PEUGEOT Australia is pleased to open orders for the PEUGEOT E-Expert Van, the latest addition to PEUGEOT’s electric vehicle lineup. The E-Expert Van is PEUGEOT’s third 100% electric vehicle and the brand’s second 100% electric light commercial vehicle, following the introduction of the smaller E-Partner in 2023.
With a Manufacturer’s List Price of $79,990 (1), the order books are now open. The PEUGEOT E-Expert will be available exclusively in a single, long wheelbase variant, the PEUGEOT E-Expert Pro Long Auto. Deliveries for the PEUGEOT E-Expert are expected to commence from Q4 2024.
Featuring a 100% electric powertrain and backed by the reliability and cargo-carrying flexibility that customers require, the PEUGEOT E-Expert presents a compelling choice for businesses and professionals alike.
Kate Gillis, Managing Director PEUGEOT Australia, commented: “This expansion of PEUGEOT's electric vehicle offerings underscores our dedication to providing choice to Australian consumers, as they look for an electrified solution to their work needs.”
“With the new E-Expert we are introducing a renewed design, improved efficiency, latest-generation connectivity and more sophisticated driving aids. The new E-Expert also champions the robustness, versatility and driving dynamics that have made it such a success with professionals.”
Please note the specification and features listed in this release are indicative only and subject to change. Final Australian specification will be confirmed at launch.
The E-Expert marks a significant leap forward in design, versatility, and technological innovation in PEUGEOT’s mid-size van range. As the inaugural model of the new-design light commercial vehicles arriving in Australia, it promises to set a new standard in the segment. Combining durability with agility, the E-Expert serves as a robust yet nimble workhorse.
The front of the new E- Expert has adopted the new look of the PEUGEOT range, with a redesigned radiator grille featuring the brand's new emblem at its centre, new full LED headlights incorporating the brand's light signature and a bumper optimised for protection and aerodynamics.
Inside, the new E- Expert’s driving position has been extensively redesigned for greater comfort, ergonomics and practicality. The dashboard and steering wheel have also been redesigned, while the digital instrument cluster and the large central 10-inch touchscreen make the interface between driver and vehicle an enjoyable and efficient one.
Powered by a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 75kWh, the E-Expert produces 100kW of power and 270Nm of torque and delivers a WLTP test range of up to 330km (2).
