Peugeot is increasing its efforts in the market for electric vehicles (EVs). According to the French automaker, all new Peugeot electric vehicles will now come with a complimentary 10-year subscription to two useful connected services: Remote E-Controls and e-ROUTES.
By addressing important issues like range anxiety, charging convenience, and general ease of ownership, this action seeks to increase the appeal of Peugeot EVs to consumers.
What Are Peugeot’s New Connected Services?
1. e-ROUTES: Smart Navigation for Electric Cars
Peugeot’s new offering, e-ROUTES, which is powered by Free2move Charge, is its centerpiece. Specifically made for electric Peugeot models, this smart navigation system replaces conventional “guesswork” range estimates with precise, real-time data.

How it works:
- e-ROUTES calculates the most efficient route based on factors such as your battery level, available charging stations, real-time traffic, and total distance.
- It learns from your driving style, adjusting energy consumption predictions dynamically.
- You can create custom vehicle profiles (e.g., for towing or carrying extra load) for more precise range estimates.
- The updated interface provides clearer map visuals and live traffic updates, enhancing user experience.
This system ensures Peugeot drivers can plan trips with confidence, avoiding the anxiety of unexpected range drops during long journeys.
2. Remote E-Controls: Manage Charging and Comfort with Ease
Remote E-Controls, accessible via the MyPEUGEOT app, is the package’s second feature. This service gives drivers complete remote control over their vehicle and prioritizes efficiency, comfort, and convenience.
Key features:
- Start, stop, or schedule charging sessions directly from your smartphone.
- Set charging limits (e.g., 80%) to protect battery health.
- Precondition the cabin to 21°C before you even enter — ideal for cold mornings or hot afternoons.
- When plugged in, preconditioning uses grid power instead of the battery, preserving range.
Owners of the Peugeot e-3008 and Peugeot e-5008 also enjoy an exclusive remote battery pre-heating feature, improving charging efficiency in colder weather.
What’s the Catch?
There isn’t one, which is surprising. The Peugeot Connect ONE Pack, which comes with all new Peugeot electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles bought after July 1, 2025, includes both e-ROUTES and Remote E-Controls.
For the first ten years, there are no extra subscription costs, which is a unique and appreciated feature in the subscription-heavy automotive industry of today.
Why This Matters for Peugeot Owners
Peugeot’s dedication to enhancing the EV ownership experience is demonstrated by this initiative. The brand is directly addressing common EV concerns by incorporating remote vehicle control and smart route planning.
Naturally, performance and dependability will be key factors in actual success. Peugeot may establish a new benchmark for connected EV services in the general market if the app functions reliably and the navigation is seamless.
Peugeot is improving the usability and future readiness of its electric lineup by launching free connected services. In addition to improving convenience, features like e-ROUTES and Remote E-Controls increase consumer confidence in the brand’s EV technology.
These changes could mean the difference between a hesitant and a confident purchase for anyone thinking about buying an electric Peugeot.
