Inspired by one of Peugeot's many futuristic concept cars, there are three trim levels available: the Allure, Allure Premium, and the GT. We will break down each of these just below. In terms of engines, you can choose from a 1.2L petrol version or two plug in Hybrid engines. The Hybrids come as either a 180hp or 225hp variant, offering 211-270 miles to the gallon and up to 41 miles of electric motor range.
A pure electric Peugeot e-408 will arrive in 2024, but until then, you can enjoy an 8-year 100,000-mile warranty as standard on all models. Additionally, the 8-speed automatic transmission offers superior smoothness as you push the 408 to a 0-60 acceleration in around 8 seconds.
The new Peugeot 408 comfortably achieves a slick and sporty exterior with its low roofline while maintaining plenty of headspace for passengers and driver. The rear seats are given plenty of leg room too, with two USB ports located nearby so that all passengers can connect and recharge. The front seats also gain two USB charging ports in the centre too. Ambient lighting controlled by the driver display further accentuates the feel of the cabin that you are aiming for.
The design and materials of the Peugeot 408 interior are one of the features that will bring comfort and luxury to any journey. The front seating is precisely designed to be eye catching and ergonomic. Embossed with fractal patterns and an Isabella leather effect trim along the fabric, these seats provide excellent lumbar support to make any drive polished and focused.
Interior highlights include:
The materials and design give the Peugeot 408 interior a premium feel while maintaining everyday practicality for families and commuters.
The Peugeot 408 range gives drivers a choice depending on performance and efficiency priorities.
All versions are paired with smooth automatic transmission technology and are designed to provide strong everyday usability with low running costs.
The Allure is the base specification, which costs £31,050 to start with the 1.2L petrol engine. If you wish to use the 180hp hybrid engine on the base specification it will be marked at just under £39,000. There’s an abundance of incredible features on the Allure which goes beyond the Peugeot 408 price. Some of these features which are of interest are:
Moving to the Allure Premium, you gain all the base model features and more. Most notably, this trim level gives you the option to upgrade the 180hp hybrid engine to a 225hp one instead.

At the top of the range of the new Peugeot 408 line, you will find the GT trim level. At £34,650 for the 180hp hybrid or £44,700 for the 225hp hybrid, you are offered the most luxury Peugeot has to offer. This includes features such as:
