Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years, the Citroën ë-C4 X or the Peugeot e-2008?
The Citroën ë-C4 X is £850 cheaper to buy. Running costs are almost identical - about £152 a year either way, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the Citroën ë-C4 X comes out roughly £850 cheaper overall. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Citroën ë-C4 X and Peugeot e-2008 like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 185 miles for the Citroën ë-C4 X and 205 miles for the Peugeot e-2008 - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The Peugeot e-2008 goes roughly 20 miles further between charging stops.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Citroën ë-C4 X or the Peugeot e-2008?
The Peugeot e-2008 is the easier car for tight UK car parks: it is 30 mm narrower than the Citroën ë-C4 X. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 630 mm of total clearance for the Peugeot e-2008 and about 600 mm of total clearance for the Citroën ë-C4 X. The Peugeot e-2008 also turns in a 0.5 m tighter circle, which helps with U-turns and multi-storey ramps.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Citroën ë-C4 X or the Peugeot e-2008?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 84% battery health for the Citroën ë-C4 X and 84% for the Peugeot e-2008. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use NMC-type cells, so for daily use keep the charge limit near 80% to slow degradation. Both batteries carry a 8-year manufacturer warranty.
