Jun 11, 2020 at 2:16am ET The current-generation Peugeot 308 has been around for approximately seven years, and while most of its rivals have been renewed, the French compact model soldiers on for the 2021MY with minor tweaks. This possibly last update before the generation switch brings a fresh coat of paint called Vertigo Blue and two new alloy wheel designs. Go for the high-end variant and there’s an optional Black Pack bringing an assortment of dark accents. The main attraction of the 2021 Peugeot 308 can be found inside the hood where the analog dials of the instrument cluster have been replaced by an all-digital setup. Measuring 10 inches, the i-Cockpit utilizes the same tech seen in the 208 and 2008 models and is complemented by a capacitive-touch infotainment system with a glossy finish. Waiting For Next Gen... The 308’s model year change is a good reminder the GTi is still around, complete with a turbocharged gasoline engine producing 263 horsepower and 340 Newton-meters (251 pound-feet) of torque. The four-pot is hooked up to a six-speed manual gearbox and enables the hot hatchback to hit 62 mph (100 km/h) from a standstill in six seconds en route to an electronically governed 155 mph (250 km/h). Lesser versions rely on a turbocharged engine with three cylinders and either 110 or 130 horsepower. The former is offered only with a six-speed manual whereas the latter can be had with an eight-speed auto as well. Go for the diesel and you get to pick from 100 or 130 horses sent to the wheels via a six-speed manual or an optional eight-speed auto for the beefier variant. Gallery: 2021 Peugeot 308 Regardless of trim level, all 2021 Peugeot 308s have dual-zone climate control, automatic headlights, rear parking sensors, DAB digital radio, automatic windscreen wipers, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. Even though the car is beginning to show its age in terms of design, it’s loaded with safety tech: adaptive cruise control, 180-degree camera, active lane departure warning, automatic high-beam switch, speed sign recognition, active blind spot, and driver attention alert. We’re hoping this is the last update the current 308 will receive as Peugeot needs to come out with an all-new model to fight the VW Group’s refreshed trio – Golf, Octavia, and Leon. Source: Peugeot It’s been a long time since Peugeot used TV, radio and magazine advertising to crow about the strength of its lion-like models, but those of us who can remember when it did might well see a parallel between its relative commercial tidings of the late 1980s and early 1990s and today. This company is incrementally shifting itself closer towards pseudo-premium brand territory by launching ever more chiselled-looking cars with inviting, materially appealing interiors, powered by modern engines that keep them relevant. In the UK and elsewhere, it has reclaimed much of the market share that it lost to the German brands through the mid-2000s. However, in using compact SUVs and electric offerings to fuel so much of its rise, it has yet to really rejuvenate the spirit that brought us those great-handling hatchbacks and saloons of the 1980s: cars like the 205, 405, 406, 309 and 306. This week, we find out if the company’s all-new mid-sized hatchback, the Peugeot 308, can bring a clearer dynamic flavour of the old Peugeot back. This is the second time that the firm has recycled the 308 model nomenclature for its VW Golf-segment entrant, and it has also recycled and overhauled the old version’s vehicle architecture, while honouring the 308’s relatively diminutive proportions within a class where much larger cars are now more and more common. But even so, this car is no stranger to new technology. It is the first 308 to tout plug-in hybrid powertrains, and will be the first to go all-electric too, in the shape of next year’s e-308. For those who prefer to keep things simple under the bonnet, however, Peugeot is offering both petrol and diesel combustion options – and it’s the more traditional petrol we have opted to test here. Peugeot 308 range at a glance Peugeot’s UK-market line-up for the 308 has combustion-engined models from around £25,000. The price jump from a regular petrol to a plug-in hybrid is a hefty £6500, some or all of which you might be able to recoup through lower costs of ownership. An SW estate costs about £1200 more than a hatchback. Trim levels start with Active Premium, and go up through Allure, Allure Premium, GT and GT Premium. Mid-spec Allure Premium gets you 17in alloy wheels, wireless device charging and smartphone mirroring as standard.

The latest Peugeot 308 will be available with a plug-in hybrid powertrain later in 2022. Available with either 178bhp or 222bhp, each version uses the same petrol engine and electric motor combination and claims up to 37 miles of electric range. Peugeot has also revealed that an all-electric e-308 will join the range in 2023 and promises a range of around 250 miles on a single charge. What are the main rivals to the Peugeot 308? Buyers are spoiled for choice in the compact family hatchback class, so the Peugeot 308 has no shortage or rivals. The toughest of the lot is the Volkswagen Golf, which feels a touch more upmarket, is more composed to drive and has plug-in hybrid options. The Volkswagen shares its architecture and engines with the more spacious and sensible Skoda Octavia and the more stylish and sharper-handling Seat Leon. The new Vauxhall Astra is closely related to the Peugeot but looks more eye-catching, while the agile and engaging Ford Focus is more fun to drive. How much power does the Peugeot 308 have? Peugeot has kept it simple with the Peugeot 308 engine line-up, with the result that both the petrol and diesel have the same power output. The turbocharged three-cylinder petrol and diesel deliver an identical 128bhp, although the latter has more torque, with 221lb ft compared to 170lb ft. The plug-in hybrid units serve-up the most power, with a choice of between 178bhp or 222bhp, the latter capable of completing the 0-62mph sprint in seconds. Unfortunately, there will be no hot 308 GTi version of the current car. What choices of gearbox are there for the Peugeot 308? Surprisingly for a relatively affordable family hatchback the only gearbox option for the Peugeot 308 is an eight-speed automatic. Unlike the old version there’s no manual transmission, even on the entry-level versions. Known as the EAT8, the gearbox is effective enough, but it lacks the speed and smoothness of the best twin-clutch automatics, serving up slightly ponderous gear changes even when trying to drive quickly. Where is the Peugeot 308 built? The current Peugeot 308 only went on sale earlier this year, and so far production is limited to the brand’s factory in Mulhouse, France. However, it’s likely that the car will be built in other plants around the world, as the previous generation machine was built in locations as far flung as Wuhan in China and Gurun in Malaysia. There was even a suggestion that the 308 and closely related Vauxhall Astra could be assembled in the UK. How many generations of Peugeot 308 have there been? Now in its third generation, the Peugeot 308 was one of the first models to benefit from the brand’s decision to stick with the same model number, rather than change it for each all-new version. Previously, Peugeot’s compact family hatch had been known as the 309, which was replaced by the 306 and then the 307. The first 308 arrived in 2007 and was replaced by the second generation machine in 2013.

Subscribe Peugeot 308 First drives It’s the new 308. Peugeot has shifted over million 308s in its 15 years on sale, meaning this new one matters for the company’s bottom line. Fortunately, its design department has (yet again) smashed it out of the park with the third generation, the best looking yet. Peugeot’s aim is to be an ‘inventive high-end generalist’ brand, marketing gobbledigook that disguises a range of cars that are as well-engineered and robust as any of its apparently more esteemed rivals. So talk of the 308 mixing it with the likes of the Audi A3, BMW 1 Series and Mercedes A-Class isn’t too far-fetched, alongside C-segment stalwarts such as the Ford Focus and VW Golf. No - Page continues below It’s available as a five-door hatch or SW semi-estate form. Click these blue words if it’s the latter you’re after. IT LOOKS... STRIKING. The 308 represents further evidence of Peugeot’s concerted push both upmarket and its commitment to delivering something palpably different. Few mainstream car companies have executed a more convincing design about-turn than these guys, and the new 308’s dramatic aesthetic keeps the faith with the quasi-concept car look of the 2008 and 3008 crossovers. The front end positions the bold new Peugeot badge in the middle of an equally punchy grille, the long nose doing most of the visual heavy lifting. The wheelbase has grown by 55mm for more room in the rear compartment, and it sits 20mm lower than the previous model. It’s also impressively slippery with a drag coefficient of and Peugeot has pumped up the colour palette. HOW DOES THE CABIN COMPARE? Plenty of noise has been made about Peugeot’s i-Cockpit interior, complete with compact steering wheel and 10-inch digital instrument cluster. The steering wheel still looks like a TIE fighter from the Star Wars universe and sits unusually (and, for some, uncomfortably) low, but don’t let it be a deal breaker until you’ve spent a good amount of time in the driver’s seat – it quickly feels - Page continues belowElsewhere, the central touchscreen - 10 inches as standard - has been slightly reworked with a row of ‘i-Toggle’ shortcut buttons underneath (from Allure trim upwards), which can be customised to the driver’s liking. Peugeot calls it i-Connect Advanced and it looks really smart, contributing to a cabin that is as good as anything else out there. Head over to the interior tab for full details. WHAT'S BEHIND THE BADGE? The range is admirably streamlined for the UK and starts with the PureTech 130 or the Blue HDi 130 diesel, but the big step forward here is the arrival of two plug-in hybrid powertrains, in 180 (177bhp) or 225 (221bhp) forms. Both of these are powered by a petrol engine augmented by a 81kW (109bhp) electric motor and a lithium-ion battery, and use the e-EAT eight-speed automatic transmission. It’s far from a Peugeot hot hatch of times gone by with a clear focus on refinement and efficiency, but that’s not to say fun can’t be had – the steering is nicely weighted and it has decent body control. Head over to the driving tab for more. Range prices begin at £24k for the PureTech 130 in Active Premium trim, with the hybrids starting from £33k. Full details over on the buying the verdict?“Peugeot has rolled the dice on design, inside and out... but on top of that there’s quality of execution”The 308 lands in a class that is absolutely rammed with talent, endless possibilities and where deals can be done even in chip-limited times. But Peugeot has rolled the dice on design, inside and out, and while this might deter the more conservative elements of the customer base, the rest of us should applaud this refreshingly emboldened approach. On top of that there’s quality of execution, lots of tech, and more than competent dynamics – the hybrid 180, in particular, ticks most of the boxes. Not exactly a 205 GTI successor but more fun than you might imagine. Expert ReviewAll-new Peugeot 308 goes after the VW Golf with a compelling combination of French style, clever tech and plug-in hybrid powerThe Auto Trader expert verdict:Available new from £25,270Mid-size hatchbacks are still a hugely important sector of the market, dominated by big-selling models like the Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus. This new Peugeot 308 goes after them with a confident combination of sharp styling, big-car luxuries and a range of engines including frugal petrols and diesels or full plug-in hybrids capable of covering most commutes or regular journeys on battery power alone. Bigger and more refined than its predecessor, this new 308 is a convincing alternative and backed up by Peugeot’s strong reputation for reliability.

Whether you’ll be better off buying a regular petrol or diesel or instead of a plug-in hybrid will very much depend on your circumstances and the kind of driving you do. The petrol is cheaper to buy while, at this level, diesel looks a bit of a niche choice for those doing big motorway miles. Traditionally that would mean company drivers but, these days, the Benefit In Kind advantages of the plug-in hybrids will likely make these more appealing. As a private owner you may claw back the higher cost of the hybrid versions if you’re able to plug in at home, charge every night and do your regular journeys on electric power alone. But, if not, the more affordable petrol may be the pick. Expert rating: 4/5Reliability of a Peugeot 308“While VW languishes further down reliability tables than you might expect Peugeot consistently ranks at or near the top”Accepted wisdom has it that the Volkswagen Golf is the premium player in this sector and buyers assume German-built cars have greater reliability. In fact the opposite is true and while VW languishes further down reliability tables than you might expect Peugeot consistently ranks at or near the top. Something worth remembering when friends and colleagues trot out tired stereotypes about supposedly flaky French build quality… Safety for a Peugeot 308“Blind spot assistance and rear cross traffic alerts only feature on higher trim levels, while the top spec gets semi-autonomous assisted driving”As a brand-new model the 308 comes packed with the latest safety tech, some of which we welcome but some of which is rather less convincing. Good news first – all 308s come with cruise control you can switch to a speed limiter for motorway roadworks sections, self-correcting steering to keep you in lane, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, rear parking sensors and a host of other features modern drivers expect. Blind spot assistance and rear cross traffic alerts only feature on higher trim levels, while the top spec gets semi-autonomous assisted driving. This is nice in principle and feeling the car maintain its distance to the car in front and steer itself in your hands should in theory take the stress out of long drives. But after it attempted to steer us into a truck in an adjacent lane we quickly turned it off and remain sceptical these systems really are the labour saving innovation they claim to be. Expert rating: 4/5How comfortable is the Peugeot 308“We enjoyed the many and various massage settings – especially the ‘Cats Paw’ one inspired by the lion motif in Peugeot’s brand identity”While the roofline is lower the new 308 is longer overall and in its wheelbase (the important measurement, given it dictates the size of the cabin) than the previous version, which is obvious from the length of the rear doors and room in the back. Those sitting in the middle of the rear bench usually get a raw deal in cars of this size but a grown-up can sit there in reasonable comfort without having to ‘man spread’ too badly. Up front Peugeot’s distinctive low-set steering wheel configuration puts it below the instruments and takes a little getting used to, especially if you’re taller or like to sit lower in the car where it can be a struggle to find a setting that doesn’t block your view of the digital dials. But the seats are comfortable (especially so in the top models, thanks to certification from a respected German ‘healthy backs’ body) and we enjoyed the many and various massage settings – especially the ‘Cats Paw’ one inspired by the lion motif in Peugeot’s brand identity. On the road the 308 adopts a classically French approach, with softer suspension than that typically found on Golfs, Focuses and others with more sporty pretensions. That’s absolutely fine by us, given the realities of most real-world driving situations and, along with the roominess and refinement, makes this a comfortable car to spend time in. Expert rating: 3/5Features of the Peugeot 308“In the modern way everything – heating and ventilation included – is controlled through the central screen and this can take some getting used to”It wasn’t long ago that digital instruments and touch-screens were reserved for higher trim levels only but Peugeot has seized this opportunity to include both as standard on all 308s. Opt for the GT or GT Premium and you get the nifty 3D instrument graphics but, on all models, the displays are both clear to use and stylishly executed. In the modern way everything – heating and ventilation included – is controlled through the central screen and this can take some getting used to when a sideways swipe from the nav to bring up air-con or entertainment controls instead scrolls across the map. As such we appreciated the new ‘i-toggles’ below the screen, which you can configure yourself as ‘hot keys’ to take you straight to your favourite functions. While you can use your phone apps through CarPlay or Android Auto on all models we’d go one up from entry level Active Premium to Allure for these shortcut buttons, the built-in nav and nicer upholstery. Expert rating: 3/5Power for a Peugeot 308“More impressive are the hybrids, which seamlessly switch between petrol, electric and combined power in near-silence”Where some rivals offer confusing combinations and permutations of engines and gearboxes across various trim levels Peugeot thankfully keeps it simple with a standard automatic transmission on all models and straightforward choice of a single petrol or diesel, plus two levels of hybrid powertrain. The 130 horsepower petrol punches above its weight and feels sprightly, but sounds a little gruff in the process. It’s at least better than the diesel in this respect, which never lets you forget which pump it fuels from. The clatter fades at the motorway speeds it’s most suited to, at least. More impressive are the hybrids, which seamlessly switch between petrol, electric and combined power in near-silence, while maintaining enough get-up-and-go to operate on pure battery power for nearly 40 miles on a full charge. The 225 horsepower option available on GT models is a little down on power compared with the Golf GTE, Audi A3 eTFSI and Cupra Leon but still brisk enough while the 180 horsepower alternative is plenty for most drivers and usefully cheaper to buy.

This illustration was made by Jean Francois Hubert/SB-Medien for CarScoops. It is a speculative render that is neither related to nor endorsed by Peugeot. The second-generation 508 is the flagship of Peugeot’s range, and one of the few remaining contestants in the midsize sedan segment. While it doesn’t show, the model debuted almost four years ago at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show which means that Peugeot could be working on a mid-life facelift. The Peugeot 508 is considered one of the most stylish models in the D-Segment, adopting a low-slung five-door fastback coupé-saloon bodystyle. It is also the first production model to introduce the signature tusk-shaped LEDs on the front bumper that were later applied to the whole range. The facelift will likely build upon the successful recipe while adopting fresh design elements from newer models to freshen up its style.

The black accents and the 3D-style graphics make the grille appear larger despite being mostly covered for better aerodynamics. Like the aforementioned SUVs, the 508 will likely get a redesigned bumper with additional faux intakes in the sides, further emphasizing the presence of vertical LEDs. The headlights could also get slightly redesigned LED graphics, merging nicely with the grille. Besides the new face, the 508 will likely remain largely the same, possibly with new options for exterior colors and wheel designs. The rear end could also get a few tweaks on the claw-inspired LED taillight graphics and the rear bumper garnish. Read Also: Here’s What We Know About 2023 Peugeot 208 PSE Electric Hot Hatch Since the current model is also available in estate form, chances are that the facelift will be adopted by the 508 SW. After all, Peugeot showed its dedication to low-slung family haulers with the premiere of the new-generation 308 SW earlier this year. Despite being four years old, the interior of the Peugeot 508 still looks like it comes from the future, thanks to the high-mounted center console, the aluminum-style buttons, the inclined infotainment touchscreen up to 10-inches in diameter, and the digital instrument cluster. However, there are a few updates that could make the dashboard even more attractive, including the addition of the 3D instruments from Peugeot’s latest i-Cockpit, alongside new trim options and more ADAS features as standard. Like in most mid-cycle updates, the EMP2-based Peugeot 508 is expected to get slightly cleaner versions of the same engines. The French company has announced plans of electrifying its whole range by 2025, before going EV-only in Europe by 2030. This means that the updated 508 will be one of the last ICE-powered models by Peugeot. Since electrification becomes more and more popular, the plug-in hybrid variants are expected to be the core of the range. Those are the Hybrid 225 e-EAT8 with a combined output of 222 hp (165 kW / 225 PS) and front-wheel-drive, and the 508 PSE (Peugeot Sport Engineered) performance flagship producing a combined 360 PS (355 HP / 265 kW) with all-wheel-drive. Read: New Peugeot 508 PSE PHEV Launched In Germany, Costs More Than BMW’s M340i xDrive The current generation Peugeot 508 in PSE PHEV form The 508 was introduced with the Puretech gasoline and the BlueHDi diesel engines although later on, it became available with the smaller PureTech and BlueHDi producing 128 hp (96 kW / 130 PS). It is not clear if Peugeot will opt for a simplified ICE range giving more emphasis on electrification and lowering its fleet average emissions in Europe. Besides the European market, the 508 is also available in the Middle East, and in China as the long-wheelbase 508L. Judging from the previous facelifts by Peugeot, the updated 508 could appear as early as next year prior to a 2023 market launch since the French automaker has already announced minor updates for the 2022 model year.
