The Peugeot e-Rifter is already the sixth electric car from Peugeot. Earlier, the company introduced the e-208 hatchback, the e-2008 crossover, as well as the e-Expert/e-Traveller van (cargo/passenger), and last month – the e-Partner commercial van. And it is on the basis of the latter that the new model is based.

Technically, the e-Rifter completely repeats the e-Partner: it uses a single electric motor with 100 kW / 136 hp and 260 Nm, as well as a 50-kilowatt battery. The electric van reaches 100 km/h in 11.2 seconds, the maximum speed is electronically limited to 130 km/h, and the range on a single charge is 280 km. 80% of the battery capacity can be charged at a fast charger in 30 minutes. The driver also has access to three driving modes - Eco, Normal and Power.
