Sporty and Elegant The New Peugeot 508
Design
With its low, dynamic shape, finely detailed grille (a stunning checkered grille comes with the higher spec vehicles) and steely muscular style, the new Peugeot 508 is a really good looking car. It is shorter than the old model, by 8cm, and lower too. It comes with frameless doors, adding to the overall sporty look, which allow a lower roof without comprimising the size of the hole through which you’re climbing to get into the car. If you get the sporty GT line, the look will be completed with LED headlights and rear trim.
Interior
The Peugeot 508 is as stylish inside as it is out! Experience the Peugeot i-Cockpit with its agile driving position with compact steering wheel, configurable head-up digital panel and 8″ (10″ on higher specs) HD touch-screen (all with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto). Up front you will find big and plush seats with plenty of room, however head space is limited in the rear seats due to the sloping roof. There is plenty of storage compartments in the car, and a pull down armrest with cup holders in the middle of the rear seats. In terms of storage, the 487 litre boot is a decent size with extra wide tailgate opening for practicality.
Technology
The 508 comes with a host of advanced driver assist solutions to help ensure your safety as well as the safety of your passengers and other road users. This includes an infa-red camera at the front of the car which puts Night Vision technology at your disposal, making it easier to spot pedestrians or animals in the road at night. In terms of connectivity, the touch-screen is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and can come with a wireless charging pad and up to four USB ports.
Engines
There is one petrol and two diesel engines available. The petrol engine is a 1.6-litre with 180bhp and the two diesel engines are a 1.5-litre with 130bhp and a 2.0-litre with 160bhp. Nearly all engines come with an automatic 8-speed gearbox.
