Peugeot e-2008 Will Be Discontinued in Brazil After Low Sales in 2025. Brand Is Already Preparing for the Arrival of the New Electric 3008 to Replace the Model.

The Peugeot e‑2008 will be discontinued in Brazil, announces UOL Carros after assessing the sales figures: only four units were sold between January and August 2025 — compared to over 600 since its launch in November 2022.

The electric utility vehicle imported from Spain is about to leave the national market due to low demand.

Meanwhile, the automaker is already preparing for the arrival of the new electric 3008 to fill the gap.

Context and Disappointing Sales of the Peugeot e‑2008

Since its debut in November 2022, the Peugeot e‑2008 — the only electric model from the brand available in Brazil — has sold more than 600 units.

However, in 2025, the numbers plummeted: only four units sold between January and August.

As a result, imports will be halted, and the car is expected to be discontinued as soon as the current stock is cleared.

Technical Details of the e‑2008 and Its Challenges

The Peugeot e‑2008 features an electric motor that delivers 158 hp and 26.5 kgfm of torque, powered by a 54 kWh battery, which ensures around 261 km of range according to Inmetro.

Charging up to 80% can be done in about 30 minutes when connected to a fast charger.

Despite these current specifications, the high price and reduced demand have prevented the model from gaining traction in the local market.

What’s Next: Peugeot’s New Bet

The gap left by the Peugeot e‑2008, however, will be quickly filled.

The French brand plans to launch the new electric 3008, a very modern medium crossover that will feature three electric versions abroad:

Electric 210: 210 hp, 35 kgfm, 73 kWh battery, up to 529 km of range.
Electric 230 Long Range: 230 hp, 35 kgfm, 98 kWh battery, up to 701 km of range.
Electric 320: dual motorization (front 210 hp + rear 110 hp, total of 320 hp), 73 kWh battery, range up to 500 km.

This new model is built on the STLA Medium platform and is expected to be imported, although there is speculation that it may be nationalized.

Overall Outlook and Market Implications

Although the Peugeot e‑2008 is saying goodbye to Brazil, its presence has played an important role in the brand’s electrification in the country.

It was the first 100% electric model from Peugeot to be officially sold here, and it served as a market test for the manufacturer to understand Brazilian consumer behavior regarding electric mobility.

Now, with the launch of the new 3008 electric, Peugeot aims to write a new story.

The question remains whether the brand can reposition its electric lineup more strategically and with a stronger commercial appeal — learning from the mistakes and successes of the e‑2008.

Overall Outlook and Market Implications

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

Discovery in Africa scares even scientists: a study published on April 23 reveals that the crust in Turkana has become so thin that it could pave the way for the continent’s division and the emergence of an ocean in the future, in a gigantic geological transformation.

Japanese garbage collectors treat filthy trucks as if they were dealership cars, and the obsession with cleanliness is so absurd that they invented a washing machine that only exists for this type of vehicle.

Seen from high in the stratosphere, a Lego Star Devourers rose to 34,988 meters attached to a balloon, returned to Earth intact, and entered the Guinness World Records in a record that seems like science fiction.

In 1991, Brazil’s GDP was almost double India’s, and today it is little more than half: while India grew 6.5% per year and trained engineers, Brazil preferred to train lawyers, and now it is rushing to strengthen ties with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

India built a 21.8-kilometer sea bridge to connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, and a journey of up to 120 minutes fell to about 20.

South America’s most famous oasis has an emerald lagoon formed by underground waters in the Peruvian desert. It is located 300 km from Lima, is surrounded by giant dunes, and holds a mysterious mermaid legend.

The electric classic fever resurrected Kombi, Fusca and other street icons, created a billion-dollar market of nostalgia on wheels, and angered collectors who see restomods as an assault against the soul of classics.

The gigantic supersonic Concorde flew so fast that 100 wealthy Americans booked an entire flight to outrun the sunset, pop champagne at Mach 2, and celebrate New Year’s three times.

Massive, isolated and with no crew on board, this “ghost” oil platform operates alone in the middle of the ocean and ushers in a new era in exploration.
