Peugeot 508 facelift: full details as well as costs

The Ford Mondeo-rivalling Peugeot 508 has been updated to include new technology, a fresh style as well as a 2.0-litre 148bhp engine that emits just 105g/km. The diesel-electric HYbrid4 design is back, too, boasting 85.6mpg as well as 85g/km – both best-in-class figures.
The new style of the 508 is influenced by a few of the most recent ideas from Peugeot, like the Exalt, which featured at the Beijing motor show earlier in 2014. That indicates a narrower grille, stretched ideal across the front end, where it satisfies a set of a lot more compact headlights. There’s a a lot more horizontal bonnet on all designs as well as a set of new taillights for the saloon.

As with the present Peugeot 508 variety there’s a Saloon, an SW estate version as well as a a lot more tough looking estate called 508 RXH. This last version is only offered with the HYbrid4 powertrain.
The interior has been simplified to ensure that lots of of the functions are now managed with a centrally mounted seven-inch touchscreen. new choices like blind area sensors as well as a reversing cam are available, as are a variety of Peugeot link apps supplying information on things like complimentary auto parking spaces, fuel costs as well as traffic.
Underneath the bonnet, the huge news is the introduction of the 150bhp 2.0-litre BlueHDi diesel, which boasts emissions of 105g/km. That’s 10g/km less than the old 1.6-litre e-HDi engine, which only had 112bhp. It’s still not rather the cleanest, though, with the Mazda 6 boasting a 148bhp 2.2-litre diesel with emissions of 104g/km.
