Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years, the Peugeot e-408 or the Toyota C-HR+?
The Peugeot e-408 is £230 cheaper to buy. The Toyota C-HR+ is cheaper to charge, roughly £136 a year versus £176 for the Peugeot e-408, at 8,000 miles on an off-peak home tariff. Add 5 years of charging and the two land within £30 of each other - effectively the same to own. These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Peugeot e-408 and Toyota C-HR+ like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 177 miles for the Peugeot e-408 and 235 miles for the Toyota C-HR+ - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The Toyota C-HR+ goes roughly 58 miles further between charging stops.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Peugeot e-408 or the Toyota C-HR+?
The two are within 11 mm on width, so neither is meaningfully easier to thread into a tight space. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 541 mm of total clearance for the Peugeot e-408 and about 530 mm of total clearance for the Toyota C-HR+.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Peugeot e-408 or the Toyota C-HR+?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 84% battery health for the Peugeot e-408 and 84% for the Toyota C-HR+. 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.
