Introducing the Peugeot 308
The ultimate all-rounder is here. Meet the Peugeot 308: compact. Modern. Versatile. Striking visuals meet dependable specs in this all-new 308 series.
The Peugeot 308 is one of the best family hatchbacks we’ve seen in a long time. It effortlessly blends smooth capability with broad practicality to offer a truly all-in-one driving experience - perfect for everything from everyday commuting to long-distance trips.
Don’t miss the 308's hybrid and all-electric cousins. The choice is yours. But even the conventional petrol and diesel variants have something new and exciting to offer. Read on to learn more.
Design and Practicality
You’ll spot the Peugeot 308 a mile away, even despite its modest size. Every inch of its 4,367mm catches the eye. Bold body. Illuminated front face. Ergonomic design. And coming in six beautiful colours
There’s plenty to love about the interior, too. Despite its unobtrusive size, the cabin feels roomy enough for the whole family. The “i‑Cockpit” layout gives the 308 a more up‑market and modern feel compared with older generation Peugeots: a compact steering wheel, a digital instrument cluster positioned “over” the wheel rather than through it, and a central touchscreen.
This is all topped off by sleek dashboard textures and extremely comfortable seats. The Peugeot 308 offers a compact design that’s premium and savvy - without being flashy. Add to that the 412-litre capacity boot and you have a functional hatchback with space both for passengers and luggage.
Technology and Safety
The Peugeot 308 is a family car. Peugeot have gone for a limited range of ultra-dependable tech and safety specs with that in mind - rather than a dazzling array of unnecessary extras. That said, all the essentials are there - and then some.
The 308 uses the brand’s Peugeot -Cockpit layout complete with a 10‑inch HD touchscreen for the central infotainment. This comes, of course, with seamless smartphone integration that makes using apps completely effortless (as you’d expect from any modern hatchback).
You can make your life even easier with responsive voice control and navigation. This also boosts the safety of the 308.
Talking of safety, let’s see how the 308 stacks up. The 308 comes with a broad set of safety and driver‑assist systems as standard. That includes automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot detection, adaptive cruise control, traffic-sign recognition, and extra parking aids. You can drive easy knowing you and your passengers are in safe hands with the 308.
Economy and Performance
The unfussy design of the 308 offers one huge advantage. It’s nimble. The driving experience feels remarkably light and efficient and is super comfortable over all distance types.
All this is powered by a modest 1.2‑litre three‑cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with a 143bhp power output. That is, on the hybrid model, which also offers up to 56.5mpg combined fuel consumption and 50% electric driving time.
Don’t forget, though, that the 308 also comes in plug-in hybrid and all-electric variants. The “PHEV 195” version combines a 1.6‑litre turbo‑petrol engine with an electric motor and battery for added fuel efficiency, and the fully electric has a decent 279-mile range.
There are multiple standard petrol and diesel models available in some areas. The 1.5‑litre diesel engine is a standout for those wanting the economy of diesel.
Overall, it's a spectacular driver. Running costs are relatively low for its class, and the engine, in all variants, punches above its weight.
Test Drive the Peugeot 308
Peugeot are firmly establishing themselves as a manufacturer to beat where car design is concerned, something that reflects in the 308.
A versatile driving experience. A gorgeous design. Reliable, safety-conscious specs. Anyone looking for a family-friendly hatchback with a modern twist will find the 308 the perfect model.
To experience the 308 for yourself, we recommend booking a test drive through your nearest Evans Halshaw Peugeot retailer.
