Frequently Asked Questions

• General Leasing FAQs
  How Long Will My Vehicle Delivery Take?

  Delivery time really depends on several factors, including the vehicle you choose, whether it's in stock & if you're having accessories fitted. If your vehicle is in stock, available & already kitted out the way you want it, it could take as little as 2-3 weeks to be delivered.

  Can I Lease A Vehicle With Bad Credit?

  Leasing is a form of vehicle finance or credit, which means funders will look into your credit history when you apply to lease. If you’ve missed payments or cancelled finance in the past, these can negatively impact your credit score. Vanarama works with more than 10 potential funders & we’ll always try to match you with a funder to suit your needs.

  Can I Cancel A Lease Part Way Through?

  A lease contract can be cancelled by requesting an early termination. If you request this, the vehicle must be returned to the funder & you’ll pay a penalty fee - the amount varies depending on the funder & the type of lease agreement you have, but it could be more than 50% of all remaining payments. If you lease a car with us, you will be covered by Redundancy Protection. This means if due to an unexpected life event you are suddenly unable to afford your payments, we may be able to help. See more about this here.

  Which Businesses Can Lease Vehicles?

  In general, any business can lease a vehicle & benefit from the cost savings leasing offers - even new businesses.

  Can I Change My Annual Mileage Limit Mid-Contract?

  Yes, although the process will depend on which funder your lease is with & if you are eligible to do so. If you think your mileage limit needs changing, call us straight away so we can discuss your options.

  What Is The Shortest Lease Contract I Can Take?

  The shortest lease term available from Vanarama is 2 years, up to a maximum term of 5 years.

  How Does Fair Wear & Tear Work?

  If your lease contract requires you to hand your vehicle back at the end, it will be inspected by the finance company for any damage that isn’t considered ‘fair wear & tear’. The odd bump, scratch or scuff is fine - after all, you could have been driving this vehicle for up to 5 years - excessive damage is not & penalties are often charged to repair it.

• Peugeot E-2008 Electric Estate FAQs
  How far can I drive the Peugeot E-2008 with a fully charged battery?

  The Peugeot E-2008 has a 50kWh battery which has an official WLTP range of up to 214 miles when fully charged. As WLTP figures come from near perfect test conditions, in reality, you’ll be able to drive about 175 miles on a full charge if you’re doing a mix of urban and motorway driving.

  Will I get the quoted range when I drive?

  There are several factors that can impact how far you can drive in an EV, such as the outside temperature or the speed you drive. Vehicle manufacturers are obliged to publish the official WLTP range on electric vehicles, but in real-world driving conditions the mileage you’ll achieve from a fully charged battery is likely to vary slightly from what’s advertised.

  The Peugeot E-2008 has an official WLTP range of up to 214 miles when fully charged, but in the cooler months of the year you can expect the real-world range of around 130 miles. In warmer temperatures, the Peugeot E-2008 will achieve a real-world range of 175 miles when fully charged. If most of your journeys are carried out on Motorways or A-Roads, the higher speeds will impact the range a bit more, with a real-world range of 110 miles in the winter months and closer to 140 miles in the summer.

  How long does it take to charge the Peugeot E-2008 at home?

  The Peugeot E-2008 will charge from 0-100% in just over 7 hours with a home charger. If you have access to off-road parking at home (e.g. a driveway), the quickest and cheapest way to charge an electric car is to have an EV home charger installed.

  Most electric cars can also be charged at home using a standard domestic 3-pin plug, although this isn’t recommended for day-to-day charging due to the length of time it takes. On a standard household plug, the Peugeot E-2008 would take around 25 hours to charge!

  7 hours sounds like a long time to charge, does it really take that long?

  In reality, you’ll never charge your EV from completely empty, you’ll be topping up as and when is required, so 7 hours is the maximum time it can take from a home charger. Plus, most of the time you’ll have your car plugged in overnight while you sleep, so you can leave the house each day with a fully-charged battery.

  What’s the quickest I can charge the Peugeot E-2008?

  Charging your Peugeot E-2008 can take as little as 25 minutes with the right charger. The Peugeot E-2008 is capable of ‘rapid’ charging at 100kW on compatible DC chargers, which are usually found at service stations or town centres.

  Typically, you won’t charge from 0-100% on a DC charger – you’ll be adding roughly 50-60% at a time and 60% takes 25 minutes – about the same amount of time it takes to have a comfort break and grab a coffee.

  What charging socket is on the Peugeot E-2008?

  The Peugeot E-2008 is fitted with the Combined Charging System (CCS) charging socket – a single charging socket which allows for both AC and DC charging.

  For AC charging the Peugeot E-2008 accepts the Type 2 plug and is capable of charging up to 7kW. For DC charging, the quickest way to charge an EV, the Peugeot E-2008 accepts the CCS plug and is capable of charging up to 100kW, on compatible chargers.

  What charging cables come with the Peugeot E-2008?

  The Peugeot E-2008 comes with one charging cable as standard - the Mode 3, Type 2 charging cable, which is designed for use at non-tethered (Cableless) chargers.

  Is the Peugeot E-2008 automatic?

  The short answer is, yes! All electric cars are automatic because they don’t require an engine and gearbox to operate, which means no more clutch presses and gear changes when you make the switch to an EV.

  What Brake Horse Power (BHP) does the Peugeot E-2008 have?

  The Peugeot E-2008 has a maximum power output of 100kW which equates to 134 bhp.

  Because electric cars don’t have an engine and rely on a combination of battery packs and an electric motor to drive the wheels forward, their power output is measured in kilowatts (kW) rather than traditional brake horse power (bhp). To work out the equivalent brake horse power of an electric car, multiply the maximum power output (in kW) by 1.34 to get the correct bhp figure.

  How much will it cost to charge the Peugeot E-2008?

  This will vary based on where and how you decide to charge your car but the cheapest and most convenient method will be to charge at home.

  The average price of electricity at home in the UK is 34p per kilowatt hour (kWh), so a 0-100% charge on the Peugeot E-2008 would cost £17.

  Charging at public chargers is typically more expensive but it’s still far cheaper than fuelling a petrol and diesel car. The average cost per kilowatt hour for a DC rapid charger is 63p per kWh, so a full charge would cost £31.50 but in most cases you’d only be topping the battery up by around 50-60%, so it’s likely to be cheaper whenever you use a DC charger.

  Will driving an EV save me money?

  The short answer is yes, but let’s explain why…

  Although on average, the monthly rentals on an EV lease are £71 a month more expensive than an equivalent petrol or diesel car, these higher rentals can be offset by the money you’ll save on fuel.

  On a 10,000 mile per annum lease term, you’d pay about £2,188 a year in petrol or diesel for an economical SUV capable of delivering 400 miles from a full tank of fuel.

  By comparison, to cover 10,000 miles a year in the Peugeot E-2008 will cost approximately £917 for the year if you charge exclusively at home. This represents a saving of £1,271 a year on fuel costs, or the equivalent of £106 a month which can help offset higher monthly lease payments.

  *Figures based on £1.75 a litre for fuel and £0.34 per kWh for electric

  How long is the warranty period on the Peugeot E-2008 and does it cover the battery?

  The Peugeot E-2008 comes with a 3-year or 60,000-mile vehicle warranty, with unlimited mileage for the first two years. However, most vehicle manufacturers that build electric cars offer an 8-year or 100,000-mile battery warranty with their cars and this applies to the Peugeot E-2008.

  And the great thing about leasing an EV with Vanarama is that even if you take out the maximum lease term of 5 years, your car’s battery will always be within the manufacturer’s warranty for the full duration of your lease, providing you with peace of mind motoring.

  What technology comes as standard on the Peugeot E-2008?

  The Peugeot E-2008 comes with the following technology as standard: DAB Radio, Bluetooth Connectivity, Automatic Air-Con, Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, Rear Parking Sensors, Automatic Lights & Windscreen Wipers, Pre-Heating Functionality and Electric Folding & Heated Door Mirrors.

  Higher trim levels typically come packed with more technology, so we always recommend checking the Standard Equipment section above to see what tech is crammed into this specific vehicle specification.
