PEUGEOT E-LEGEND CONCEPT AND HERVET MANUFACTURIER

PEUGEOT E-LEGEND CONCEPT AND HERVET MANUFACTURIER - TheArsenale

The Peugeot e-Legend Concept is one of the most admired concept cars of the last decade, a fully electric, retro-futuristic coupé that blends 1960s charm with autonomous-driving technology. Many people search for the Peugeot e-Legend price, but the honest answer is that it has no price: the e-Legend is a design study, not a production car, built to show where Peugeot's design and electric ambitions could go. Unveiled at the 2018 Paris Motor Show, it remains a reference point for how heritage and innovation can meet, and it sits naturally alongside the craft-led work of Hervet Manufacturier.

What is the Peugeot e-Legend Concept?

The e-Legend is a neo-retro coupé that pays homage to the Peugeot 504 Coupé, which celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018. It revives cues such as floating metal-blade bumpers, square double headlights and velvet seats, then wraps them around a thoroughly modern, 100 percent electric platform. As designboom describes it, the e-Legend blends retro styling with autonomous driving, and even its body colour shifts between a reflective champagne grey and a polished bronze depending on the light.

What are the Peugeot e-Legend specs?

Beneath the nostalgic skin, the numbers are firmly future-facing. The e-Legend uses a 100 kWh battery feeding four-wheel drive, with around 340 kW (456 hp) and 800 Nm of torque, enough for 0 to 100 km/h in under 4 seconds and a 220 km/h top speed. WLTP range is roughly 600 km, with 500 km recoverable in about 25 minutes of fast charging. It also features Level 4 autonomous technology, with the steering wheel and pedals retracting when the car drives itself, and four driving modes split between autonomous comfort and connected, manual sportiness. The full technical breakdown is laid out by DrivingElectric.
