Peugeot reinvents its GTi badge for the EV age – and the E-208 is the best looking electric hot-hatch so far

Peugeot E-208 GTi.

Peugeot chose the petrolhead’s paradise of 24h of Le Mans to reveal its long-awaited E-208 GTi model, which it says will offer “class leading” performance and interoperates the DNA of some of the most memorable GTi cars that have come before it.
