Overview
R8 MY21 GT Fastback 5dr Spts Auto 8sp 1.6T (May) Available in sedan or wagon form, the 508 is the flagship of Peugeot's Australian fleet. Sporting either a turbo-petrol-based 165kW PHEV, or a conventional, punchy 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbo engine producing 165kW/300Nm the 508 drives the front wheels through an eight-speed auto gearbox. A sumptuous competitor for BMW 3 Series, C-Class Mercedes-Benz and Audi A4, the 508 offers a spacious cabin and plenty of French character. It comes standard with autonomous emergency braking, lane-keep assist, blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. Highlighted by Peugeot's latest i-Cockpit, part-leather trim, a massaging driver's seat, sat-nav, head-up display and 10-spaker audio, the 508 comes in high-level GT form only.
