Peugeot 508 PHEV Introducing the Peugeot 508 PHEV Starting from £34,160

THE PEUGEOT 508 PHEV

LOCATED IN WOKINGHAM & HIGH WYCOMBE

The Peugeot 508 plug-in hybrid (PHEV) harnesses the power of a 1.6-litre 178bhp petrol engine and a 108bhp 80kW electric motor. This combination allows the vehicle to return as much as 235mpg, while producing CO2 emissions as low as 29g/km. The benefits this offers businesses and households alike are clear. Factor in the car’s stunning good looks, classy cabin and sheer drive ability, and the Peugeot 508 PHEV reveals itself to be a most compelling automotive package.

DESIGN

The muscular profile of the 508 PHEV is something to behold. It catches the light in interesting ways, making it stand out with sheer elegance. And yet, the interior is arguably even better, with first-rate materials, technologies and a bespoke design.

DRIVE

The plug-in hybrid powertrain is a peach. You can run in hybrid or full EV mode, with average fuel savings of 40% versus the equivalent petrol model. Charging the battery takes less than 2-hours using a standard AC 7.4Kw wall box.

PRACTICALITY

The 508 PHEV is a fastback which means that while it’s shaped like a saloon, the rear tailgate opens upwards with the window. This makes a massive difference to the boot, allowing you to load up and make full use of the 487-litre load volume.

LIVING WITH IT

The 508 PHEV boasts advanced driving aids like Night Vision, Park Assist, adaptive cruise control and Park Drive Assist Plus. Inside, there’s a stunning 12.3” digital instrument panel and 10” touchscreen, together with premium materials galore.

Protects perfectly

The Peugeot 508 PHEV isn’t just stylish, affordable to run and well-equipped, it’s extremely safe. For one thing, it has passed Euro NCAP’s stringent crash-test examinations, garnering a maximum five-star rating in the process. In addition to airbags, ISOFIX child-seat fixtures, electrically operated rear door and window locks, a slew of driver aids are fitted as standard. For instance, whenever maximum braking pressure is applied, the car’s hazard lights are immediately activated, providing an effective warning to trailing vehicles.

Sophisticated and sensible With its assertive stance and sleek styling, this super-efficient saloon is guaranteed to grace any driveway. The vehicle is fitted with eye-catching minimum-size 17-inch light alloy wheels too. And a five-door body makes it easy for rear-row travellers to get in and out, while providing straightforward access to the car’s maximum-capacity 1,537-litre boot.
Exciting tech The 508’s 11.8kWh battery can be charged by using a standard mains socket – or by visiting one of several thousand charging locations around the UK. The quickest option is supplied by an optional 7kW board charger, which delivers a fully replenished battery in less than two hours. In electric-only mode, this eco-friendly vehicle is capable of a 39-mile range. The car comes loaded with numerous infotainment features, including eight loudspeakers, DAB radio, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, an eight-inch touchscreen and wide-ranging satellite navigation functionality.
