HOW TO CHARGE YOUR PLUG-IN HYBRID CAR

The PEUGEOT plug-in hybrid cars have been designed for easy and practical recharging.  The charging flap is located on the vehicle's left rear wingSymmetrical with the fuel cap. Once your car is charged, you can store your charging cable in a specific space under the floor of the boot. While your plug-in hybrid vehicle is plugged in and charging, a changing coloured light indicates that charging is in progress. Vehicle charge time will depend on the power rating of the plug and the charging point.

In order to maximise all-electric driving capacity, PEUGEOT plug-in hybrid vehicles offer you various charging solutions.

PRIVATE CHARGING

Charging from a Type 2 (Mode 3) dedicated electric vehicle charging Wallbox is our recommended way to charge your electric vehicle. The necessary cable for Type 2 (Mode 3) charging is provided as standard with the vehicle.

 

To benefit from our recommended faster charging solution, a Wallbox is required. PEUGEOT has chosen to partner with Pod Point, meaning you can benefit from an installation tailored to suit your home and individual requirementsSubject to survey. Non-standard installations may incur additional costs. For more details, visit: https://pod-point.com/products/homecharge

• 0-100%: 1 hour 45 minutesTo fully charge a PEUGEOT 508 & 508 SW HYBRID using a 7.4kW Wallbox.

 

You will need to buy an accessory cable if you wish to charge from a domestic 3-pin plug socket as an alternative charging option, however we do not recommend this as an everyday charging solution

• 0 - 100%: 7 hoursTo fully charge a PEUGEOT 508 & 508 SW HYBRID charge time at 2.3kW

CHARGING AT PUBLIC CHARGING STATIONS

The majority of public charging points in the UK are Type 2 (Mode 3) sockets, which will charge your vehicle at the accelerated charge times listed, depending on the power of the charging point and your on board charger.


ECO DRIVING TIPS TO ADOPT

DRIVE SMOOTHLY

To avoid increased energy consumption, tailor your driving to avoid jerking, as well as frequent and rapid acceleration and braking.
On motorways, reduce your speed to a minimum since high speeds quickly reduce the range of your HYBRID vehicle.

USE THE BRAKE MODE

Instead of continuously using the brake pedal, use the engine braking system, which generates energy and charges the battery when braking and decelerating.

USE PRE-CONDITIONING

While your vehicle is charging, take advantage of pre-conditioning to limit the energy used by the heating or cooling systems when you begin driving. Heating or cooling the car while charging doesn’t reduce its range.

MAINTAINING THE TYRES

It is essential to look after your tyres regardless of your car’s engine type. Plug-in HYBRID cars reduce energy consumption, but unsuitable or poorly inflated tyres greatly increase it, as well as being extremely unsafe.

OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLES

Plug-in hybrid or electric car: which to choose? 

It really comes down to what best suits your needs and driving habits, as well as your access to charging.

 

If you're used to driving long distances on a regular basis, a HYBRID vehicle is likely the best choice as you can cover long distances in the HYBRID mode, without needing to stop to recharge, as you might need to in an electric vehicle.

 

How to charge your plug-in hybrid car

PEUGEOT plug-in HYBRID cars combine the advantages of a petrol engine car and an electric car within the same vehicle.

 

A HYBRID car uses two power sources: a petrol engine, and one or two electric motors with a battery and external charging port. The difference between a full HYBRID car and a plug-in HYBRID car is that the latter has to be plugged in to recharge the battery, but has an official electric or ‘zero emission’ range figure.  Plug-in HYBRIDs can also travel significantly further in electric mode than full HYBRIDs and the electric mode can be driver selected – so you can adapt your driving mode based on the type of road you take.

 

Do plug-in hybrid vehicles emit less CO2 than vehicles with petrol engines?
