Peugeot has reduced the price and increased the specification of its e-Rifter MPV.
The electric people carrier is now offered in Allure and GT Line trim levels, with prices starting from £30,100 after the current Government Plug-in Car Grant.
As part of the model updates, all e-Rifters will now come standard with three independent rear seats in the second row, a feature that was previously an optional extra. An Ice White colour option also replaces the current Bianca White colour option, while a new key will feature a button to unlock the load area only.
The update follows earlier changes to the Rifter line-up, with the range now exclusively sold as full-electric vehicles.
It can be specified as either a five or seven-seat model. Powered by a 136PS electric motor and a 50kWh battery. The e-Rifter is capable of up to 172 miles (WLTP) from a single charge.
The e-Rifter comes as standard with a 7.4kW single-phase on-board charger, with an 11kW three-phase on board charger available as an option. A full charge via a 7.4kW wallbox will take 7.5 hours, or five hours using the optional 11kW charger. The car also supports rapid charging, with a 0-80% charge from a 100kW charger taking 30 minutes.
Five-seat variants of the e-Rifter are available in Allure Premium and GT trims, while seven-seat models are sold exclusively in Allure Premium.
Standard models measure 4.40m long, and Long variants measure 4.75m, with all variants allowing for an external height of 1.90m and a turning circle of just 10.8m. For added practicality, the e-Rifter can tow up to 750kg and is available with trailer stability technology that reduces vehicle speed when it detects the trailer swerving.
The interior of the e-Rifter provides boot space from 775-litres for the five-seat Standard length variants and up to 4,000-litres with the seats folded on the Long variant.
