He smiled. “Then we build it. Call it the e-208 Gen2. But internally… keep the 098E code. For those who remember what it cost to make less.” If you actually meant a real Peugeot model (like 908 HDi FAP or e-208), or if 098E is a reference from a specific game or universe, let me know and I’ll adjust the story accordingly.
They rolled out onto the closed circuit at Mortefontaine. Malik punched the accelerator — 0 to 100 km/h in 8.1 seconds. Nothing thrilling, but enough. The real test was range: 450 km from a 35 kWh pack. Half the battery size of a Tesla Model 3. peugeot 098e
Twenty kilometers in, an alert blinked: Cell 47 thermal deviation . He smiled
“Last validation drive,” said Malik, her test driver, tapping the datapad. “If this works, no more rare earth imports for this segment.” But internally… keep the 098E code
She overrode the system, rerouted power through redundant pathways she’d coded the night before. The 098E stuttered, then smoothed out. Malik glanced at her. “You just rewrote the BMS live?”
They completed 380 km before the simulated cargo load demanded a recharge. At a 150 kW charger, the 098E gulped from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes — not class-leading, but efficient enough to make small batteries viable.
“Again,” Léa muttered. The same issue that had killed the 097D prototype.
