2019 Peugeot 508 UK Review! New Motoring

Finally, the new Peugeot 508 is here in the UK for 2019! This time it's the 508 BlueHDi 130 Allure, with a six-speed manual gearbox. So what's it like without the eight-speed automatic?

This is the most stunning car in the class.

[@timjenkins8538]

Peugeot are back!! Looks far more interesting than any VAG equivalent

[@lopezben3023]

. .Where it was?

[@g00dfeeling]

508 is a proper 🦁. Well done Peugeot!

[@newmotoring]

Love it! Absolutely. Bravo Peugeot 👏

[@livc444111]

Peugeot went through a terrible phase between 2000 and 2012, glad to see things are definitely on the up, love this new 508

[@newmotoring]

We can refer to it kindly as a 'slight dip'! Definitely on the up. Hopefully they can keep it going!

[@vince207]

Well, a terrible phase for uk public maybe, but they still did good cars ... 307 : car of the year, 207 : a bit heavy but good platform and amazing durability, 407 : amazing ride, 308 I : amazing car with the tops petrol engine ...

[@sirreaper1238]

All the Peugeots I've owned were from this period and I prefer them over the new ones, so only your opinion mate.

[@livc444111]

Sir Reaper you cannot honestly say that 107,307,407 and 3008 were decent products!! Personal opinion is that Peugeot had a great reputation which disappeared not long after the 206 came out. Right until then then made cars which looked good, handled great and the diesel engines were the best. I feel Peugeot could easily have become the French Audi back then but went down the wrong path releasing below-par products. There's a reason the company was on the verge of going bust in 2012, the product range was rubbish.

[@ps61762]

All Peugeots are better than Hitler's cars.

[@AndrewKNI]

Great looking car inside and out. :-)

[@newmotoring]

Agreed! Something different to the norm.

[@Andy-oe8bi]

Great review

[@Ambienfinity]

I love this car. Thank God somebody is making good looking saloons. Great review Seann.

[@newmotoring]

Thank you! As always. And you're right, it's SO good looking. Dear Peugeot: make a GTI.

[@frenchmax100]

GTI would be a bit of a silly name for this saloon (even though there was a 505 GTI) but it'd be more likely called 508 R

[@Ambienfinity]

@@frenchmax100 However they name it, I agree with Seann - I think this would make a tremendous hot saloon. Personally, I'd go for the biggest, quietest configuration, but it's a stylish vehicle. Love it.

[@kofib3]

@@frenchmax100 or maybe resurrect the Mi 16 name that was used on the 405? Then again R sounds more simpler and a bit special..

[@frenchmax100]

@@kofib3 Well they almost put out a 308 RHybrid with that technology so I'd go for R since RHybrid is a bit of a mouthful. I'd love to see a 508 T16 but one can only dream. 😌

[@mancuinist]

You're one of the very few that had the opportunity to test drive this car in UK.BTW,very good review,and also you forgot to mention that this version tested was an entry level one (Active if i'm right) . I can't wait to test drive it myself. Keep up the good work buddy.

[@GeneHunt406]

I think it's the Allure (it has leather seats)

[@johns14a]

Nice review. Looking forward to the hybrid estate coming out.

[@rc666]

manual is for the real driver, like you. In control heel toe action, what a man.

[@jacobsbuhrer9040]

Magnifique!!!

[@neilhollands4863]

Excellent review young man. It really is a decent looking car. I personally though think the auto would suit the nature of the car better than the manual will.

[@unions100]

Amazing looking car all round I just hope it’s as great as it looks

[@jjlp215]

Thanks for a great review. I have some questions-. How are the noise level in the cabin at 70 mph and is 130BHP enough in such a "big" car?

[@loganjones1672]

Great video guys, thanks for the content.

[@newmotoring]

Thanks Logan, really appreciate it. Keep watching 😊

[@zontarr8812]

Looks more than great in and out , I don’t mind the 1.6 turbo petrol at 225 cp is really good. The interior though is a new age and really interesting, the only E Classe is a bit more refined but this is for more younger people.

[@S_Mau16]

elle est magnifique

[@Grant0610]

Peugeot builds a good looking car shocker! 😁

[@alladin1314]

Pillar-less doors is actually frame less windows. The car has all 3 pillars - A-B-C and doors are mounted in a classic way - front doors to A pillar and back doors to B-pillar. Just saying.

[@jamiep61]

The New Peugeot a great looking Car and I recommend It to Company Car Drivers. The Peugeot 3008 SUV which also features the Small Steering Is one the most popular SUVs on the road. The next big launch for the brand Is the 208 which will get Its Premiere at the 2019 Genera Motor Show

[@stadia8k732]

Whats the full spec name of these special made tyres for 508 so i can google

[@Radio4ManLeics]

That market segment wants a comfortable, stylish, well-equipped and pleasant to drive car with an automatic gearbox. Deal with it dude! If I want a pissy 1.5L manual I'll buy a fekkin Vauxhall. Welcome back Peugeot. The most desirable and stylish Peugeot cars since the days of the lovely 504 saloon and delightful 304 Cabriolet.

[@gpsmodul6660]

Der neue 508 sieht Bombe aus 👍 ich liebe ihn und würde ihn jeden Deutschen Wagen vorziehen 💪

[@03Deltaintegrale]

Finally a pug saloon as good looking as the 406.

[@godkingmaximus2710]

I wish Peugeot can ditch the outdated 1.6 turbo from the mini

[@thomasstevie]

Great review! Did you drive through Hurst in Berkshire by any chance?

[@newmotoring]

Thanks Thomas! And yes, how did you spot that?! 👏 We're based in Wokingham, so if you look closely at some of our footage you'll spot the roads around Hurst, Binfield, Twyford etc. If you see us at the side of the road, give us a wave!

[@thomasstevie]

@@newmotoring Ahhh cool! I grew up in Hurst and my parents still live there so I know it really well. I'll keep a look out! Carry on with the great reviews

[@majim7140]

Why is the video tone warm

[@funkymonkey1198]

I thought it was surprisingly noisy..then he said it is a 1.5 diesel. Will stick to the hybrid

[@Thomas-wm8fu]

Nice car but needs a more powerful bigger engine with around 300 bhp

[@afdzalreza3508]

How is it compared to 3 series?

[@funkymonkey1198]

Good question. But it is better looking, bigger, and will be less common in the UK. Bmw 3 series in the uk is now what mondeo used to bw in the 90s. Too common

[@raymondvaughan6262]

Beautiful looking car inside and out right up to date peugeot got this one right real head turner 👍

[@michaelopere5424]

Mercedes,BMW,and,Audi would hate to say touche to Peugeot.

[@matthieuaoun3555]

A shame that you can’t get 300hp/awd of most French cars and particularly this one Just look at the 308 gti, it is so gorgeous The 508 gti could be epic but thanks to ue ecology laws, it won’t

[@jakubchallupa6676]

Matthieu Aoun yy that is really sad, that they didnt make 3.0 litr for this version or some boosted version, when all other brands have 3.0l .. or 2.0 with higher hp.. i dont really want to get bet up on highway by wo. pass/ sk oct, sup and others,, to sad no awd , hope the version for 508 gti and rhx will come boosted

[@user-pt3if4qo8o]

方向盘像棉花做的 车体颜色不错

[@vince207]

"Don't ignore them because of the badge" : well, in france that's what we do with ford and opels 😂😂😂

[@gpsmodul6660]

Mimimimi

[@melcanuck5951]

Nice to have some competition to the German brands... just hope this Peugeot is not bottom of the reliability charts.... (not that the Germans are much better either, but still better)

[@simon1430]

Peugeot is gonna make me $50000 more in debt 😖

[@dado380]

Mercedes colud learn a thing or two from 3008 and 508 design, every new mercedes looks really horrible.

[@silentrefusal9911]

Goes on talking for 10:19 minutes in a so called "review" and can't spare 1 minute to talk about how the rear seat and boot space is??? And I mentioned that in one of your previous reviews too and expected you would work on it this time.

[@TheAllMightyGodofCod]

This music is so annoying I gave up on the video before the end of the first minute

[@proberts1107]

Should be looking at the car more...not your side profile...and blipping the engine on down change...Jeez...wtf are you doing reviewing cars ? Beautiful car ruined by boy racer type 🙄
