How switching to a new PEUGEOT E-208 or new PEUGEOT E-2008 can save you money

Considering a new car? Here at Arbury, we’re big advocates of the electric revolution but understand that people might still be unsure of the benefits of making the switch. That’s why we want to highlight some of the current advantages available to customers who choose to purchase a new PEUGEOT E-208 or new PEUGEOT E-2008 over their petrol equivalents, including those all-important cost savings!

The petrol and electric versions of these models may look similar from the outside, and they’re both packed full of plenty of user-friendly, modern tech and comfort features, so it’s looking under the hood that’ll showcase their real differences.

Replacing the petrol engine with an electric powertrain doesn’t compromise on performance. Instead, it offers more opportunities for you to save on things like fuel costs and tax rates.

What's more, the new PEUGEOT E-208 comes with up to £5,850 towards your deposit and the new PEUGEOT E-2008 comes with up to £6,950 towards your deposit at 0% APR finance when you buy from Arbury – making securing your new car that much easier!

To give you a real understanding of just what switching to one of these electric vehicles could save you, we’ve broken down some examples below.
