New Peugeot Boxer Offers More Comfort And Efficiency

09 September 2024

The introduction of the new EAT8 eight-speed automatic transmission on the new PEUGEOT BOXER, alongside the six-speed manual gearbox, is part of PEUGEOT's approach to meeting the evolving needs of all its customers. The EAT8 automatic transmission offers enhanced comfort, an easier driving experience, as well as reduced driver fatigue, and therefore increased safety.

These are important advantages for business users who spend long hours behind the wheel in urban conditions or longer journeys, not to mention for private customers who want to enjoy their motorhomes for long trips or leisure.

Alongside the manual and automatic transmission, the new PEUGEOT E-BOXER offers a new all-electric powertrain with 270hp (205kW) and 410Nm of torque, offering optimal driving performance, paired with a 110kWh battery allowing it to reach a remarkable range of up to 263 miles (WLTP combined cycle).

The new EAT8 automatic transmission is available on the new BOXER equipped with the 2.2 BlueHDi 140 and 180 engines. This powertrain, renowned for its durability, benefits from both Light Duty (Euro 6E) and Heavy Duty (Euro VIE) homologation, with the Heavy Duty designed to allow for heavier conversions.

It is distinguished by its new design of clutch which optimises the passage of the eight gears thanks to efficient management of the engine torque, which can reach 450Nm with the BlueHDi 180 engine. That is 80Nm more than the previous manual transmission, achieving best-in-class torque within the segment. Another innovation of the EAT8 automatic transmission is a hydraulic accumulator, which makes it possible to leverage the most from the engine's power by reducing the gearbox response time and promoting the smoother operation of the Start & Stop system.

Finally, the BOXER’s load capacity has increased significantly, for motorhomes specifically, now achieving up to five tonnes of gross vehicle weight.With the new EAT8 automatic gearbox, as with the manual gearbox, the new PEUGEOT BOXER is available in a wide range of configurations to meet the needs of all professionals. Based on two wheelbases (3.45 m and 4.04 m), the panel vans are available in two lengths (L2 and L4) for a total of four bodies offering from 13-17m3.

The BOXER with a 4.04m wheelbase is also available as a single cab L3 or L4 chassis, and a double cab L3 or L4 chassis.The new PEUGEOT BOXER benefits from exterior styling changes that reinforce its robust and upmarket design, while optimising its aerodynamic efficiency with the front bumper, grille and mirrors boasting a new design.The new PEUGEOT BOXER has also received the widest range of comfort and safety equipment in its segment with an electric parking brake, keyless entry and start, 10-inch central touchscreen, wireless smartphone charging, driver fatigue alert, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection and more.
