Overview
Hybrid system

1.Petrol engine
2. Electric motor
3. 6-speed or 7-speed electric dual-clutch
automatic gearbox (e-DCS6/7)
4. 48 V traction battery
5. 12 V accessory battery
6. DC/DC converter
7. Belt starter
The 48
V hybrid technology requires no
connection to charge the traction battery.
The Hybrid system does not operate
continuously, but is activated according to
the state of the vehicle, the state of charge
of the traction battery, the thermal comfort of
the passenger compartment (switching on
the heating or air conditioning), the driving
conditions (acceleration, deceleration, braking,
engine start-up) and the road conditions (uphill,
downhill): –

The vehicle always starts with the petrol
engine to ensure the efficiency of the catalytic
converter and the availability of the brake assist.
–

In normal driving, the petrol engine and
electric motor work together or separately to
optimise fuel consumption and electrical energy
or to charge the traction battery
.
–
During the acceleration phases, the electric
motor provides an additional boost to reach
the torque needed as fast as possible and to
improve the acceleration at low speed.
–

During the deceleration phases, the electric
motor charges the traction battery
, using the
inertia of the vehicle.
– The driving in all-electric is possible for parking
manoeuvring, for 20
mph (30 km/h) speed zones
in city, on urban and country roads with smooth
driving and on motorways in slight deceleration
or downhill.
The electric motor is integrated into the
automatic gearbox.
The DC/DC converter provides the link between
the 12
V accessory power supply and the 48 V
traction power supply.
The belt starter restarts the petrol engine after
driving in all-electric.

6. Charging flap
7. Fuel filler flap
8. Driving mode selector
9. Domestic charging cable
The rechargeable hybrid technology combines
two sources of energy: that of the petrol engine
and that of the electric motor, which drive the
front wheels (traction).
The engine and the motor can operate
alternately or simultaneously, according to the
driving mode selected and the driving conditions.

Overview
The electric power alone provides the mobility
of the vehicle in Electric mode, and in Hybrid
mode in case of moderate demand. It assists the
petrol engine during starting and acceleration
phases.
The electric power is supplied by a rechargeable
traction battery.
Electric drive system

1. Charging connectors
2. Traction battery
3. Accessory battery
4. Heat pump
5. On-board charger
6. Electric motor
7. Charging cable
The charging connectors 1 enable 3
types of
charging: –

Domestic charging in mode 2 using a
domestic socket and associated charging cable
7
.
–
Accelerated charging in mode 3 using an
accelerated charging unit (W
allbox).
–
Superfast charging in mode 4 using a fast
public charger
.
The 400 V traction battery 2 uses Lithium-Ion
technology. It stores and supplies the energy
required for the operation of the electric motor,
air conditioning and heating. Its charge level is
represented by an indicator and a reserve power
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
The 12 V accessory battery 3 powers the
vehicle’s conventional electrical system. It is
recharged automatically by the traction battery
via the on-board charger.
The heat pump 4 provides passenger
compartment heating and regulates traction
battery and on-board charger cooling.
The on-board charger
5
manages the domestic
charging (mode 2) and accelerated charging
(mode 3) of the traction battery as well as the
recharging of the 12
V accessory battery.
The electric motor
6 provides propulsion in
accordance with the selected driving mode and
driving conditions. It recovers energy during
vehicle braking and deceleration phases.

Eco-driving
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's
nitrogen oxide emissions to legal levels.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after
the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow.
You will only see the fuel consumption of your
new vehicle settle down to a consistent average
after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).
Optimising the driving range of electrified
vehicles
The vehicle's consumption of electrical energy
greatly depends on the route profile, speed and
driving style, as well as the use of the heating/air
conditioning.
Favour the ECO and CHARGE zones of the
power indicator by driving smoothly and at a
steady speed.
Hybrid vehicles
Maximise the vehicle's inertia by releasing the
accelerator pedal so that the vehicle slows
down by itself (e.g.
when driving downhill or
approaching a traffic light).
When the accelerator pedal is released, provided
that the slider on the power indicator in the
instrument panel is still moving in the CHARGE
zone, energy recovery is optimal.
Energy recovery makes it possible to make
efficient use of the "passive" phases of driving
(deceleration).
The recovered energy is used to recharge the
traction battery and is then used for all-electric
driving or further acceleration. When the traction battery is almost full, the
energy recovery is gradually reduced.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
Connect the vehicle as soon as possible.
Anticipate slowing down as much as possible
and, if possible, favour decelerations with the
regenerative braking function activated (power
indicator in the
CHARGE zone).
With the vehicle connected, carry out
temperature pre-conditioning before setting off.
To optimise consumption during a journey:
► Program a destination into the vehicle’ s GPS
navigation system.
►

Select the
Hybrid driving mode.
►

Make sure that the battery charge level is
close to maximum.
►


Do not use the e-Save function while driving.
►


Use the heating/air conditioning system
wisely

.
Electric vehicles
Program a destination into the vehicle's GPS
navigation system to optimise consumption
during a journey.
Anticipate the need to slow down, and brake
smoothly, whenever possible using engine
braking with the regenerative braking function,
which will move the power indicator into the
"CHARGE" zone.
Use the air conditioning rather than the heating
to demist the passenger compartment.

Safety
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
The electronic stability control programme includes the following systems:
–

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD).
–


Emergency braking assistance (EBA).
–


Post Collision Safety Brake (PCSB).
–


Anti-slip regulation (ASR).
–


Dynamic stability control (DSC).
–


T
railer stability assist (TSA).
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)/Electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems enhance the vehicle’s stability
and handling during braking, and enable greater
control while cornering, particularly on poor or
slippery road surfaces.
ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD)
manages overall braking pressure on each
individual wheel.
►

When braking in an emergency
, depress
the pedal very firmly and maintain this
pressure.
Normal operation of the ABS may make
itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake
pedal.
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp signals that there is a fault with the ABS.
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at a moderate speed.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
This warning lamp, when lit together with the STOP and ABS warning lamps,
accompanied by a message and an audible
signal, indicates an EBFD malfunction.
You must stop the vehicle.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off
the ignition.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
After an impact
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
This system reduces the emergency stopping
distance, by optimising the braking pressure.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this
is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Post Collision Safety Brake
(PCSB)
If an accident is detected, the vehicle initiates
automatic post collision braking. The goal of this
system is to reduce the risk of further collisions if
the driver does not react.
The system is not operational if the capability of
the vehicle to trigger and execute the automatic
post collision braking is not available, as it can
occur in destructive accidents or in other specific
accident scenarios.
It is possible to override the automatic braking by
pressing the brake pedal or accelerator pedal.
Operating conditions
The system operates, if the following conditions
are met:
–

Airbags or pyrotechnic seat belt pretensioners
have been deployed by the collision.
–


Braking systems and electric functions remain
continuously operational during and after
collision.
–


Driver has not depressed the brake or
accelerator pedal.
Malfunction
In the event of a
malfunction, one of these
warning lamps will come on fixed on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the Service
warning lamp, the display of a message and an
audible signal.

Safety
5Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)/Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises
traction by using engine braking and by applying
the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired
path, within the limits of the laws of physics.
These systems are activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
These systems are activated in the event of a problem with grip or trajectory
(confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the
instrument panel).
Deactivation/Reactivation
In exceptional conditions (e.g. moving a vehicle
that is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow , on
loose soil), it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of
grip permits.
The ASR system is deactivated/ reactivated in the ADAS touch screen
application.
Deactivation/reactivation of the ASR
system is indicated by this indicator lamp
on the instrument panel coming on/going out and
the display of a message.
The ASR system is automatically reactivated
every time the ignition is switched off or at
speeds over 31 mph (50 km/h)
Reactivation is manual below 31 mph (50 km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ASR/DSC
These systems enhance safety during
normal driving, but should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It
is therefore important for your safety to keep
these systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in difficult conditions.
Correct operation of these systems depends
on compliance with the manufacturer's
recommendations relating to the wheels
(tyres and rims), braking and electronic
components, as well as the assembly and
repair procedures provided by PEUGEOT
dealers.
In order to ensure that these systems remain
effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow
or all-season tyres is recommended. All four
wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for
your vehicle.
All tyre specifications are listed on the
tyre/paint label. For more information
on Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the
vehicle or trailer snaking.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the
ignition is switched on.
The electronic stability control system (ESC)
must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99
mph (60 and 160
km/h).
If the system detects that the trailer is
snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise
the trailer and reduces engine power, if
necessary, to slow the vehicle (indicated by the
flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument
panel and the brake lamps coming on).
