Small in size, big in capability – Peugeot e-Partner Review
Many years ago, my parents used to have a small business that required the use of a work vehicle to get goods transported around town, and I recall it was definitely not the fanciest of things. I just remember they liked the car, but at that time I didn’t know enough to appreciate what made […]
Le FEV – Peugeot 308 PHEV hybrid review
Lefevre (pronounced Le FEV) is one of the most common surnames in France, with fevre being as common as Smith and ironically Lefevre meaning blacksmith.

We recently reviewed the all-new Peugeot 2008 GT SUV and found it to be an absolute delight, well there’s an all-electric version too and Peugeot NZ felt that we should test that out too, we’re pleased they did.

2021 Peugeot 208 GT review – Le petit Peugeot
