The i-Cockpit® was first introduced in 2010 in the conceptual Peugeot SR1 and goes into production two years later with the first generation of the Peugeot 208 in 2012. Today, it is not only a symbol of the Brand, but also a An important part of their DNA, with more than 5 million satisfied customers worldwide.
The Peugeot’s cab architecture allows information to be in the driver’s field of vision without having to take his eyes off the road.
In addition to the quality and precision of the Peugeot chassis, the i-Cockpit® contributes to the brand’s driving pleasure.
BORN OF THE CONCEPT
The Peugeot i-Cockpit® was first introduced in 2010 on the Peugeot SR1. With SR1, a new era in Peugeot design begins, with a new management team and the appointment of Gilles Vidal as director of brand design. From now on, all the brand’s concept cars are equipped with i-Cockpit®, which is also reflected in the design of production cars. EXALT also inspires the dashboard of the new 508. In the new 208, the i-Cockpit® architecture is directly inspired by the conceptual FRACTAL. The 3D panel comes from QUARTZ.
MAIN COMPONENTS
Since its introduction in the first generation of the Peugeot 208, the i-Cockpit® has continued to evolve, retaining its main components: compact steering wheel for optimal driving feel and better handling. Featuring high-resolution HD dash and futuristic graphics, a large HD touchscreen in driver’s view and one-hand distance piano keys (or switches) that provide direct, permanent access to key functions.
i-Cockpit® stimulates all the senses for better ergonomics and driving comfort. Eyes: The information falls into the driver’s sight and is placed in his field of vision so that he does not have to take his eyes off the road. Hands: Materials are pleasant to the touch, headroom is minimal, sensory and physical buttons are intelligently positioned. With the EAT8, the Shift and Park by Wire power command is intuitive and ergonomic. The steering wheel shift fins allow for mechanical shifting without losing automatic mode. Body: The body forms a cabin that surrounds passengers. The seats are extremely comfortable and stable.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
To design the Peugeot i-cockpit®, ergonomics, visibility and architecture must be taken into account, ensuring comfort and maximum visibility for all body types. The brand’s engineers and designers are powered by anthropometric data globally.
The height of the driver is not decisive. It is important to note the relationship between the chest and the legs. For example, some people have a chest longer than their legs. For others, the opposite is true … If a man’s average height is 1.76 m, his torso height ranges from 87 to 98 cm! This has a direct effect on the positioning of your vision. Anthropometric data allows the range of seat or steering wheel adjustment to be calculated to improve the feeling of a cocoon and optimize ergonomics on board, regardless of driver size. As you can see, designing an i-Cockpit requires deep morphological knowledge.
CURRENT BID
Today, most Peugeot passenger vehicles are equipped with iCockpit®: 208 and 2008/308 and 308 SW / RIFTER / 3008 and 5008/508 and 508 SW.
I-Cockpit® 3D Touch Focus
Introduced in the new Model 208 and developed in conjunction with Visteon Bulgaria, Peugeot i-Cockpit® 3D is a true innovation and world premiere in the segment. Depending on the equipment level, the information in the i-Cockpit® 3D toolbar can be read on two levels. The information is projected onto the upper digital pad as a hologram. The data is dynamic, displayed closer to or further from the driver’s eyes, depending on its meaning or urgency, increasing the response time by approximately half a second. This certainly makes driving more efficient and safer. In the center of the dash is a 10-inch touchscreen (depending on equipment level). It can be controlled both with direct access to the piano keys and through the voice control system.
