Plug-in hybrid and charging

The new Plug-In Hybrid 195 e-DSC7 features a larger 21 kWh battery providing up to 52 miles of electric range (WLTP) whilst an updated 1.6-litre petrol engine mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic combined with a 125 PS electric motor produces a combined 195 PS and 350 Nm of torque.

There are three drive modes: Hybrid, Electric and Sport. The default mode is Hybrid, which prioritises all-electric driving as often as possible up to 83 mph. In Sport mode the battery power is used to enhance the petrol engine for maximum performance during spirited driving.

Charging the plug-in 3008 takes just 2 hours 45 minutes (0-100%) from an 7.4 kW AC charger.
