Updated Peugeot E-Traveller Is Better But Still A Little Boring

Shoppers will be able to buy the new E-Traveller with either a 50 kWh battery pack or a large 75 kWh pack

by Brad Anderson

Peugeot has quietly introduced a new E-Traveller van in Europe and will offer it in a number of different configurations to meet the requirements of various passenger transport operators like hotels, shuttles, and taxi services.

The new Peugeot E-Traveller comes with both a standard length (4.98-meter / 16.3-feet) and a Long (5.33-meter / 17.4-feet) version, and shoppers can choose between a host of different 5 to 9-seat configurations. The most luxurious is the five-seater that features a lounge configuration with 4 independent seats facing each other. In this configuration, the E-Traveller offers 3,000 liters (106 cubic feet) of cargo space; opt for the 9-seater, and the new Peugeot will still offer an impressive 1,500 liters (53 cubic feet) of space for your luggage. Load volume swells to 4,900 liters (173 cubic feet) with just 2 or 3 people on board.

Two different battery packs have been designed for the van . The first is a 50 kWh pack that provides the E-Traveller with an estimated 224 km (139 miles) of range on the WLTP combined cycle. The larger 75 kWh battery is expected to be good for 350 km (217 miles). Both versions are driven by a single electric motor with 136 hp and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) of torque. The van tops out at 130 km/h (81 mph) and offers 100 kW DC fast-charging support. This allows the 50 kWh version to charge from 5-80% in 38 minutes while the 75 kWh pack takes 45 minutes.

Much like other EVs in the market, the E-Traveller has paddle shifters on the steering wheel to choose between three levels of regenerative braking. It also has a 7.4 kW single-phase on-board charger and can be optioned with a more powerful 11 kW three-phase charger.

Peugeot has also made it look a bit more modern. with the front fascia revised with new LED headlights and a new bumper. The cabin gets a different dashboard with a 10-inch digital instrument cluster and a large 10-inch infotainment display. Both wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are supported and there is also a wireless smartphone charger on the center console.

Plenty of safety features also come standard. These include driver fatigue warning, traffic sign recognition, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, and different traction control settings for sand, mud, and snow.

It is with great excitement that we announce the Traveller has a new all-electric variant: the New e-Traveller MPV. Coming later in 2020, the New e-Traveller is the next step in Peugeot’s roadmap of creating a fully electric and hybrid fleet by 2023.

With the All-New 208 , All-new 2008 SUV , Peugeot 508 , All-New 508 SW and 3008 SUV getting an electric variant (as well as Partner and Expert vans), it was not a surprise that the popular spacious MPV joins their ranks.

• Silent engine driving
• It has a multitude of lengths available (Compact, Standard or Long)
• It has two distinct personalities (Combispace and Shuttle)
• It has a choice of trim levels (Active and Allure)
• It can manage up to 205 miles on a single charge of the 75kwh battery (142.9 on the 50kwh variant)
• It’s extremely versatile. The limited height of 1.9m has been specifically chosen to allow the new e-Traveller to visit the majority of car parks in the UK.
• It has three power modes to choose from for greater flexibility: Eco, Normal and Power
• There are two braking modes (one is for regenerative braking and one offers a more “natural” brake feel).
• The clever MyPeugeot app for your smartphone is capable of a variety of functions, including: pre-heating or activating your air conditioning from your home. You can also check the charging status of your vehicle and even defer the charging time until a time that suits you.

Peugeot e-Traveller electric minibus: prices, specs and details

Peugeot’s e-traveller electric minibus is open for reservations ahead of 2021 on-sale date; will start from £37,430 in the uk.

Peugeot is now accepting reservations for its electric minibus, the e-Traveller, ahead of its 2021 arrival in showrooms. A passenger version of the e-Expert panel van , it's available in a choice of seating arrangements and wheelbases. Reservations can be made with a fully refundable £250 deposit.

Prices start at £37,430 for the standard-length model in Active trim; standard equipment includes 17-inch wheels, rear parking sensors and cruise control, along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality. The e-Traveller is also available in Allure trim, which adds front parking sensors and a rear-view camera, keyless entry, sat-nav and a head-up display. 

Built on the PSA Group’s familiar EMP2 platform – as found under the Citroen C5 Aircross and Peugeot 3008 – the e-Traveller is powered by a 100kW (134bhp) electric motor that’s fed by a 50kWh battery under the floor. Peugeot claims a driving range of 143 miles.

Two on-board chargers are offered: a standard 7.4kW unit and an optional 11kW one. Peugeot says a charge from a domestic socket will take 31 hours, while a 7.4kW wallbox will cut that to seven hours and 30 minutes. The 11kW charger can manage a five-hour charge from a wallbox, while rapid-charging capability means connecting to a 100kW charger will get you to 80% in just 30 minutes.

On the move, the e-Traveller can be operated in one of three modes. Eco cuts power to 80bhp in the name of maximised range, Normal operates at 107bhp as a compromise between range and performance.

Power allows access to the full 134bhp and 260Nm of torque, for maximum hill-climbing and overtaking capability. Two braking modes are also included – Moderate and Emphasised – with the latter increasing the ‘engine braking’ effect when not pressing the accelerator.

To the untrained eye, the e-Traveller looks much like the standard car, but there are some detail changes inside and out. The electric model gets its own design of 'lion' badges and grille and, perhaps most tellingly, a charging-port cover on the front left wing.

Inside, most changes are related directly to the car’s electric powertrain: a head-up display and revised graphics on the central infotainment screen allow for monitoring of charge, range and other parameters, while Peugeot’s e-Toggle replaces the conventional gear selector. There are separate buttons to select driving and braking modes, too. An electric parking brake is standard, freeing up interior space.

The e-Traveller can be had in Standard and Long bodystyles, measuring 4.95 and 5.3 metres long respectively. Depending on size, the car can carry up to eight people, paired with a 1,500-litre boot with all seats in place – or with all seats removed, a massive 4,900 litres.

2024 Peugeot E-Traveller debuts with fresh face & tech upgrades

Peugeot has updated the  E-Traveller  van for 2024 with styling and tech upgrades, and of course, it now claims a bit more range. The new E-Traveller comes in two lengths: Standard (4.98 m) and Long (5.33 m); which means the Compact (4.60 m) option is no longer available.

The 2024 E-Traveller sports a fresh new face with new full LED headlights featuring the brand’s 3 claw light signature. The redesigned “grille” houses the new Peugeot logo, further enhancing the looks of the vehicle, while the redesigned front bumper apparently is more aerodynamic and therefore aids in efficiency. The rest of the vehicle looks pretty much the same, this includes the side profile, the wheels and the rear fascia.

Inside, there’s a brand new dashboard that houses a 10-inch digital instrument cluster (fitted as standard), a 10-inch touchscreen, and of course, a new steering wheel as well. Other key highlights include TomTom 3D navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto connectivity, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and more charging sockets (two USB-C sockets on the dashboard, two USB-C sockets in the second-row and two 12-volt sockets).

ADAS include Adaptive Cruise Control, Driver Fatigue Warning, Traffic Sign Recognition, Lane Keeping Assist, and Automatic Emergency Braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection.

Since the van is available in 2 lengths and several configurations, it can offer up to 9 seats on board. A face-to-face lounge seating configuration is also available with a retractable sliding table for all four seats. Seat upholstery options include a new fabric or perforated leather.

Moving on to the juicy bits of the story, the electric motor at the front offers the same output figures of 100 kW (136 metric hp) and 260 Nm (192 lb-ft) in ‘Power’ mode. The top speed also remains the same at 130 km/h (81 mph).

The new E-Traveller offers two battery pack options: a 50 kWh pack with a WLTP range of up to 224 km (139 mi) and a 75 kWh pack with a WLTP range of up to 350 km (217 mi). Peugeot claims to have included a new regenerative braking system with three levels, which can be cycled through via paddles behind the steering wheel.

All about 2023 Peugeot E-Traveller

The Peugeot Traveller/Jumpy is one of the most popular Peugeot vans/MPVs because it is large, yet not overly so which means that it isn’t too difficult to live with. The first generation of the Traveller was introduced back in 1994 while the latest generation was introduced in 2016. The e-Traveller electric version came out three years later in 2019.

So, if you want to know all about 2023 Peugeot e-Traveller, be sure to stick around and find out. For the 2023 model year, Peugeot is hopefully going to come out with a new or revised version of the e-Traveller, but that is not 100% certain as they already offer the Traveller in EV form while some models still don’t come with hybrid, and electric engines.

Peugeot recently came out and said that all of their models will be electrified in one way or the other for the 2023 year which also means that diesel engines are going away for good. Be that as it may, the e-Traveller still looks fairly decent inside and out which means that it does not look overly dated.

Reliability is much better compared to the regular Traveller as electric cars are inherently more reliable. The Traveller lineup is also competitively priced while practicality is as good as you’d ever want it to be as this is a van that can sit up to nine people and pack loads of stuff in the back.

 2023 Peugeot e-Traveller – The Powertrain

The Peugeot e-Traveller uses the same exact powertrain that you will find in a few other MPVs from its class as the platform was developed by Stellantis who owns Peugeot, Citroen, Vauxhall, and some other brands. This powertrain consists of two different battery sizes. The smaller one offers a 50kWh capacity while the larger one offers 75kWh.

This is good for about 110 miles of range in the real world for the smaller battery and up to 165 miles for the larger battery. Peugeot is likely going to keep these two batteries for now, but they are also likely to extend that range with better software and energy management.

The engine offers 134hp and 192lb-ft of torque which is decent for its class. Fast charging is enabled up to 100kW which is enough to charge the e-Traveller from 20% to 80% in around 26 minutes for the 50kWh model and 38 minutes for the 75kWh model.

All in all, the powertrain is likely to remain the same for the 2023 model, but with some efficiency upgrades and better energy management.

 2023 Peugeot e-Traveller – Design and Driving

As mentioned in the beginning, the current model of the e-Traveller was introduced for the 2016 model year which is quite some time ago. The e-Traveller came out three years later but it didn’t look all that different from the normal Traveller. With that being said, the e-Traveller does not look particularly dated from the outside, but it could do with a refresh.

The interior is very much the same. Everything is where you’d expect it to be and the build materials are nice. It’s a bit refreshing to get into a car with normal-sized screens, but that is not the trend these days which means that we can expect the next-gen Traveller to feature larger screens.

The driving experience is nothing special at all as this is a van after all. It goes about its business like a van does which means not dynamic, and is relatively stiff.

 2023 Peugeot e-Traveller – Reliability and Common Issues

As far as reliability is concerned, the 2023 e-Traveller is likely to remain the same as its previous iterations which means that it should be decently reliable for the most part. The e-Traveller did have some issues with the high voltage wiring while some also pointed out slow charging to be an issue.

However, there isn’t too much data online on how reliable the e-Traveller is which means that people didn’t complain about the e-Traveller all that much.

2023 Peugeot e-Traveller – Value and Practicality

As far as value is concerned, the 2022 e-Traveller costs £49,100 for the 50kWh model while the 75kWh model costs a few thousand pounds more. This is a hefty price to pay for a van, but electric vans do come with a premium over their dirtier ICE counterparts.

Practicality is excellent with seating for up to nine people and lots of space for everything else. The front overhang is almost non-existent which gives you a pretty good idea of where the front corners are which makes parking as easy as it could be.

FAQ Section

Should i buy the 2023 peugeot e-traveller.

If you are after a large, yet not overly large van that can take care of all of your commercial and personal needs, the e-Traveller is indeed a really competitive option. It would be a good idea to wait for the 2023 model to come out as it is likely going to be decently improved over the 2022 model.

However, if you aren’t a fan of vans and if you don’t really need a van, an SUV or a sedan is the better choice as these tend to be more efficient, look better, are more comfortable, and way more luxurious, especially at this price point.

Which cars rival the Peugeot e-Traveller?

The biggest competitors to the Peugeot e-Traveller are other Stellantis-owned electric vans with the same powertrain. These include the Citroen e-Dispatch, the Vauxhall e-Vivaro, and the Toyota Proace VERSO, all of which use the same platform. Toyota is not owned by Stellantis, but they did manage to get a hold of the platform to make their own version of an electric van.

Is the new Peugeot e-Traveller coming out in 2023?

It is not 100% sure if the new e-Traveller is going to make its debut next year as Peugeot is really busy electrifying all of their existing models and because the e-Traveller is still fairly competitive due to an overall lack of electric vans on the market. We can expect the new e-Traveller to drop either in 2023 or 2024.

Thanks to a 48V battery that is recharged while driving, this technology offers extra torque at low revs and a 15% reduction in fuel consumption. It also enables zero-emission driving for up to 1 km at low speeds and for short distances in the city.

A further expansion of the 100% electric range: launch of the E-308 and E-308 SW

The PEUGEOT range of 100% electric models will be expanded in 2023 with the arrival of the new E-308 and E-308 SW. PEUGEOT will be one of the first European manufacturers to offer a 100% electric estate car. With its saloon and station wagon, the Lion Brand will be able to meet all the needs of C-segment customers who wish to make the transition to zero-emission mobility.

Dynamism and driving pleasure, essential elements of PEUGEOT's DNA, were at the heart of the development of these new models, which inherit a new and particularly powerful electric motor developing 115 kW (156 bhp).

The new E-308 and E-308 SW also set a new benchmark in terms of electric efficiency, only 12.7 kWh/100 km (useful energy / WLTP range), a benchmark among C-segment electric vehicles, while offering a range of over 400 km (subject to the WLTP mixed cycle). This performance has been made possible thanks to all the advances made in terms of motor and battery, as well as aerodynamics, weight optimisation with the new EMP2 platform, and the reduction of frictional losses.

Also in the C-segment, PEUGEOT has confirmed the future launch of a PEUGEOT E-408 alongside the plug-in hybrid versions of its dynamic and innovative fastback.

The PEUGEOT E-408 will round out a 100% electric PEUGEOT range that meets all needs, from the PEUGEOT E-208 to the PEUGEOT e-TRAVELLER combispace, including the PEUGEOT e-2008, E-308, E-308 SW and e-RIFTER.

Another PEUGEOT E-208: more performance and more efficiency

The E-208 is the trailblazer in PEUGEOT’s 100% electric range and will undergo some major developments in 2023, namely with the new motor introduced on the E-308. The E-208's maximum power output will increase by 15%, from 100 kW/136 bhp to 115 kW/156 bhp.

Efficiency has also been optimised, to be kept to just 12 kWh/100 km, providing the E-208 with a 10.5% increase in range, or an extra 38 km to a total of 400 km in the WLTP combined cycle (under approval).

With a torque of 260 Nm available from 0 km/h, the PEUGEOT E-208 is silent and vibration-free and is as easy to handle and generous in terms of sensations. This further strengthens the dynamic qualities that have made it such a success. However, it is also attentive to serene daily use. For example, the PEUGEOT E-208 will get a rapid charge from a 100 kW terminal, going from 20% to 80% of charge in less than 25 minutes, like it currently does.

All of these qualities should complement the success of the PEUGEOT E-208, which has been the top-selling electric B-segment car in Europe since the beginning of 2022, and top of electric car sales in France. The PEUGEOT E-208 has already sold almost 110,000 units since its launch in 2019.

The plug-in hybrid at the heart of the PEUGEOT electric range

With the aim of offering an electric mobility solution that meets the needs of all uses, PEUGEOT has developed a particularly comprehensive plug-in hybrid range. Sedans, SW estate cars or SUVs, these models combine the allure, emotion and excellence that have made PEUGEOT successful with remarkable efficiency.

The PEUGEOT 308 and 308 SW plug-in hybrids are available in two power levels, 180 or 225 bhp, and offer up to 60 km of range in 100% electric mode. These engines have also been adopted by the all-new PEUGEOT 408, which will make its world premiere at the Paris Motor Show from 17 to 23 October 2022.

For its part, the PEUGEOT 3008 offers 225 bhp rechargeable hybrid engines, or 300 bhp with all-wheel drive, enabling it to travel up to 59 km without using the combustion engine. Finally, the PEUGEOT 508 is available as a saloon and SW, with a 225 bhp plug-in hybrid engine or a 360 bhp sports engine and 4-wheel drive for the PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED versions.

PEUGEOT's plug-in hybrid technology is also being put to the test on the track by the PEUGEOT 9X8 Hybrid Hypercar, which has been racing in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) since July 2022.

New PEUGEOT e-EXPERT Hydrogen with fuel cell: zero emission mobility for professionals

Equipped with hydrogen fuel cell technology, the new PEUGEOT e-EXPERT Hydrogen is PEUGEOT's offering to professionals and local authorities looking for the most innovative zero-emission mobility solutions. The major advantage of the fully electric PEUGEOT e-EXPERT Hydrogen lies in the reduced recharging time of its hydrogen tank, only 3 minutes.

With a range of 400 km, 100 kW of power and 260 Nm of torque, the PEUGEOT e-EXPERT Hydrogen can carry up to 1,000 kg of payload in a 6.1 m3 load volume.

PEUGEOT is also making its two-wheelers electric!

PEUGEOT will be adding to its range of electric mobility solutions, even for two-wheelers and will be revealing a new 100% electric scooter, the PEUGEOT e-Streetzone, at the Paris Motor Show. It will offer up to 112 km of autonomy in 2-battery version and ECO mode.

Equipped with one or two removable batteries, the PEUGEOT e-Streetzone can be quickly and easily recharged at any domestic socket. Thanks to its tried and tested chassis and handling, the PEUGEOT MOTOCYCLES e-Streetzone is the ideal bike for daily commuting in urban centres.

Its new technological LCD panel also makes it practical, since, in its 1-battery version, it has a slot under the seat to accommodate a jet helmet.

Finally, PEUGEOT Cycles also offers a complete range of six electric bicycles adapted to all uses, from daily city traffic to road riding, including off-roading.

Peugeot Traveller review

If you need an eight-seater family van or executive shuttle, the peugeot traveller deserves a place on your shortlist.

4.0 out of 5

• Generous equipment list, space for eight adults, excellent fuel economy
• Unpleasant gearchange, no entry-level model, noisy at speed

The market for eight-seater vehicles in the UK is small but meaningful, and the Peugeot Traveller is the French brand’s most convincing entrant yet. Peugeot’s confidence in the new people-carrier is best demonstrated by the choice of name. Whereas its predecessor simply added a ‘Teepee’ onto the title of the standard Expert van , the Traveller gets a name all of its own, distancing itself from its commercial vehicle origins.

• Best eight-seater cars to buy

The Traveller has some tough competition, not least from within its own family. Citroen and Toyota also produce very similar people carriers, named the Spacetourer and Proace Verso respectively. Running on the same platform and with the same engines as the Traveller, these three models are only separated by trim, equipment levels, pricing and some small design tweaks.

The three vans occupy somewhat of a middle ground in the size stakes. Though it’s available in three body lengths, even at its largest the Traveller is smaller than the likes of the Volkswagen Caravelle and Mercedes V-Class . It remains slightly bigger than traditional people carriers like the Ford Galaxy and SEAT Alhambra , so it faces an onslaught from both sides. It also has to entice family buyers from the newly redesigned Peugeot 5008 seven-seat SUV – a difficult task.

More reviews

New peugeot traveller 2017 review, used car tests, used peugeot traveller (mk3, 2016-date) review.

More interesting is where Peugeot’s positioned itself in the market. Leaving its sister vans to mop up the entry-level customers, the Traveller doesn’t offer a basic trim level. Instead, it begins with Active spec, which is packed with luxury features like a seven-inch infotainment display, climate control and rear tinted windows.

Step up to Allure, and you’ve practically got a limousine, stuffed with leather upholstery, electric and heated front seats and keyless entry. This is where Peugeot hopes to win buyers - with those looking to transport adults rather than families.  It sees these Travellers being used as taxis, airport shuttles, or just general business transport.

• Best MPVs and people carriers

Engines are limited to diesels, though there’s a wide array of power outputs to choose from. Entry-level vans are powered by a 94bhp 1.6-litre, but there’s also a 114bhp 1.6 and 2.0-litre versions with 148bhp or 178bhp. Whatever engine you go for, economy is a real strong point – knocking most other van-based MPVs into a cocked hat with 50+mpg available from all but the most powerful engine.

The Peugeot Traveller is a world away from its predecessor, the rough and agricultural Expert Teepee . While the newcomer is still unmistakably a van, it’s to Peugeot’s credit that it feels a world away from its commercial vehicle predecessor on the road as well as when you’re sat inside.

Car-like it may be, but the Traveller is still a van, and inside it’s every bit as spacious as the load-lugger it shares a body with. Available with eight seats across three body lengths, no matter which Traveller you choose there’s space to seat adults in all three rows. Boot space is generous, if awkwardly shaped, and massive sliding doors mean the Traveller is very easy to get into and out of.

Though it’s unlikely to draw much custom from the ranks of  private buyers, the Peugeot Traveller stands out as an executive minibus or small luxury shuttle. That’s mostly due to price – to spec a similarly sized VW Caravelle or Mercedes V-Class to the same level would set you back significantly more money and the Peugeot can live with this company in terms of its cabin ambience. Those vans can’t compete with the Traveller’s running costs either – it has impressively low fuel consumption and emissions for such a big, heavy vehicle.

Engines, performance and drive

The Peugeot Traveller rides on an adapted version of the EMP2 platform underpinning MPVs like the Citroen C4 Picasso . That could be why ride and handling are surprisingly good for a van-based people carrier. It doesn’t suffer from excess bounce in the rear suspension when it’s unladen, and proves comfortable across all but the worst roads.

Good visibility and a tight turning circle mean the Traveller feels smaller on the road than its bulk suggests, and it proves pretty easy to manoeuvre and park thanks to large door mirrors and standard-fit rear parking sensors.

• Citroen Spacetourer review

The Traveller is reasonably settled at motorway speeds, but twisting A and B roads highlight the steering, which is low geared and vague without much feedback. The gearshift, too, isn’t up to much, feeling loose and imprecise – it doesn’t have the same pleasing action as the ‘box found in a Ford Tourneo Custom .

Two different automatic gearboxes are available – an ETG6 automated manual on lower-powered models or a traditional EAT6 torque converter on the most powerful 178bhp engine. We’d avoid the automated manual like the plague, as it offers slow, jerky shifts that leave you with no confidence when pulling out at fast junctions, for example. By contrast the EAT6 is smooth and changes gear quickly, but it isn’t available on any other engines bar the most powerful one – making it an expensive choice.

The driving position is resolutely upright and van-like. While this ensures good visibility out of the front, it’s not perfect – taller drivers will find long legs get cramped quite quickly. We found the active safety aids such as optional-fit lane departure warning were far too trigger-happy, leading us to turn them off almost instantly. Allure models get a heads-up display though, which works well, and means you don’t have to take your eyes off the road so often. 

Two engines are available for the Peugeot Traveller – a 1.6-litre or a 2.0-litre BlueHDi diesel, with a choice of four power outputs between them. The range kicks off with a 95bhp 1.6-litre, which is fine for town work but not much else – if the back was loaded up with six passengers, you’d probably be struggling to keep up with traffic. A top speed of just 90mph means it suffers on the motorway, too.

Moving up, there’s a 114bhp version of the same engine, which shaves a couple of seconds from the van’s 0-60mph time and boosts top speed to 99mph. That’s better, but if it were our money we’d plump for the 2.0-litre 148bhp unit. This is a really flexible engine, with bags of torque helping you press on without having to rev too hard. It feels strong and should have no problems transporting a full load of passengers and luggage.

The 178bhp engine is more powerful still, but it seems like a waste of money when the 148bhp unit is so good.

MPG, CO2 and Running Costs

Peugeot and sister brand Citroen have some of the best average economy across their passenger car ranges, so it’s no surprise that the Traveller continues this trend. Compared with the VW Caravelle , which offers mpg figures in the mid-30s for most models, it’s only the most powerful Peugeot Traveller that dips below 50mpg.

Official figures suggest the economy champ is the short-wheelbase 115bhp 1.6-litre BlueHDi diesel equipped with stop-start technology. It claims to return an astonishing 55.4mpg, with CO2 emissions of just 133g/km, ensuring a reasonable tax bill for private and business buyers alike.

Our favourite 148bhp engine doesn’t shame itself, though, with an impressive return of 53.3mpg on the combined cycle and CO2 emissions of 139g/km. We’d expect you to get closer to official figures with the higher-powered unit, too, as you won’t need to work the engine so hard to keep up with traffic.

Stop-start technology is available in various forms across the range, and the resulting fuel savings mean it’s well worth buying a Traveller with it. 

Insurance groups

The Traveller starts out in Group 11E for lower-powered models. This quickly rises, and our favourite 148bhp engine is in insurance group 22E. The range tops out at group 24E for top-spec models. That’s still lower than even entry-level versions of the Volkswagen Caravelle or Mercedes V-Class , which start at group 28E and 34E respectively.

Interior, design and technology

The Peugeot Traveller is a smart-looking vehicle on the outside, aided by LED daytime running lights and body-coloured bumpers as standard. It’s impossible to disguise the car’s commercial vehicle origins, thanks to slab-sided styling, but a smart front grille and good-looking alloy wheels on Allure models can at least distract you from it.

Most Travellers will be silver, black or white, but if you’re feeling more adventurous it’s also available in a deep Dragoon Blue, Rich Oak or bold Amber Red.

Inside, the Traveller can’t compete with more expensive models like the VW Caravelle when it comes to interior quality. It’s not that it’s poorly put together – build quality is excellent and there’s a notable absence of squeaks and rattles. It’s just material quality that isn’t up to the lofty heights of premium rivals, though if you’re coming from the old Expert Teepee you’ll be very pleasantly surprised.

An upright centre console contains a slick seven-inch touchscreen, which is mounted high up so you don’t need to take your eyes too far off the road to operate it. You will need to lean forward, though, and that can be a stretch for smaller drivers. On top of the dash sits a heads-up display, which is easy to read and gives all the information you need.

Active models have cloth upholstery but still retain a leather steering wheel, which feels comfortable in hand, while the solid metal gearknob is very solid and reassuring. Stepping up to Allure brings you easy-to-clean leather upholstery for added luxury, while it also adds heating to the two front seats as well as electric adjustment. Dual-zone climate control is standard, as are cruise control, electric mirrors, automatic headlights and wipers, and a handy mirror to survey those sat in the back seats.

Sat-nav, stereo & infotainment

A seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system comes as standard on the Traveller, and we found it pretty easy to use. It offers up all you’d expect – DAB, Bluetooth connectivity, a USB port and aux-in, as well as Mirror Link Smartphone connectivity, but Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are sorely missed.

Sat-nav is a £240 optional extra.

Practicality, comfort and boot space

Passenger space is where the Traveller shines, with even the Compact models offering space for adults in all three rows.  Unlike some rivals, including its Citroen and Toyota siblings, the Traveller isn’t available with a double front passenger seat, so it’s limited to eight rather than nine seats.

Massive sliding doors mean it’s simple to get into and out of, and even rear seat passengers get a good view out thanks to large side windows. The rearmost two don’t open, though, so the air-conditioning will be getting a workout when the van is fully loaded.

Boot space in the standard wheelbase model is a generous 640 litres with all three rows in place, though it’s rather tall and shallow – you’ll be stacking shopping bags on top of each other.

Sliding rear seats allow you to strike a balance between leg room and rear seat space - especially important in Compact models, where rear legroom is tight unless some boot space is sacrificed. Both rear rows of seats are removable, and when out they leave a truly cavernous load area.

Cabin storage is decent, with a sizable glove box. The door bins are large, but positioned so low down that they’re difficult to access while driving.

The problem with a van-based MPV is flexibility. While both rear rows of seats slide and fold, they don’t leave a flat loading bay unless you remove them entirely. Taking them out is a two-person job, as they’re very heavy. A car like a SEAT Alhambra simply folds the seats directly into the floor, leaving a flat load bay – a much more practical option to have.

It might surprise you to find out that compared to an equivalent Volkswagen Transporter Combi, the Peugeot Traveller is actually wider, at 2,204mm. It certainly doesn’t look it, or feel it from in the cabin. It is shorter than the Transporter, though both in length and height, so it should prove easier to park.

Leg room, head room & passenger space

All three rows of seats offer enough space for a six-foot adult to sit comfortably, which is as good as you can say about the Mercedes V-Class or Volkswagen Caravelle . It’s certainly a vast improvement on most seven-seat people carriers, which tend to have third rows that are only really suited for children.

The high roofline means headroom is plentiful, too, plus there are ISOFIX mounting points in all six rear seats. Access to the third row is pretty simple – the middle seat tilts forward to provide easy step-through access.

Even the smallest Compact model still gets a 280-litre boot with all three rows in place. This rises to 640 litres for the standard model or 1,060 for the long-wheelbase. The load space is fairly tall and shallow, so you might find yourself stacking bags on top of one another, but it’s fine for suitcases and you can always slide or fold the rear row if you’re not using it to improve rear luggage space. 

Remove all the seats and, in the standard length model, you’re left with a cavernous 3,200 litre load bay. You will need somewhere to store the seats, though, and they’re very bulky and heavy. While they don’t fold flat into the floor, you can fold them up and push them to the front of the load area to minimise their impact, and there’s still an uninterrupted flat area of almost a metre behind them.

Reliability and Safety

Even though it’s so new, there’s little under the skin of the Traveller that hasn’t been well-proven across many thousands of miles in other models. The engines all see service across Peugeot and Citroen’s ranges, while the EMP2 platform the Traveller is based on has been used for years underpinning the likes of the Citroen C4 Picasso .

The Traveller is too new to have made an appearance in our annual Driver Power survey, but Peugeot itself ranks 17th overall out of 32 manufacturers surveyed.

Family buyers should be reassured by its safety credentials, though. All Travellers get a five-star crash safety rating from the experts at Euro NCAP, with an excellent score for child protection. Driver assistance packs like a drowsiness monitor, active cruise control and optional lane-departure warning and road sign recognition mean the Traveller also scored highly in the safety assist category, while autonomous braking should help avoid any low-speed collisions. 

The Peugeot Traveller offers up a three-year warranty, with unlimited mileage in the first two – handy for high-mileage drivers. That’s on par with most rivals, but the mechanically identical Toyota Proace gives buyers five years or 100,000 miles of cover.

Citroën Berlingo

Ford Tourneo Connect

Introduction, what car says....

How many people can you legally squeeze into a car? If it’s a big saloon, you’re looking at five tops. A chunky SUV, MPV or even some estate cars can swallow seven – but surely that’s the limit, right? Not necessarily.

You see, the Peugeot Traveller can hold up to nine of your nearest and dearest including your good self. If that seems excessive, you can get versions with five, six, seven or eight seats, too. And you’ve got a choice of three lengths.

If that sounds more like the kind of flexibility you’d get from a minibus, that’s because it basically is. Like the near-identical Citroën Spacetourer or rivals such as the Volkswagen Caravelle , Ford Tourneo and Mercedes-Benz V-Class , the Traveller is essentially a van with windows, alloy wheels and a smattering of luxury accouterments.

Over the next few pages, we’ll look at just how practical the Traveller is, what it’s like to drive and which version is best. Don’t forget to look at our new car deals for big savings on this and many other new cars.

What Car? has a buying service

Performance & drive, what it’s like to drive, and how quiet it is.

There are four engine options for the Traveller. Kicking off the range is a 1.6-litre diesel with 94bhp that’s attached to a six-speed manual gearbox. It’s cheap, but it’s likely to struggle with a few people on board; it’s also only available in the shortest body and in Business trim. The next engine up, another 1.6-litre diesel but with 113bhp, is better but only if you don’t mind leisurely acceleration.

We’d recommend spending a little more to get the 148bhp 2.0-litre diesel with a manual ’box. Its larger size provides more low-end power, meaning it doesn’t need working as hard to get up to speed. Performance will only ever be adequate, but the Traveller isn’t the kind of thing you’d want to hustle along a country road anyway.

The final option is a 2.0-litre diesel with 178bhp and a standard automatic gearbox. It certainly makes motorway work easier, thanks to the additional power, and the automatic ’box is smooth when changing gear in automatic mode. The trouble is that it’s only available in Allure trim or in the longest body in Business and Business VIP trims, making the car very expensive. Refinement is good in both 2.0 diesels, with little vibration and hushed manners when you’re at a cruise.

If you’re ambling along, the Traveller is a comfortable companion for the most part. Smooth but undulating roads are soaked up with a gentle waftiness that suits the relaxed nature of the driving experience. This calm is shattered when you run over broken road surfaces or expansion joints, though, with the Traveller bobbling around noticeably.

Get to a corner and there’s no mistaking that the Traveller is a van underneath. The steering is quite slow and there’s an awful lot of body roll if you corner with even moderate enthusiasm. Grip levels are lower than in a regular MPV, with the front end always gently washing wide if you’re going too quickly.

Although there isn’t four-wheel drive, you can get something called Grip Control. This is a switchable traction control system with different modes for snow, mud, sand and other surfaces. You also get all-season mud and snow tyres thrown in, making for a surprisingly effective winter wagon.

The interior layout, fit and finish

The first thing you’ll notice when you clamber into the Traveller is just how high up you sit. Even with the height-adjustable driver’s seat on its lowest setting, you tower over SUVs for a truly commanding view of the road.

Visibility is for the most part very good, thanks to the Traveller’s boxy shape. Only the disappearing nose makes it tricky to park since you’re never quite sure where the front bumper is. To help, Active models get rear parking sensors, while Allure trim gets front parking sensors and a rear-view camera system.

Look around the interior and it’s clear that you’re in something that’s basically a van. There may be lashings of chrome-effect trim and even a leather-wrapped steering wheel on Allure and Business VIP models, but the acres of hard plastic give the game away.

All versions get a 7.0in touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth, a DAB radio, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone mirroring and a USB socket. Sat-nav is optional on Active trim and standard on Allure and upwards. The system is fairly easy to navigate but some of the icons are small and it can be a bit sluggish to respond to commands.

Passenger & boot space

How it copes with people and clutter.

Unusually for an MPV (but not for a van), the Traveller is available in three lengths. While the smallest, Compact, is likely to feel a little cramped if you opt for three rows of seating (an option on all models), the middle Standard option has plenty of space for people as long as you don’t mind a very small boot or only two rows of seats.

As for the Long variant, it can seat three rows of people in comfort with room for luggage. Compared with a Seat Alhambra or Ford Galaxy , even the Standard variant feels much more spacious and is suitable for full-sized adults in all three rows.

Most versions come as standard with five seats (two in the front, three in the back), with three seats optional in the third row. Business VIP models get two seats for the second row as standard, with a sliding central armrest with the option of pop-out tray tables. Business models get the option of a three-seater front bench to allow up to nine people aboard.

The second and third row seats can be slid backwards and forward, and can be reclined to prioritise space or comfort on all models. If you really want the maximum amount of space, rows two and three can be removed entirely for a load area that’s as cavernous as a van’s (surprise, surprise). Just bear in mind that the seats are pretty hefty, so we’d recommend calling on the help of a friend to remove them.

If all that wasn’t practical enough, there’s also a cornucopia of storage solutions dotted around the interior. There are some of the biggest door pockets we’ve ever come across, two gloveboxes, a cubby on the top of the dash and a handy shelf by the USB port that’s the perfect size for a smartphone.

Buying & owning

Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is.

All Travellers have a price that starts with a three, while you can easily spend significantly more than that if you want a larger, high-end model with one of the 2.0 diesel engines. There’s no doubting that you get an awful lot of motor for your money, but we’d recommend an Active model with the 148bhp 2.0 diesel engine.

This gets you a 7.0in touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, as well as a DAB radio, auto lights and wipers, dual-zone climate control and rear parking sensors. Sat-nav can be taken care of by your smartphone via the infotainment system, while you might want to consider adding a third row of seats.

Allure is too expensive to recommend, although Business trim could be worth considering if you need nine seats.

In terms of length, Long can be a little unwieldy, so unless you need the extra luggage space stick to Standard.

As for running costs, they might be a little higher than you’d think, given the relatively small diesel engines. Because the Traveller is a big heavy thing, CO2 emissions range from 137g/km to 155g/km depending on engine – this is worth bearing in mind if you’re a business user. Fuel economy will be worse than the likes of the Ford Galaxy or Seat Alhambra but on a par with similarly sized van-based MPVs.

The Traveller should be commended for its five-star Euro NCAP rating, with higher scores than the Galaxy in all categories but pedestrian protection. Even so, you have to pay extra for automatic emergency braking and a Mercedes-Benz V-Class is better at protecting adults.

Sights of Elektrostal, Moscow region

Table of contents:, history of the city, park of culture and leisure, historical and art museum, october cultural center, kristall ice palace, memorial complex, museum and exhibition complex.

2024 Author : Harold Hamphrey | [email protected] . Last modified: 2023-12-17 10:06

In the Moscow region there is a small cozy town Elektrostal. Its sights for the most part have no historical value due to the fact that the city has a relatively small history. But for a visiting tourist or city dweller, they will be of interest. There is something to see, where to go to have an exciting leisure time.

Today the population of the city is 158 thousand people. Until the beginning of the 20th century there were several small workers' settlements here. After the opening of the electrometallurgical and equipment factories, the place began to be called the natural boundary of Calm. The construction of the railway made this settlement accessible, and workers and families flocked here to earn money. In 1925, the station was named Elektrostal, and the rapid increase in population allowed the village to receive the status of a city.

The founder of the city is a prominent Russian industrialist Nikolai Vtorov. It was he who opened the plant here, creating, in fact, a city-forming enterprise that is still operating. In Soviet times, it was a closed facility, and it was not easy to get to work here.

Today Elektrostal is a promising industrial city with a great future and a heroic past. It bears the proud name "City of Military and Labor Glory".

You can learn about the sights of Elektrostal with descriptions and photos here. There are places for walking, outdoor activities and cultural development.

Those who come to the city by train are met by a monument to the metallurgist. It was installed in November 2017 for the 100th anniversary of the Elektrostal plant. The attraction is made in the style of constructivism. The monument quickly won the love of the townspeople, because this city is supported by ordinary workers.

Elektrost altsy and the founding father of the plant, Nikolai Vtorov, are honored. In 2002, a monument was opened in honor of him, which became a landmark of the city of Elektrostal. The bronze sculpture is installed on the site where once stood a monument to the leader of the world proletariat, V. I. Lenin. Times change, characters change. Today, the plant, founded a century ago, is the largest in Russia. Vtorov himself, whose fortune was estimated at 60 million rubles in gold, according to Forbes magazine, was the owner of the largest capital at the beginning of the century. He was a banker, an industrialist, an entrepreneur, a man of action.

The monument was erected byinitiative of the townspeople who wished to perpetuate the monument to the great man.

One of the popular places for spending weekends and evenings among citizens and guests of the city is the Park of Culture and Leisure. Here you can ride attractions for children and adults, play slot machines, rollerblade or bike. The park is divided into two zones. Fans of unhurried walks in the fresh air make a promenade on the Quiet Alley, and those who prefer outdoor activities flock to the Entertainment Alley. The park has a summer stage, where concerts and cafes are regularly held.

Until 1999, there was no central museum among the attractions of Elektrostal in the Moscow Region. The expositions were exhibited in schools, the house of culture, in factory museums. The city was closed, so there was no large influx of tourists and visitors. The appearance of the historical and art museum made it possible for residents and guests of the city to learn a lot of useful information about their native land, the formation of the production process, and the difficult years of the war. The exposition consists of paintings by local artists, historical artifacts, household items, documents, books and much more. The collection is updated regularly. It also hosts outdoor exhibitions, which are always popular with the townspeople.

One of the main attractions of Elektrostal, the photo of which is available to almost every resident or visitor, is the Main Alley. On herpassers-by like to stroll along shady paths, townspeople rest by the fountain after a hard shift at the plant. Flower beds are the decoration of the alley. In 2006, a flower festival was held here for the first time, which has become traditional. Each enterprise of the city and private individuals give residents a real composition of fresh flowers, which pleases with bright colors all summer long. A riot of colors, aromas and a flight of fantasy reigns here. Walking through the park, you can see Snow White with a basket, a bright well, a multi-tiered cake made from fresh flowers, hearts of lovers or a fabulous house. It is almost impossible not to take a photo against the background of these compositions.

There is a cultural center in the city. It hosts performances by local creative teams and visiting stars, performances and circus performances.

In 1971, the ice palace "Crystal" was opened in the city. Almost immediately, a children's and youth hockey team was organized, which gained sports fame. This is the home sports arena for the Elektrostal hockey team. Matches of different levels are held on the ice.

There are sections for children who go in for hockey or figure skating. Citizens come here with their families to cheer for their favorite team or go ice skating.

Elektrostal is a city with a heroic past. During the war years, more than 12 thousand citizens came to the recruiting station and went to the front to defend their homeland. Almost 4 thousand of them did not return from the battle. To these heroesdedicated to the memorial complex with the inextinguishable Eternal Flame, opened in 1968

But the electricians took part in the war in Afghanistan and Chechnya. By decision of the city authorities, their memory is also immortalized in the memorial complex.

It has become a good tradition for newlyweds to lay flowers at this monument.

In 1999, a museum and exhibition complex was opened in the city, where, in addition to the exhibition hall, there are numerous circles for children, classes for young people, and a creative workshop. Various festivals, exhibitions, city holidays and other events are held within the walls and on the territory of the complex, which attract many spectators.

Listing the sights of Elektrostal, it is impossible not to mention the temples. There are several of them in the city: the church of St. John of Kronstadt, St. Andrew's Church, the hospital church of St. Panteleimon. Another new church is being built. In appearance, the temples look ancient, monumental, in the Novgorod style. But they were all built at the end of the 20th century.

Let there be no ancient artifacts among the sights of Elektrostal. But on the other hand, all of them are connected with the history of the city, with everyday work and military exploits of ordinary residents.
