Introduction, what car says....

Praise be to the Peugeot e-Traveller  because you can now drive your extended family through London without burning fossil fuels or having to resort to one of those expensive horse-drawn carriages.

Yes, you read that right: this very large eight-seat (or seven, if configured as such) van-based MPV is actually an electric vehicle. The e-Traveller is not only quiet enough to avoid startling the horses trotting down The Mall, but also avoids the congestion charge.

Instead of using a diesel engine (as is traditional with van-based MPVs ), you get an electric motor with up to 134bhp. The motor gets its juice from a 50kWh battery pack that you can charge at a rate of up 100kW if you can find a charger capable of that speed.

The e-Traveller's body and electric tech are essentially the same as you’ll find in a Citroën e-Spacetourer and  Vauxhall Vivaro-e Life . If you’re wondering where this Peugeot fits into that hierarchy, just know that both those rivals have stripped-out and rather basic entry-level versions to keep the price low, while the e-Traveller is 'the posh one', aiming to take on the  Mercedes EQV .

What Car? has a buying service

So does the Peugeot e-Traveller successfully fit into the niche but expanding sector of zero-tailpipe emissions people carriers, and how does it compare with the best MPV  rivals?

Read on through this comprehensive review to find out whether it's good to drive, how comfortable all those passengers will be, whether the running costs are manageable, which trims and engines we rate and much more.

Performance & drive

What it’s like to drive, and how quiet it is.

Your Peugeot e-Traveller engine choice is simple because there's only one option: an electric motor borrowed from the Peugeot e-208 and Peugeot e-2008 . There are three drive modes – Eco, Normal and Power – which vary the available power considerably, up to a maximum 134bhp.

The Power mode gives you the full whack, with the potential for 0-62mph in a not bad (for a massive passenger van) 10.8sec. If you stick the e-Traveller in Eco when you’re running low on juice, you’ll only have 80bhp to play with and a vehicle that will struggle to top 65mph on a level motorway.

Speaking of range, the e-Traveller has an official figure of 148 miles, and that's fairly typical for this size of van-based MPV . You can expect to get significantly less (potentially under 100 miles in our hands) if you’re travelling on a motorway while loaded up with people and luggage. The Mercedes EQV  has a much longer potential range north of 200 miles.

You can improve the range by using the gearbox’s ‘B’ mode for increased regenerative braking. This puts energy back into the battery while slowing the vehicle down, lowering your overall consumption. Even without it engaged, the brakes are pleasantly progressive as they switch between regeneration and the vehicle’s mechanical brakes. 

Ride quality – which is usually of greater importance than performance in a people hauler – is generally fine. Compared with a non-electric Toyota Proace Verso (which has the same platform), the e-Traveller isn’t as settled over scruffy road surfaces.

That may change with passengers on board, but it will still end up feeling quite bouncy over undulations at speed. Plus there’s a significant ‘thwack’ sound that reverberates through the interior when you hit a big pothole at town speeds. Fortunately, there’s no real motor whine of note while you’re driving the e-Traveller, and wind and road noise are well contained. 

On the road, you won’t be mistaking the e-Traveller for a smaller MPV like the Volkswagen Touran , but it is at least just as easy to drive. The steering is pretty accurate, although it does involve a lot of arm twirling when parking. At higher speeds, the body leans a bit in tighter bends, but you get used to that after a while, and generally appreciate the e-Traveller’s decent grip levels that allow you to maintain your pace down a country road.

The interior layout, fit and finish

One of the benefits of going for the Peugeot e-Traveller over regular MPVs and seven-seat SUVs is that you tower over other vehicles. That’s thanks to its commanding driving position, even in the seat’s lowest setting (you get height adjustment as standard). In typical van fashion, you sit above the pedals, which could take some getting used to if you’re coming from a car or SUV.

The boxy shape of the e-Traveller makes it easy to judge the width, but you can't see the stubby nose from the driving seat, although if you go for the top-end Allure version, you get front parking sensors, which you can’t add to the Citroën e-Spacetourer or Vauxhall Vivaro-e Life .

Citroën gives you rear parking sensors as standard to help when reversing in tight spaces, but a rear camera is only available as part of an expensive visibility pack on Active, or standard on Allure trim.

The e-Traveller doesn’t sound like a van, but it can’t hide its commercial vehicle heritage inside. Even the poshest Allure trim, with its ‘brushed aluminium’ inlays and leather seats, can’t hide the acres of hard plastic. At least rear air-con is standard, and the overhead console comes with plenty of air vents for good ventilation. A Mercedes EQV is quite a lot more premium inside, though.

All versions of the e-Traveller get a 7.0in touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth, a DAB radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring, and a USB socket. Sat-nav is an option on Active and standard on Allure. It’s a fairly easy system to navigate but some of the icons are small and it can be a bit sluggish to respond to commands. Allure models have a grander nine-speaker sound system that sounds plenty good enough, although it’s probably helped by the lack of engine noise getting in the way.

Passenger & boot space

How it copes with people and clutter.

You can have your Peugeot e-Traveller in either Standard or (with top-end Allure trim) Long, and you can fit eight people inside comfortably, with plenty of head, leg and shoulder room to go around. The difference is, you’ll have an easier time hauling around the luggage of those eight people in the Long version because it has a bigger boot.

The benefit of opting for such a large vehicle is that you can fit six actual people across the second and third rows.

The seats can be reclined for additional comfort and have Isofix mounts so you can fit child seats. They also slide so you can trade boot space for leg space if required, and all rows get a 12v socket for charging various devices.

A seven seat configuration with two ‘captain’s chairs’ for the second row is available for additional cost. They can be spun round if you fancy ignoring the driver and having a conversation with the people in the third row.

The e-Traveller in Allure trim has a panoramic sunroof as standard, and it lets lots of light into the rear without making much difference to the very generous headroom available.

Even with all three rows in place, there’s enough space in the e-Traveller’s boot to handle lots of holiday luggage. You have to leave a good space behind the car when you park, though, because the long tailgate is hinged from the top and needs plenty of room to swing open. Top-spec Allure helps with this by including a rear glass window that can be opened separately.

Buying & owning

Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is.

The Peugeot e-Traveller is more expensive to buy than the Citroën e-Spacetourer or Vauxhall Vivaro-e Life . Both rivals have stripped-out entry-level versions that qualify for the Government’s electric car grant making them even cheaper, while no e-Traveller qualifies. The premium  Mercedes EQV  is much more expensive than all three.

You can recharge the e-Traveller’s batteries pretty quickly. According to official figures, it’ll take around 30 minutes to go from a 10-80% charge if you can use a 100kW charging station . A domestic 7kW wallbox charger will complete a full charge from empty in 7.5 hours.

There are two trim levels available. Entry-level Active cars get manual air-con, cruise control, a digital radio with a 7.0in infotainment system, 17in alloy wheels and rear parking sensors. The Allure trim – which you have to have if you want the longer L model – adds Xenon headlights plus front parking sensors and a reversing camera, leather trim, electrically heated and adjustable front seats, a better stereo, and keyless entry and start.

Safety kit includes automatic emergency braking (AEB), adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance and driver drowsiness monitoring (in the Driver Assist pack). Blind-spot warning is standard on Allure trim to help spot traffic along your flanks.

Peugeot didn’t do particularly well as a brand in our latest 2021 What Car? Reliability Survey , coming in joint 22nd place with Mercedes and Vauxhall. Citroën did much better, coming 11th out of the 30 manufacturers included.

Every Peugeot gets a three-year warranty, and the battery pack is covered under a separate eight-year or 100,000 mile warranty.

Updated 2024 Peugeot E-Traveller adds range, tech and style

Peugeot’s electric passenger van now travels up to 217 miles on a charge and comes with new look.

Peugeot has unveiled an updated version of its all-electric E- Traveller van, now capable of much improved range and coming with some new styling elements. Available in two length options the E-Traveller joins a range of EV passenger vans in Peugeot ’s range including the new E-Rifter . 

Key improvements over the previous Peugeot E-Traveller model include a 50 per cent larger battery pack which now sits at 75kWh. This gives the new van 217 miles of claimed range, a significant increase over the previous model’s 143 miles. This larger battery powers the same 134bhp, 260Nm electric motor which sends drive to the front wheels. 

Charging capacities are unchanged from the former E-Traveller model. It offers onboard 7.4kW AC charging with an 11kW three-phase charger available as an option, as well as the ability to charge at up to 100kW on DC, taking 45 minutes to charge between 10 and 80 per cent.

The E-Traveller will be available in both regular and long forms, coming in at 4.98m and 5.33m long respectively, but retains a relatively narrow width of 1.9m to help traverse narrow city streets.

Inside, the updated cabin now features a new 10-inch infotainment hub and a digital dial set shared with Peugeot’s passenger models, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto . It also comes with a range of different tech depending on the chosen specification. This includes wireless phone charging and up to four USB-C points. 

The E-Traveller comes fitted with between 5 and 9 seats, including a Business VIP trim that features four individual leather seats, luxurious interior appointments and a tinted glass roof. 

Externally, the new E-Traveller features Peugeot’s latest design elements including triple lighting signatures within the LED headlights, as well as a blanked off grille and restyled lower bumper.

Peugeot e-Traveller MPV rivals

Mercedes-Benz EQV MPV

Vauxhall Vivaro-e Life MPV

Written by Keith Adams Published: 30 November 2021 Updated: 30 November 2021

This is the Peugeot e-Traveller, and it is the latest addition to the growing ranks of electric van-based MPVs, also complementing its maker’s diesel-only Traveller range, which has been on sale since 2016. It’s a passenger version of the e-Expert van, although with many creature comforts available, you won’t be left feeling like a commercial vehicle driver.

If you’re a city dweller, who’s looking for a flexible and cheap-to-fuel people carrier, the e-Traveller could be right up your street. Although the appeal of van-based MPVs is limited because there aren’t that many people who need an eight-seater, it’s good to know that you can now go fully electric.

Rivals include the Citroen e-SpaceTourer and Vauxhall Vivaro e-Life , which, aside from a few cosmetic and pricing differences are essentially the same vehicle. If you have a larger budget, you could for for the Mercedes-Benz EQV – an electric version of the V-Class MPV.

What’s it like inside?

The driving position is very upright as you’d expect with a van-based MPV, but it is a million miles away from commercial vehicles of old. Some members of the team have criticised it for having an uncomfortable pedal layout, although that’s not a view shared with everyone – so try carefully before buying.

The dash design echoes those of previous-generation Peugeot cars which lends it a rather dated air. The dashboard is easy to read, and the controls well laid out, once you’re used to doing it the Peugeot way of doing things – the column-mounted cruise control is a good example. However, the quality of the fixtures and fittings isn’t up there with, say, a Volkswagen Caravelle, and certainly lags behind the Mercedes-Benz EQV.

But accommodation for passengers and luggage are what the e-Traveller is all about, and it’s here that it does very well. Getting in and out of the rear is a cinch thanks to its sliding doors, and there’s lots of space and light thanks to the generous glass area and an optional glass roof. Legroom in the rear two rows is good enough to offer enough space for a six-foot adult to sit in – with the middle row being able to slide backwards and forwards to shuffle what room’s available.

What’s it like to drive?

In short, it might look like a van, but it doesn’t drive like one. It is easy to steer, with excellent all-round visibility thanks to that high-set driving position, slim pillars and acres of glass. The steering is light, albeit low geared and lacking in feel, so you will have to twirl your arms a fair bit in tighter turns.

As you’d expect from an electric vehicle, the e-Traveller majors on smoothness and comfort, especially compared with more traditional diesel-powered rivals. First impressions are that it is smooth, responsive and nippy from the lights – a view that is reinforced the longer you drive it. The 0-62mph time is 13.1 seconds and maximum speed is 80mph.

With a useful 136hp and 260Nm of torque , there’s more than enough pulling power on hand. Despite not sounding particularly powerful on paper, the way an electric motor responds is totally different to a diesel, with all of its urge available all of the time. In a nutshell, this gives the e-Traveller with off-the-line performance to shame much more powerful rivals, even when loaded.

There are three driving modes to choose from. The least powerful is called Eco, which limits the top speed, cuts off the air-conditioning and throttles power back to 82hp in a bid to extract as much range as possible from the battery. Don’t use it if you’re in a hurry or loaded with passengers. Normal brings you 109hp and Power unleashes the full 136hp. Use it and expect to see the battery range tumble.

The ride comfort and handling are very good, and it really isn’t van-like to drive at all. This really is what you’d expect considering it’s so closely related to a selection of Peugeot cars under the skin, which will be a pleasant surprise if you’re a van-based MPV newbie.

Peugeot e-Traveller range and charging

You won’t buy the e-Traveller for regular long journeys. The battery pack has a capacity of 50kWh, which restricts the distance it can travel between recharges. Officially the range is 143 miles, but that can easily drop to 100 in the real world when temperatures are low or it’s fully loaded. However, for short-hops, it’s fine.

Recharge times depend on your connection, with a flat-to-full replenishment using a dedicated domestic wallbox taking 7.5 hours. On test, we found a ‘very low’ to full charge-up using a 50kW public charger could be done in around an hour.

What models and trims are available?

The e-Traveller is available in long- and short-wheelbase forms: a 4.95m Standard model and a 5.3m Long version. It has a capacity of up to eight passengers, with as much as 4,900 litres of boot space when the rearmost two rows of seats are removed.

It’s available in Active and Allure trim levels, with both looking smart and well-equipped for the money – especially when compared with the Mercedes-Benz EQV. All versions offer a highly-flexible interior, with the second and third row seats that are fully adjustable and removable.

Active models get rear parking sensors, cruise control and highly-usedul twin sliding rear doors as standard. On the infotainment side, there’s a 7.0-inch touchscreen, which works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and also features a DAB radio with Bluetooth.

The higher-spec Allure adds a rear-view camera, keyless entry and start and electric sliding doors. The infotainment set-up is suitably upgraded with Connected 3D Navigation and a Head Up Display. Traffic sign recognition is also included, although blindspot monitoring and a 360-degree camera system – both useful on a vehicle of this size – are optional.

Peugeot announces electric Traveller van

• e-Traveller
• Electric Transporters

Peugeot is planning to electrify their Traveller. The van with up to nine seats is largely identical in construction to the new Opel Zafira Life, for which an electric version has also been announced for early 2021.

The Peugeot e-Traveller is scheduled to be launched in Europe at the end of 2020, several months ahead of its Opel counterpart . The drive system is the same as that of the Peugeot e-Expert and its sister models: The electric motor has an output of 100 kW, and there is a choice of two battery versions with 50 or 75 kWh. The latter enables a WLTP range of up to 330 kilometres.

The charging options are also the same: a single-phase 7.4 kW charger is installed ex-works, a three-phase 11 kW charger is optionally available. With direct current, the small battery is filled to 80 per cent in 30 minutes, the large battery in 45 minutes, which corresponds to a charging capacity of 80 kW.

What is important with the e-Traveller compared to the e-Expert is, of course, the cab. The model is available in two basic versions ‘Shuttle’ and ‘Combispace’, both versions are available in two lengths. The Shuttle version is aimed at professional transport companies such as taxi operators, airport or hotel shuttles. There is also the ‘Business’ version with five to nine seats and the ‘Business VIP’ version with six or seven leather individual seats and comfort features such as three-zone air conditioning.

The Combispace is intended for private customers, such as large families or travellers with sports equipment, as Peugeot writes in the message. The interior should be able to be quickly adjusted thanks to sliding and removable seats. The Combispace is available in the ‘Active’ and ‘Allure’ versions.

Essentially, the 1.95-metre-tall van should still fit into most parking garages and underground car parks. In terms of length, customers can choose between 4.95 metres (standard) and 5.30 metres (long). The 4.60-metre version available for the commercial vehicle trio is not offered for the e-Traveller.

Like the other electric models from Peugeot, the e-Traveller will be integrated into the digital ecosystem of the French company in order to be able to plan the route with charging points on the smartphone, for example. Further services are intended to support customers in entering the world of electric mobility and also help with resale.

In Europe, the Peugeot e-Traveller will be launched at the end of 2020; prices have not yet been revealed. Production will take place in France near Valenciennes.

Battery electric

Peugeot's e-Traveller Standard 50 kWh is a handsome MPV version of its fully electric  e-Expert van , sharing the same battery and motor. The seated configuration is heavier and means the MPV is slightly lower on range than the van, but the e-Traveller still has enough for numerous practical applications - and 100kW CCS rapid charging offers more flexibility for occasional longer trips.

Charging time for a Peugeot e-Traveller

The table below shows the estimated time to charge your e-Traveller from empty to full. For rapid charging, we show the time to charge from 20% - 80%, as charging tends to slow outside this range to protect the battery.

* Based on Pod Point estimates, charging time can differ based on the ambient temperature, the state of the battery (e.g. empty or half full) and variation in charging rate. Max charging rate may also be limited by the vehicle. ** Range per hour is the number of miles you can expect to get from an hour of charging at the relevant rate.

Connector type and charging rates

You can charge your Peugeot e-Traveller with a Type 2 connector at home, work or at a public charging point. There is also a CCS connector for rapid charging.

* Optional 11kW on-board charger available.

Where you can charge a Peugeot e-Traveller

You can charge your Peugeot e-Traveller conveniently at home, plug-in when you arrive at work or top up when you're out and about at locations including supermarkets and public car parks.

* Other charging options are also available, speak to our team for more information. ** Available for vehicles with either CCS or CHAdeMO connectors.

Cost of charging a Peugeot e-Traveller

The cost of charging your car will vary between home, work and public chargepoints (below are our estimates). Charging on the Pod Point Network can be accessed through the Pod Point App.

* Assumes tariff of 28p/kWh. The cost of home charging will vary depending on your electricity rate. ** Assumes tariff of 44p/kWh applicable to most network rapid chargers as of April 2022.

* For information on "WLTP" and more, please visit our Electric Vehicle Dictionary . ** Pod Point Confidence Range is the maximum distance we’d be confident driving on electric power between charges. Real range will depend on various factors including driving conditions, personal driving style, outside temperature, heating / air conditioning, etc.

Environmental impact.

* This metric estimates the environmental impact of driving your electric vehicle based on how the electricity that powers your car is generated. We take the average carbon intensity across the UK grid measured throughout 2021 to calculate the expected grams of CO 2 emitted per 1 km driven. The actual number will vary by region, when you charge (e.g. carbon intensity is usually lower overnight period) and whether your electricity comes from more renewable sources than the average.
