2021 Peugeot 308





There have been and still are women running a group or one of its sub-brands, but none in Europe as significant as Peugeot for the newly formed Stellantis Group. Linda Jackson is the name of the new CEO there, and as new as she is with her two months on the job, she is helping to unveil the new Peugeot 308.

You can tell how new it is by comparing it to the
'old' 308 to see.

If it weren't for the luggage compartment of 'only' 385 liters in the plug-in hybrid, one would wonder whether a SW model is needed at all. After all, the passenger cabin has moved back 10 cm. So also averted the attempt to make it one of the ever-popular coupé, or even call it that.


As a result, we are dealing with a longer front end, whose (aluminum) hood now no longer extends to the radiator grille, but is previously very neatly fitted. So the plastic front end has now also conquered the space above the grille, incidentally a very friendly solution for insurance rates.

.

Halogen technology no longer fits in the light units, which are only about 7 cm high, so all models at least come with LED main headlights. Whether, however, the Peugeot tiger face fits the three slanted dashes on each side at the back, you may please decide for yourself.


It's a pity that, together with the famously small steering wheel and the screen above it, they didn't take the chance to place the one in the center as high up as possible as well. It would have been possible without letting it protrude above the dashboard. At least there are the seven buttons underneath, six of which are freely programmable.

For the first time, a video below creates an impression of what a 3D screen has to offer.

The 308 and of course the new Opel Astra now come with the EMP2 combustion platform. It piggybacks the 12.4 kW battery in the rear of the plug-in hybrid, which leads to the already mentioned restrictions in the luggage compartment. That's why the hybrid comes right along in the fall, while we'll have to wait for the pure e-drive.


The complete changeover to LED has already been justified with the GT variant, which will then receive matrix light in addition to the better standard equipment. It will also be available as a plug-in hybrid, probably with a system output of around 220 kW (300 hp). The then also with an all-wheel drive.
