With a high specification as standard, the iOn remains true to its design as a modern and practical city car. An onboard computer, remote controlled central locking, front and rear electric windows, daytime running lights, two retractable cup-holders and a 12V socket simplify life onboard.

The Peugeot Connect box looks out for you in the event of an accident. It places an automatic emergency call in the event that the airbags or pyrotechnic seatbelts are activated. You can also place an emergency call manually, thanks to the SOS button located on the dashboard. The vehicle is then located and the appropriate emergency services are sent immediately.

The Peugeot iOn offers unique environmental features: zero polluting emissions and zero CO₂ emissions while driving. It was awarded an Auto Environment Grand Prix in 2010, an award organised by MAAF Assurances, recognising vehicles and technologies used with the aim of preserving the environment.

The iOn is equipped with a Lithium-ion battery, with an energy storage capacity well above that of former NiCd batteries used in the 1990s. This battery does not have a memory, which means that it can be recharged even when partially full, without having to regularly perform total discharges.
Easy to use, it takes just six hours on a standard Based on domestic-use 220V single phase current using a secure 5 metre cable. domestic outlet to fully recharge.
Rapid recharging is possible with a specific recharging point delivering continuous high current, in 15 minutes for 50% of the battery capacity and 30 minutes for 80%.

EXTERIOR DESIGN

Stylish and economical, the iOn is perfectly designed for city driving.

A sculpted shape, with a compact curved bonnet extending towards a big sloping windscreen and large window area, the iOn immediately attracts attention. Its original, dynamic look, coupled with its technology gives its driver a modern, environmentally responsible image. All iOns are equipped with alloy wheels, fog lights and automatic lighting.

INTERIOR DESIGN

Everything in the interior of the iOn has been carefully considered to offer a feeling of well-beingand space onboard.

The driving position highlights new instrumentation specific to electric vehicles, such as a battery level indicator and a power consumption/output indicator that provides a snapshot view of the level of power consumption or recharge. These indicators progressively indicate the need for recharging from a level of two bars approximately 15% power remaining. In addition to standard information, the onboard computer indicates range calculated based on the driving conditions observed over the last few kilometres, for controlled, simplified travelling.

Compact, the Peugeot iOn surprises with its generous interior space. Thanks to its 2.55m wheelbase and high structure, it comfortably accommodates four adults. The height of the driving seat is adjustable, and the rear seat comprises two individual seats with individually adjustable backrests.

With a high specification as standard, the iOn remains true to its design as a modern and practical city car. An onboard computer, remote controlled central locking, front and rear electric windows, daytime running lights, two retractable cup-holders and a 12V socket simplify life onboard.

The rear seats fold back individually to allow for a larger loading area. A utility vehicle transformation kit Utility vehicle kit. allows for the back seat and seatbelts to be removed, in order to benefit from flat carpeted flooring, to which a metal stowage grill is fixed behind the front seats. Configured in this way, the iOn offers a usable volume of approximately 1 m3 with a payload of 330 kg with driver and transformation kit included net load of 308 kg. A load cover is available as an optional extra.

Driving the iOn provides a new soothing sensation due to the impression of silence Take care nonetheless to stay in charge of your vehicle and remain aware of the outside environment unfamiliar with silent-running vehicles., enhanced by a lack of vibration. The iOn’s outside noise level is limited to road and aerodynamic noise, ideal qualities for city traffic.

Anti-freeze wing mirrors, a heated driving seat and anti-freeze radiator can be added to the iOn to confidently handle the coldest weather optional extra.

The iOn has electric air-conditioning, with an automatic setting for air flow and direction.

TECHNOLOGY

With its technological equipment, the iOn offers all the benefits of a modern, city vehicle.

The iOn incorporates an MP3 compatible CD radio and USB port. The Bluetooth® function allows you to make telephone calls safely, and listen to music stored on compatible telephones. The acoustics are well distributed throughout the passenger compartment The driver must nonetheless remain attentive to the outside environment. thanks to two tweeters in the dashboard and two loudspeakers in the front doors.

The iOn offers a mobile, connected navigation system optional extra, with dedicated installation in the dashboard. This technology allows for the indication of recharging points, guidance, receiving traffic info, and interest-based information search (restaurants, hotels, etc.).

The iOn’s main marketing force is that of simple, transparent “all-inclusive” Subject to membership. mobility, which depending on the country includes: hire, care and maintenance, electric-specific assistance and access to the Mu by Peugeot mobility programme for private individuals. No surprises for the customer, neither during, nor at the end of the contract.

SAFETY

Practical, dynamic and easy to drive, the iOn is well-equipped when it comes to safety.

All of the iOn’s seats are connected to sensors: front passengers not buckled up, rear passengers unfastened.

PROTECTION

The iOn has six airbags: driver and passenger airbags, two side airbags and two curtain airbags serving to protect the vehicle’s occupants more effectively in the event of a collision.

CHILD SAFETY

On the rear seat, one or two child seats may be installed safely thanks to two Isofix fittings. The front passenger seat airbag can be deactivated to allow installation of a rear-facing baby seat.

To ensure the safety of occupants even in delicate situations, the iOn is equipped as standard with a comprehensive Anti-lock Braking System, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution EBD and Emergency Brake Assist EBA.
The Anti-lock Braking System ABS allows for steering control in the event of emergency braking. It is assisted by Emergency Brake Assist EBA which boosts braking pressure, and reduces stopping time to a minimum.
Electronic Brakeforce Distribution EBD handles braking wheel by wheel for more efficient braking, particularly on corners. In terms of variable and electric power steering, it is as precise on the open road as it is pleasant during city manoeuvres.
In addition, braking is assisted through a combination of electric engine braking, which allows for a significant recovery of power, and traditional hydraulic braking, providing an overall braking sensation comparable to that of an internal combustion vehicle.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE ASSISTANCE

The driver of the Peugeot iOn benefits from assistance in the event of battery exhaustion (flat-bed towing of the vehicle to your home/workplace or, alternatively, to the closest recharging point within a 50km radius) The number of callouts is stipulated in the contract..

RUNNING COSTS

With a running cost ranging between €1.50 and €2.00 per 100 km, the iOn’s energy bill is less expensive than that of an internal combustion vehicle, irrespective of the recharge mode used. Recharging at night or during “off-peak” times reduces the bill, and optimises the use of production capacities installed by electricity suppliers.

Thanks to the iOn’s high structure, the entire battery assembly has been placed under the floor, between the two axles, contributing to the vehicle’s good dynamic stability.

The battery life has been designed to suit real mobility requirements and uses. Thanks to its Lithium-ion battery and optimised power charging, the battery can last for up to 150 km. During real use, it therefore provides sufficient, suitable range, as 90% of daily trips are under 60 km Source France: BIPE..

With a maximum speed of 130km/h and lively acceleration 30 to 60km/h in 3.5 seconds , the iOn performs comfortably on any type of road. Its maximum power is 47kW, with maximum torque of 180Nm.
