测试：标致 208 Hybrid 136 e-DCS6 GT
One of the most popular models on the Greek market has been updated, updated and electrified with two new hybrid versions. We try the strongest.
Somewhere in the commercial course of the model, as usual, a modification takes place, which includes aesthetic and substantial updates and upgrades. As for the smallest model in the Peugeot range, the facelift passed the definition of the standard. The electric version gets an upgraded propulsion system, while the conventional version adds two new hybrid versions.
In addition to visual changes including redesigned bumpers and light bodies, in addition to point improvements in the interior, in addition to richer comfort and safety equipment, the refreshed 208 has also gained hybrid interest along with the Hybrid version of the Hybrid version. 100 and 136 horses.
Both are based on the famous and award-winning three-cylinder PureTech 1,200 gasoline engine, which works on the Miller cycle, the famous Atkinson atmospheric cycle, known as the "Miller cycle" when turbocharged. An important change in the engine concerns a new variable-geometry turbocharger.
VTN technology has been around in diesel engines for many years, but in recent years it has found its way in gasoline engines, with Porsche being the first and best.
What is the reason for the delay? The higher temperature of the exhaust gases in gasoline affects the movement of the moving blades of the turbocharger.
In the 208 Hybrid, the PureTech is exclusively combined with the e-DCS6, an automatic dual-disc gearbox with six gear ratios.
Embedded is a 28hp/55Nm electric motor powered by a small, self-charging 0.89kWh battery, which occasionally provides electric drive.
In other words, it is an advanced mild hybrid system that can electrically cover some short distances in the city depending on the traffic situation. additives, etc., these distances can be quite long next time you refuel.
As Peugeot usually mentions, the 48-volt system also helps to improve torque at low rpm. Three-cylinder engine, which ensures a reduction in fuel consumption of up to 15%.
In fact, even under pressure, the 208 hybrid will not consume more than 7.0 liters. If driven carefully, the average fuel consumption can remain at around 6.5 litres per 100 km in mixed driving conditions.
For the coordination of the engine and gearbox, I would say that it is very ideal. The shifts are very smooth, and the mapping moves up and down at the right time.
Even in Sport mode, where most gearboxes have a hard time guessing the correct timing, the e-DCS6 responds positively.
The engine remains one of the best downsized, with an impressive torque rise at low revs. Thanks to the 48-volt support, it is much more active and, if you are careful, you will see that it participates in the movement of the French ultra-mini.
Sometimes, it offers electric drive (e.g., in starting or cruising conditions), which can be perceived by characteristic sounds at low speeds (the higher the three-cylinder tone, the easier it is to hear).
In addition to this, the temperament of the 208 is accentuated by its hybrid technology, even in a mild form.
It's a car you'll be happy to drive every morning when you wake up, and it's at least just as enjoyable when you want to move more nimbly, even if most of its competitors' supermini are limping.
From there, you'll have to compromise/get used to the tight space for rear passengers and the position of the small steering wheel (but let's not say the same again...... ）。
As a result, the most powerful traditional 208 is bound to be the most expensive (only available in the top-of-the-line GT version), with prices rising to 31,500 euros. Hybrid technology, as well as a wealth of equipment and automatic transmission, partially compensate for the price.
The good news is that there is also a 100 hp version of the Hybrid 100 e-DCS6 (starting at 23,400 euros). Although it lacks power, it performs just as well (0-100 km/h in 9.8 seconds and a final speed of 193 km/h) and has even lower fuel consumption (4.5 l/100 km and 101 g/km CO2 from the factory).
After all, isn't the latter exactly what mild hybrids are all about basically driving in cities?
