's engineers, without compromising the cab's spacious interior, could produce a load space with the largest capacity of its segment, i.e. 1,151 litres. With Pirelli Chrono 175 65 R14T tyres, they have endowed the Peugeot Hoggar with the biggest live load of all its competitors, 742 kg in the X-Line version (660 kg for the XR and 650 for the Escapade).

The Peugeot Hoggar pick-up also has the longest platform of the 207 family, over 653 mm in the hatchback version, 453 mm in the SW and 290 mm in the Passion notchback saloon.

The load space has other advantages, such as the possibility of using almost all its available area. The wheel arches do not project far as the model has been given a new floor. Peugeot has endeavoured to make the vehicle's load space as functional as possible. The latter has ten anchoring points, including six fixed hooks (three on each side) on the sides and four in the centre (two close to the cab and two near the tailgate).

The tailgate is detachable, if necessary, to transport items that are longer than the trailer. The operation is very simple: the tailgate is unlocked with the vehicle key, tilted 45º then pulled outwards. It can hold up to 300 kg.

The tailgate has another practical advantage, ensuring the security of the spare wheel, positioned under the load space. To get at the wheel, it is necessary to unscrew a screw protected by a metal part that is blocked when the tailgate is closed. The spare wheel is therefore only accessible to the vehicle key holder.

The suspension enhances driving pleasure
In order to adapt the conditions of use to those of a utility vehicle, Peugeot has designed a reinforced suspension system that, even with a maximum load, gives the pick-up's dynamic driving the level of comfort so dear to the marque.

It has independent McPherson type front suspension with an anti-roll bar. The new firmer calibration of the helicoidal springs enhances rigidity. The shock absorbers (with integral hydraulic brakes) have also been readjusted with the aim of increasing their durability.

The rear suspension system, in constant demand when the vehicle is loaded, was borrowed from the Partner utility vehicle. Renowned on the market for its reliability and strength, the system has low maintenance costs. Compact, composed of shock absorbers that have been readjusted and are positioned almost on the horizontal, it means that the load space has a completely flat floor.

The trailing arms rear axle comprises independent wheels and anti-roll and transverse torsion bars. The hydraulic shock absorbers have been recalibrated, and the suspension arms, given a new geometry, are 10 mm longer so they are in line with the pick-up wheels.

Another specific modification concerns the local development of new suspension stops and suspension arm brackets, adapted to the new brake control system. Partner has one and the Peugeot Hoggar has two. This guarantees a high level of efficiency, enabling the system to operate safely whatever the vehicle's load.

All these modifications, together with the extreme rigidity of the platform, produce a model with precise driving behaviour and excellent running gear. The aim of this design is to ensure high quality stability, comfort and easy driving comparable to a saloon, in line with Peugeot's firm commitment to manufacture vehicles that are benchmarks in terms of driving enjoyment.

The pick-up has other new developments
To ensure the pick-up is suitable for all kinds of uses, the engineers developed a steering oil cooling coil for the hydraulic power steering, which helps to preserve the system's dynamic qualities, including when the vehicle is used in extreme conditions.

The side step is another addition to the model. Not content with simply facilitating access to the load space, it also has the job of extracting air from the cab. It performs this task continually due to its side location. The air in the passenger compartment is renewed when the vehicle is in motion, even when the fan is off. This solution, which also improves acoustic comfort in the cab, is unique in the segment and has been patented by PSA Peugeot Citroën.

Client profile
As a guide in developing the model, Peugeot carried out surveys which enabled it to identify the profile of the potential Peugeot Hoggar buyer as between the ages of 30 and 49, 89% male and 76% married.

The customers thus identified are mainly small traders or company managers who use the vehicle for their professional trips or as a work vehicle (75%). When buying a vehicle in this segment, this type of consumer attaches great importance to its versatility. 41% of them do trips with the vehicle's load space in use.

Equipment levels and engine options
While it is the range entry model, the X-Line pick-up, with a working vocation, is equipped with the Flex 8V 1.4 (1,360 cc) engine, developing maximum power of 82 h.p. when operating on alcohol and 80 h.p. on petrol, at 5,250 rpm. It is economic, with maximum torque of 12.85 mkg at 3,250 rpm, whatever fuel is used.

This engine is combined with a manual gearbox (five speeds plus reverse). Taking the vehicle's utility nature into account, Peugeot has reduced the transmission ratios for first and second gear, rendering the vehicle more agile with any load, and guaranteeing a good performance for hill starts, for example.

The X-Line version has a front bumper in body colour, a gear lever knob with imitation aluminium details, and 14 inch steel wheels. As regards safety, the model has the following equipment: ignition key with "crypto" transponder, smart vehicle maintenance indicator, fog lights built in to the rear lights, windscreen wipers with timer linked to the vehicle's speed, and sump protection, inter alia.

The following options are proposed for the occupants' comfort: height adjustment for the driver's seat and steering wheel, sun visor with courtesy mirror for driver and front passenger, audible alarm if the key is left in the ignition, the lights are not extinguished or the fuel tank is low. In addition, there is the "follow me home" system (rear lights and dipped headlights can stay on for 30 seconds after the vehicle is locked), a socket ready to take audio equipment and four-speed forced-air ventilation.

XR and Escapade models: more sporty versions
The next level up from the X-Line, the intermediate XR version, also equipped with a Flex 1.4 engine, has an extra touch of sportiness, starting with the front headlights set in a black mask that accentuates the model's feline look. The model boasts another equally modern aesthetic element. Two longitudinal bars of innovative design run around the cab. Designed to help when attaching loads, they also facilitate access to the cab, assisted by the side step. They support two dual position transverse bars that can hold certain items and can take a maximum weight of 70 kg.

The jovial look of the Peugeot Hoggar pick-up is enhanced by mixed-use 175/70 R14 H tyres (Pirelli Scorpion ATR), on the 14 inch wheels with sporty trims. The XR version also comes with a digital clock on the dashboard, front fog lights with a surround in body colour and hydraulic power steering.

Escapade version: for the young thirsty for adventure
The high-end version, the Escapade, is equipped with the Flex 1.6 (1,587 cc) engine which develops maximum power of 113 h.p. on alcohol and 110 h.p. on petrol at 5,600 rpm, with 15.5 mkg maximum torque at 4,000 rpm in alcohol mode.

Aesthetically, this is the boldest model in the range. The bumper has a metallic grey front grille that enhances the model's sturdy appearance. The original look of this version is emphasised by the front and rear wheel arch trims that accompany the side furrows, and the 15 inch light alloy wheels (Pirelli Scorpion ATR 185/65 R15 H). The trailer tailgate, on which E-S-C-A-P-A-D-E appears in large letters, leaves no doubt either as to the vehicle model nor the use that its owners plan to make of it.

Inside the cab, the occupants have a high level of comfort: air-conditioning, sequential control electric windows for the driver, front sports seats covered with fabric in a new pattern which lend an extra dimension to the occupants' comfort, and electric external rear view mirrors adjustable from inside.

The fittings also include pouches on the back of the front passenger seat, an external temperature indicator, digital clock and calendar on the dashboard. In this version, the vehicle is also equipped with two loudspeakers in the front doors, an automatic door locking system triggered by the speed and remote control electric locking.

Refined, sporty touches on the door handles, pedals and imitation aluminium air-conditioning vents give the consumer the sensation of being in a higher category model. This model also has a chrome gear lever knob and the dashboard has a white background.

The Peugeot Hoggar pick-up has two option packs available for customers. The first, on the X-Line version, includes heating and air-conditioning. The second, for the XR version, comprises: automatic door locking, electric windows, heating, air-conditioning and multifunction remote control keys. Metallic paint is an option for all configurations and the double front airbag is only available on the Escapade version.

Peugeot offers an exclusive range of accessories for the Hoggar pick-up
With the arrival of its first compact pick-up, the marque is offering a new car concept in this segment, one that combines sturdiness and ease of driving worthy of a saloon.

To reinforce the model's inherent sporty nature, Peugeot proposes a vast range of accessories to highlight its strong personality and improve its equipment level, expanding the offer for the customer who wants to adapt the vehicle to his requirements.

A number of accessories can be found in the marque's sales outlets: trailer protection, canvas load space cover, protective grille for the rear window, brake light on the roof, roof bars, roll bar, front bumper protection, side running board, imitation aluminium door sill, cargo net, opening roof (retractable and electric) and net for transporting objects that extend beyond the edges of the load space.

2011 PEUGEOT iOn car insurance info,features,technical data.


Mobil Peugeot:


PEUGEOT iOn (2011)
Pictures >

A NEW URBAN DRIVING EXPERIENCE: ZERO EMISSIONS, SILENT, PRACTICAL, RESPONSIVE
The Peugeot iOn, designed as the ideal car for the city and the suburbs, is targeted mainly at public services and businesses, but also at private individuals. This city run around combines remarkable packaging with good interior space, unrivalled handling, rigorous safety, and a high level of comfort enhanced by a generous standard specification. Added to this are the advantages inherent in electric technology, namely unprecedented silence, the absence of CO2 emissions and superb driveability.

To drive the Peugeot iOn means to experience a new tranquillity engendered by the car's silent operation, the absence of vibrations from the power train and the simplicity of no gear changes. What's more, the immediate availability of maximum torque allows efficient, linear acceleration that makes driving in traffic so much easier.

RANGE
Thanks to the energy management of its Lithiumion battery and optimised energy recovery during deceleration and braking, the range as per the European standard cycle is 150 km. In practical terms this is sufficient to cover the majority of a motorists' daily trips, 90% of which are in fact less than 60 km. It takes 6 hours to fully recharge the battery using a traditional household socket. A quick charge using a special charging unit provides a 50% charge in only fifteen minutes, or 80% in thirty minutes. Bearing in mind that a conventional car is at a standstill for around 90% of the time when used in an urban or semi-urban context, the time needed to recharge the Peugeot iOn is entirely compatible with what motorists are used to.

UNBEATABLE RUNNING COSTS
With running costs between €1.50 and €2.00 per 100 km, the energy bill of the Peugeot iOn is unbeatable regardless of which recharging mode is used.Carried out overnight or during "off-peak hours" recharging costs can be reduced further and help optimise the use of available power produced by the electricity supply companies.

NO COMPROMISE ON SAFETY
Its standard equipment - six air bags, ESP, electronic brake force distribution (EBFD), emergency brake assist (EBA) - and the design of its structure, gives the Peugeot iOn the same level of safety equipment as a conventional modern car. At the design stage, strong emphasis was laid on the safety and durability of components of the electric power train. The battery components are contained in a rigid, hermetically-sealed casing ideally positioned under the passenger compartment floor for maximum protection in the event of an impact, in the area most resistant to deformation. This also improves the vehicle's weight distribution by lowering the centre of gravity. Recharging of the battery, either by a special quick charge unit or by means of a standard electrical socket using a special connecting cable, is controlled automatically according to the monitored parameters of the individual battery cells.

SERVICES TO MAKE LIFE EASIER
In addition to the latest-generation electric technology, the Peugeot iOn incorporates the most recent telematics technologies to offer a range of Peugeot Connect services.

All Peugeot iOn models, as standard and for an unlimited period, have access to Peugeot Connect services including Peugeot Connect SOS and Peugeot Connect Assistance. If safety items are activated or the SOS button is pressed, the car's occupants are put in touch with the emergency call centre. Similarly with Peugeot Connect Assistance, pressing the "Peugeot Lion" button automatically connects the user with the help line. As the vehicle's precise location is determined automatically, emergency or repair services can quickly be dispatched to the scene.

Other services include:
= Peugeot Connect Fleet, with periodic transmission of information such as battery charge status, remaining range, mileage and mileage before the next service that is particularly useful for fleet managers;
= Electric Driving, allowing the user to check, via Smartphone or PC, the battery charge status and range of the vehicle.

THE COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE OF A COMPREHENSIVE STANDARD SPECIFICATION
The comprehensive standard specification on all Peugeot iOn models includes: alloy wheels, power steering, fog lamps, automatic switching-on of headlamps, daytime lights, remote control central locking, trip computer, air conditioning, Bluetoothcompatible MP3 and CD audio system with USB connection, front and rear electric windows, heightadjustable driver's seat, reclining and folding rear seat backs... With a single model and two interior trim levels, the Peugeot iOn range is simple and transparent. The three main available options or accessories are:

= a "cold kit" which includes a heated driver's seat and electric door mirror de-icing;
= a conversion kit to create a 2-seat light commercial vehicle with a load capacity of 1.1 m3;
= a mobile and connected satellite navigation system, which includes other travel modes (walking, bike, etc.) installed in the fascia panel allowing:
= reception of traffic information,
= mapping updates with indication of recharging stations,
= information search by points of interest. With a single badge level and two interior ambiences, the Peugeot iOn range is simple and transparent.

AN "ALL INCLUSIVE" MOBILITY OFFER
Marketing of the Peugeot iOn is based mainly on an "allinclusive" mobility offer. As an example: in France this offer lasts for five years and costs €499 including VAT per month, which includes: the vehicle and its battery - 5 year warranty covering the battery and electric power train - servicing and maintenance for five years or 50,000 km - specific electric assistance - Peugeot Connect, Electric Driving services and access to the Mu by Peugeot mobility programme.

CLEAR CUSTOMER INTEREST
Local authorities and governments are in favour of integrating this new technology with state aid and by installing a programme for a re-charging infrastructure. These authorities are also potential customers with their own fleet of vehicles and car-share projects which are envisaged in several cities.

To date Peugeot has already signed fifteen letters of intent with mobility operators, energy companies, leasing and car-sharing companies in a number of European countries.

From the numerous contacts from private individuals received on the special Peugeot iOn website, these individuals are also interested in 100% electric technology when it is proposed by an established manufacturer such as Peugeot. Within the Mu by Peugeot network, the first mobility service offered by a manufacturer, Peugeot iOn will be one of the vehicles available for short term loan. Individuals will therefore be able to try out this new way of getting around town or choose a zero emissions car for a timely trip.

Peugeot is proposing several different technologies in response to the environmental challenges and the different requirements and expectations of today's customers:

= from the first quarter of 2011, the first e-HDi models equipped with the a new-generation STOP & START system will be launched on the 508, giving reductions in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions;
= in the spring the world's first diesel hybrid, the Peugeot 3008 HYbrid4, will offer its users a high level specification and a real breakthrough in terms of fuel consumption and CO2 emissions with a reduction of 35%, i.e. 3.8 litres/100 km, for 99 g/km of CO2;
= in addition to the Peugeot iOn, the Marque will be putting on sale a 100% electric light commercial vehicle, based initial on the current Partner Origin. iOn will, therefore, not be the Marque's only electric vehicle. The first 100% electric LCV will be a Partner Origin developed by Venturi but for the longer term, work is underway to create new concepts adapted to 100% electric technology.

THE MARKET AND ITS CUSTOMERS
The success of the European electric vehicle market will be very dependent on tax incentives at the time of purchase or during ownership, the introduction of infrastructures, possible ecological constraints in terms of urban traffic and the fluctuating price of fossil fuels. The market is expected to grow very gradually, representing around the year 2020 4% to 5% of the European car market.For this reason the Peugeot iOn will also appear gradually, rising to a total production of 50,000 iOns by the year 2015.

The Peugeot iOn is targeted mainly at local government, local authorities and public services and companies active in the transport and energy sectors, leasing companies, car sharing companies and the fleets of large corporations. In the first half of 2010, Peugeot has already signed 15 letters of intent with:

= three public transport companies, including two for an offer in different European countries;
= six leasing companies in three European countries;
= six energy companies in six European countries.

Peugeot is also a partner in the consortium VTLIB' (Veolia urban transport), still in the running as a candidate for the Autolib' project, a future electric car self-service system planned for Paris and nearby suburbs in 2011. To a lesser extent, private individuals are also target customers. Convinced of the Marque's reliability, they will be the forerunners of this new relationship with the motor car.

A SPECIFIC COLOUR FOR THE LOGO
For the first time in the Marque's history a vehicle will display a specific badge, the new pearlescent white/ chrome Lion will be a special feature of zero emission vehicles. This badge affixed to the bonnet of the Peugeot iOn, on the black lacquered moulding of the tailgate and in the centre of all four wheels is supplemented by the logo "Full Electric" on the rear wings.

With its single compartment body shape and minimal overhangs the Peugeot iOn is clearly a compact city run about. Its easily identifiable style will quickly be associated with its technological uniqueness and, for the driver or business it will create a modern image of good citizenship, pioneering 100% electric technology.

Curvaceous with a small domed bonnet (specific to the iOn) extended by a large inclined front windscreen, the general look of the Peugeot iOn is immediately inviting. Without taking itself too seriously, it adds to this look with full body-colour paintwork and alloy wheels. Seven body colours are available: two pearlescent, two metallic and three vibrant, fun shades. The interior, purposely traditional, is available in two levels of finish, the first understated and consensual, the other featuring materials that are soft to the touch, such as the leather steering wheel and gear lever knob (DNRP) or the soft painted fascia panel and door panels, partially tinted with a subtle hint of very chic metallic blue.

A NEW URBAN DRIVING EXPERIENCE
The magic of electric power resides in zero CO2 emissions and an external noise level limited to the sound of the tyres on the road, ideal qualities for driving in built-up areas. Thanks to a wheelbase of 2.55 m and its high architecture, its remarkable interior space allows four adults to be seated in comfort. Its compactness - 3.48 m long and 1.47 m wide -, its remarkable turning circle of 4.50 m and its electric power steering make it very agile. It can weave in and out of traffic and make child's play of the most difficult parking manoeuvres.

Despite its small size, it commands respect when in amongst the traffic. There can be no doubt that at the wheel of the Peugeot iOn, with its raised driving position and good visibility, both driver and passengers are safe and secure in a real car.

As soon as the wheels start to turn, the silence of the power train immerses the driver in the new experience of tranquil driving. Driving, not only silent but also extremely easy, makes journeys less tiring and more fun, with all occupants able to enjoy a normal conversation.

A new link between the driver and the vehicle is created by the presence in the instrument panel of a power meter, indicating instantaneous energy consumption or energy recovery (when the foot is taken off the accelerator and when braking). The driver quickly gets used to ensuring optimal energy recovery during deceleration and as a result adopts a fluid, stress-free driving style.

While lending itself to tranquil driving, the Peugeot iOn is not lacking in character and performance. As soon as the need is apparent, use of the accelerator frees up available torque instantly for rapid, linear acceleration. Taking 3.5 seconds to go from 30km/h to 60km/h (compared to 3.9 secs in 3rd in a 207 1.6 litre THP) is evidence of this. This level of performance instils confidence particularly when joining fast moving traffic.

NO COMPROMISE ON SAFETY
Thanks to the vehicle's tall architecture, the battery pack (all battery components) can be housed under the floor between the wheels, which by lowering the centre of gravity gives the vehicle good dynamic stability. This stability is enhanced further by its standard equipment - ESP, electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) and emergency brake assist (EBA).

When the driver lifts their foot from the accelerator pedal, the momentum of the wheels drives the electric motor (in reverse direction) in electricity-generating mode, providing "engine braking" comparable to that of a conventional vehicle. Braking efficiency is ensured both by energy recovery and the traditional braking circuit. An electric pump creates a vacuum in the brake servo to assist braking.

The same level of safety as a conventional modern car is provided through the design of its structure and its safety equipment: two front air bags, two chest air bags, two curtain air bags, two Isofix child safety seat mountings and an unfastened seat belt warning system for the front and rear seats. The battery pack, positioned in the most impact resistant area, is encased in a structure constructed from a fibreglass reinforced polymer and steel plates. Transverse reinforcement bars in the battery pack protect it in the event of a side impact and improve the rigidity and torsional strength of the chassis. Each of the battery cells (88 in total) are enclosed in a parallelepiped stainless-steel case.They are arranged in groups of four or eight in protected modules, positioned in the pack's structure. In the event of a collision, a short-circuit protection system isolates the cells and "high voltage" circuits.

Special features relating to recharging of the battery
Normal recharging by means of an earthed household electrical socket is carried out using a special cable with a protective housing which electronically controls continuity of the earth line and can therefore interrupt charging in the event of a fault. Recharging, rapid and normal, is monitored by voltage and temperature sensors on the battery cells and by the dialogue between the specific battery pack controller and that of the quick-charge unit via the vehicle's electronic control unit (the car's "brain"). During rapid recharging, if certain temperature thresholds are reached in one or more elements of the battery, the inside of the battery is cooled by the circulation of ambient "cold" air, or air cooled by the air conditioning, in the battery pack.

Recharging is possible only if the gear selector is in the parking position. Similarly, the vehicle's ignition is switched off, making it impossible for the car to be started inadvertently with the charging connector in place.

RANGE AND RECHARGING
The Peugeot iOn is equipped with a new-generation Lithium-ion battery with an energy storage capacity well in excess of the old Ni Cd batteries used in the 1990s (three times more energy per kg or twice as much by unit of volume).

This battery has no memory effect. It can be recharged, even partially, without the need for regular complete discharges.

The battery can be fully recharged in six hours using a single-phase 220 V household supply via a five metre cable fitted with a standard socket and a special plug for connection to the vehicle. For normal charging the driver connects the cable to the household socket or to a standard roadside charging point, while the other end is connected to the socket on the right-hand side of the vehicle (the socket on the left-hand side is reserved for quick recharging). A symbol on the instrument panel and a LED on the cable's protective housing signal immediate commencement of the battery charging process.It stops automatically when the battery is fully charged.

A quick recharge by means of a special recharging unit connected to a three phase 380 V electrical supply takes fifteen minutes to provide 50% battery capacity and 30 minutes for 80% capacity. The special cable for quick recharging, rigidly attached to the terminal, is connected to the socket on the lefthand side of the vehicle. The recharging process is monitored and controlled by the dialogue between the vehicle's electronic control unit and the charging unit controller. Recharging stops automatically when 80% of the full charge is attained (100% is possible with a second re-charge).

THE DRIVING POSITION
The aim of the designers was to create an entirely new vehicle in technological terms, but one that was in keeping with what motorists are currently used to. Therefore the driver occupies a traditional driving position with controls comparable to those found on a conventional vehicle: ignition key, hand brake, four-position gear selector and two pedals as on an automatic car, as well as heating and air conditioning controls, etc. Turning the ignition key to the first notch supplies the car's equipment, turning it to the second notch makes the power train operational. The "Ready" light on the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning to break the silence, announces that the vehicle is ready to be driven.

The main differences with a conventional internal combustion engined vehicle are on the instrument panel, which has:

= a battery charge indicator (with sixteen positions) letting you know the battery charge level;
= a power meter to encourage economical driving by providing an instantaneous readout of levels of energy consumption or energy recovery during deceleration and braking, by means of a needle which moves across coloured zones:
. - the green zone, driving with minimal energy consumption,
. - the white zone, "energy hungry" driving,
. - the blue "Charge" zone, level of energy recovery;
= the trip computer, as well as the usual information, indicates the available range calculated on the basis of driving conditions recorded over the last 25 kilometres. Parameters taken into account include the type of driving, traffic conditions, the type of journey and use of the heating or air conditioning;
. - gradual range reduction warnings and an emergency strategy:
. - when the battery charge level falls to two bars, the "gauge" symbol flashes, warning of the need to recharge the battery (17% of energy remaining),
. - when the last bar is reached, it too flashes in addition to the "gauge" symbol. Charging is now essential,
. - when no bars are displayed any more, the "gauge" symbol stays on and the trip computer indicates no range. The heating and air conditioning are switched off by the vehicle's onboard systems. The vehicle inertia allows the heater blower to diffuse any remaining hot or cold air. The power of the electric motor is gradually reduced,
. - when the requested acceleration can no longer be fully supported a "tortoise" symbol appears on the instrument panel and the vehicle's performance is reduced,
. - the vehicle comes to a complete stop when the minimum battery level is reached.

THE POWER TRAIN
The Peugeot iOn is a rear-wheel drive vehicle in which the electric motor and single-ratio reduction gearbox are installed in front of the rear suspension.

The motor is supplied with a 330 V three-phase alternating current (AC) from the inverter which is supplied with a 330 V direct current (DC) from the main battery pack. The inverter regulates the current, frequency and voltage according to the position of the accelerator pedal. The controlled response when the accelerator is pressed has been designed to ensure a good distribution of power when required.

The inverter, the motor and the reduction gearing provides a potential speed range from 0 to 130 kph. The single reduction gear provides an overall ratio of 6.066 in both forward and reverse gears. Reverse gear is obtained by reversing the direction of the motor's operation.

The Neodyme (Nd) synchronous permanent magnet electric motor is particularly compact. With a maximum power of 47 kW.h (64 bhp) it has a maximum torque of 180 Nm from 0 to 2000 rpm. It consists of:

= a rotating rotor with peripheral magnets positioned with the poles (north and south) alternately towards the exterior;
= on the outside, a fixed stator composed of coils supplied by three independent current phases, creates the magnetic field which turns the rotor.

THE BATTERY
The lithium-ion battery was developed by Lithium Energy Japan (LEJ - joint venture Mitsubishi/GS-Yuasa). They are produced (in Kusatsu in Japan) in the world's first factory dedicated to the mass production of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles.

The term lithium-ion covers several technologies. The choice of manganese oxide technology (cathodes with a manganese oxide LiMn2O4 base) is the best option to meet the operating requirements and required safety levels set for the vehicle. Each battery module has four or eight 3.7 V cells and a capacity of 50 Ah. With a total of 88 cells, connected in series, the battery pack can store 16 kWh of electrical energy with a nominal voltage of 330 V.

The recharging of each cell in the battery pack is controlled continuously by a control system which includes monitoring of each cell and a central battery controller.

HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING
The electrical air conditioning and heating systems of the passenger compartment are powered from the lithium-ion battery pack. The heating system operates via the circulation of coolant which is electrically heated. It provides warm air immediately after a cold start or when the vehicle is at a standstill. The power of the heating can be adjusted to obtain just the right level of comfort in order to minimize the consumption of electricity. An optional "cold pack" is available which includes a heated driver's seat ensuring good thermal comfort when only the driver is present, and optimising the energy usage for the heating of the passenger compartment. Air conditioning is provided by a refrigeration unit with an electric compressor controlled electronically so that only energy required for the current setting is consumed.

ELECTRICAL FLOWS
When the car is being driven, the inverter transforms 330 V direct current (DC) from the battery into 330 V alternating current (AC) to supply the electric motor. It also controls the electric motor depending on the position of the accelerator and during the energy recovery phase.

The motor is reversible. During deceleration it generates alternating current (AC) which is converted by the inverter to direct current (DC) in order to recharge the drive battery (generator mode).

The on-board charger transforms household 220 V alternating current (AC) into 330 V direct current (DC) to recharge the drive battery. It controls the 14 A input current and the 8 A current supplying the battery.

For quick charging, the 50 kW charging unit directly supplies voltage and direct current to recharge the drive battery. The unit operates on a three-phase 380 V supply (supplied directly from the country's electrical network). The car's battery is, therefore, supplied with a single-phase direct current of up to 125 A. Recharging is monitored and controlled by the dialogue between the vehicle's electronic control unit and charging unit.Recharging stops automatically when 80% of the full charge is attained. A second recharging phase can be started (after the first 80%), and will continue up to 100% but more slowly, in order to not exceed the maximum voltage of each battery cell.

A (DC) converter incorporated into the on-board charging unit generates a 14 V supply from the 330 V of the drive battery to recharge the 12 V battery supplying the car's equipment - ECUs, lighting, audio system, power steering, vacuum pump, water pump, etc. It plays the same role as the alternator on an internal combustion engined vehicle.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL
When the car is being driven, the electronic control unit continuously monitors correct operation of the vehicle and controls energy management. Work was carried out in particular to optimise performance and encourage energy recovery during braking. Regardless of road conditions and battery charge levels, the vehicle controller determines the motor's operating performance.

The battery has its own checks for phases of recharging, discharge linked to the vehicle's electronic control unit.

COOLING CIRCUITS
The inverter, on-board charger, (DC) converter and electric motor are cooled by circulating water supplying a radiator positioned at the front of the vehicle.

To optimise the life of the battery, if certain temperature thresholds are reached by elements of the battery pack during quick charging, ambient air or air cooled by the air conditioning is circulated through the pack.

Peugeot will unveil two new 308 models at this year's Geneva Motor Show, the innovative and practical 308 SW and the dynamic 308 GT THP 175.

This new top of the range petrol model will be powered by the 1.6 litre turbo-charged THP 175 bhp petrol engine, previously found in the 207 GTi THP 175. It is also fitted with a new 6-speed manual gearbox.

To match the dynamic nature of the engine, the exterior of the vehicle benefits from a number of cosmetic changes. The lower front bumper panel has a unique appearance which is combined with a rear spoiler and a reduced overall ride height.

Inside, the interior gains an aluminium gear knob and foot pedals and a new steering wheel design.

Designed in co-operation with the BMW Group, the 1.6 litre turbo-charged petrol engine develops a maximum power of 175 bhp at 6000 rpm but is characterised mainly by its generous torque output. With a maximum torque output of 180 lb ft (or 195 lb ft with overboost) at only 1600 rpm, the engine provides excellent in-gear acceleration and levels of driveability normally associated with a larger capacity engine.

This new engine provides the 308 with higher performance levels while, at the same time, providing a combined fuel consumption of 37.1 mpg and CO2 emissions of 180 g/km, 10% less than those of the 307 2.0 litre Feline 180.

Performance
= 0-1000 m: 28.8 s
= 0-62 mph: 8.3 s
= Maximum Speed: 140 mph
= Combined fuel consumption: 37.1 mpg
= CO2 Emissions: 180 g/km
