Quiz: test your knowledge of electric mobility 

b) 

The particularity of the VLV is that it is an electric vehicle. It is 2.67 m long and 1.21 m wide. It weighs 350 kg, travels at 36 km/h at best, over a distance of 70 to 80 km. The batteries weigh 160 kg. 377 VLVs were produced between June 1941 and February 1945. 

c)  

25% of customers do not use their vehicle at weekends. 

50% use their vehicle only one weekend a year in segments B and B-SUV. 

70% of customers use their vehicle only once a year for holidays in segments B and B-SUV. 

85% of customers in segments C-SUV and D. 

c)

Less than €2 per 100 km... According to AVERE (National Association for the Development of Electric Mobility), the electric car divides daily expenses by 5. A technological feat that does not come at the expense of performance. For example, the e-208 100% electric car offers good acceleration and a range of up to 362 km... while meeting the new mobility challenges of professionals in urban environments. 

a) 

Parking is free in Paris for electric vehicles, for both private and professional use, in all paid outdoor spaces (130,000 spaces). These vehicles also benefit from the 200 former Autolib' stations that have been reopened for parking and recharging. In the event of traffic restrictions due to a pollution peak, electric vehicles are still allowed to drive in low-emission zones (this applies to Paris, Strasbourg and Grenoble for the moment). 

b) 

There are 4 types of electrified vehicles: 

• MHEV P2/P3/HEV (HYBRID VEHICLES): Hybrid vehicles use electricity only when starting.
  Range: 2 or 3 km.
  CO2 emissions (WLTP): 80 to 140 g CO2/km. 

• PHEV (RECHARGABLE HYBRID VEHICLES): Rechargeable hybrid vehicles combine electric technology for daily journeys with a range of around 50 km and thermal (petrol) use for long journeys.
  Range: between 40 and 80 km
  CO2 emissions (WLTP): 30 to 50 g CO2/km. 

• BEV (100% ELECTRIC VEHICLES): 100% electric vehicles whose average range varies according to the model and various factors.
  Range: between 150 and 700 km.
  CO2 emissions (WLTP): 0 g CO2/km. 

• FCV (HYDROGEN VEHICLES): Hydrogen/fuel cell vehicles. The technology remains expensive to manufacture. It is not yet widely available but represents a possible solution for the future. PEUGEOT offers the e-EXPERT HYDROGEN for professionals. 

a) c) d) e) g) h) i) 

Apart from the degree of charge of the battery, the main factors affecting the range of a vehicle are: heating according to the outside temperature (the battery must supply a specific electric heater), driving style, speed (at 130 km/h, the range of a 100% electric vehicle is divided by 2) and topography (when driving uphill, your fuel consumption is increased and will impact on your range), as well as the number of passengers on board and any luggage they may have, the tyre pressure and the use of auxiliary consumers 

c) 

At the beginning of 2023, the Peugeot range will include 16 electrified vehicles:  

• 100% electric: e-208, e-2008, e-RIFTER, e-TRAVELLER, e-PARTNER, e-EXPERT, e-BOXER ; 

• Plug-in hybrids: 308 PLUG-IN HYBRID, 308 SW PLUG-IN HYBRID, SUV PLUG-IN 3008 HYBRID & 3008 PLUG-IN HYBRID 4, 408 PLUG-IN HYBRID, 508 PLUG-IN HYBRID, 508 SW PLUG-IN HYBRID, 508 PSE, 508 SW PSE 

a)

2025 

b)

Approximately 350,000 charging points  

The distribution of charging points in Europe is not always optimal. However, by 2030, the aim is to increase the number of charging points across Europe tenfold. 

b)

30 minutes 

New batteries and very high power charging stations now offer record charging times, suitable for long journeys. In addition, at work or at home, a dedicated charging point (Wall Box type) simplifies daily recharging.
