The all-inclusive electric car subscription service Onto has expanded its fleet with 250 Peugeot e-2008 GT models. This follows on from last year’s order of 300 Peugeot e-208s. With first deliveries expected in June, customers have been able to book Peugeot e-2008 models from 20th May.
The full electric Peugeot e-2008 is built with a 134 bhp electric motor and a 50kWh battery, capable of up to 206 miles of zero emissions range (WLTP) from a single charge. Using 100kW rapid charging, an 80 per cent charge takes as little as 30 minutes. The Peugeot e-2008 GT model features a design including a chequered dark chrome grille, diamond black roof, spoiler and door mirrors and full LED headlights with a distinctive ‘3-claw’ lighting signature. Launched in 2020, the e-2008 is the second model introduced as part of Peugeot’s strategy to provide a fully electrified range by 2025.
Onto is focussed on expanding its fleet and offering customers a broad range of vehicles to choose from. The subscription service aims to provide a flexible alternative to full vehicle ownership and leasing with monthly payments and no deposit. Insurance, breakdown cover, wear and tear, manufacturer recommended servicing and maintenance and charging at over 11,000 points are all covered within Onto’s single monthly subscription fee.
Rob Jolly, CEO and co-founder of Onto, said:“The Peugeot e-208 has been a popular model with customers and we’re excited to welcome Peugeot’s second electric vehicle to our fleet. With a stylish trim and strong mileage it is bound to be in demand. At Onto we’re focussed on making the switch to electric vehicles easy, accessible and affordable and we look forward to giving our customers even more choice.”
Julie David, Managing Director of Peugeot UK, said: “We’re delighted that Onto has chosen to extend its fleet with Peugeot’s new e-2008. The full electric compact SUV is a versatile vehicle that is both zero emissions and practical for all customer needs. Onto has been a great customer for Peugeot as we have continued to develop our EV range, and we are proud to be continuing our professional relationship with this latest order of Peugeot vehicles.”

Purchasing cost(s) have meant cars not being BEVs from the ground up but I.C.E./BEV designed cars winning the orders. With 100kW Rapid Charging as ‘standard’ the cars seem quite fit for long range trips. (Provided they have a HEAT PUMP as ‘standard’ to allow efficient British Winter long range trips………………………………..or else there WILL be problems!
