Driving experience
Audi Q6 e-tron
Quiet, quick and far more efficient than the old e-tron. The Q6 rides comfortably, steers accurately with decent weighting, and feels more agile and lighter on its feet than the GE, helped by the newer PPE platform. Rear-drive is the base; dual-motor quattro adds pace and all-wheel traction. The 800-volt architecture charges far faster on suitable chargers, and the larger battery delivers competitive real-world range. It is a more modern, more rounded electric SUV than the e-tron, with the same hushed refinement and without the efficiency penalty of the early car.
Peugeot 2008
The P24 is a 208 on stilts, and it drives with the same light, easy manners. Built on the CMP platform shared with the 208 and Corsa, it keeps mass low, so the front axle responds keenly and the raised body adds visibility without turning the ride busy. The small i-Cockpit wheel and high digital dials need a short acclimatisation, then the steering feels quick and accurate while body roll stays controlled. Most versions use a comfort-tuned rear that absorbs broken tarmac well, though big wheels and firmer specs add some fidget. The 1.2 PureTech 130 is eager, the e-2008 is near-silent and instantly responsive, and the EAT8 automatic shifts without fuss. It is an easy, practical crossover, not a sporty one.
