Fast plug-in estate shootout | 508 Peugeot Sport Engineered v BMW 330e | Autocar

[@leonknapp]

Peugeot is gorgeous, reminds me of the Alfa 159SW.

[@Stevieboy130664]

Great to see the Beemer isn't the automatic choice. The Peugeot looks wonderful and would definitely cause me t consider it if I was in that market. I would have to try the I-cockpit first though.

[@markbrix9385]

Because the BMW is a class above. It's a premium brand and built for a completely different audience

[@francoispermentier7353]

Actually it is.

[@milosone]

I cockpit actually really good....

[@CarToneHK]

The Peugeot is just such a brilliant looking car

[@stefankoles]

Looks amazing

The fluidity and progressive feel of cars is something so terribly underrated these days. By just focusing on the numbers and what people deem to be sporty, many cars have lost what it is just basically a nicely tuned chassis which will not break your back everyday but give you so much control over any form of road surface. You are not driving everyday on track people!

[@Chris.Davies]

The BMW looks foul. Like a genetic throwback to 2008. The Peugeot looks stunning.

[@Supremepikachu]

Bullshit lol, Peugeot looks like crap just like any other try hard french car company.

[@pap_chr5063]

Peugeot 508pse is a realizar premium car. It feels amazing inside, very premium and the materials are great.Although Peugeot is a semi premium brand that makes steps to be premium in the near future. Also this car is by far the most beautiful in the segment

[@georgimihalkov4781]

I just love Autocar's comparison videos...There's never a straight answer in the end.

[@DanLMH]

As the even more left field choice, I'd still take the V60 T8/Polestar Engineered :D

[@MichaelVB87]

Which is exactly what I did :)

[@dezsijanos]

In regards to the specs it seems they just simply messed up their DD and took the F30/F31 330e and not the G20/G21 330e... I would say that’s quite a massive mistake and makes this whole video a bit confusing

[@BonuxCouleur]

I love the "premium brand" tag of BMWs, especially when you know their 3 and 1 series have used Peugeot-Ford-Volvo engines for ages. Jaguar also used Peugeot-Ford engines in their recent past. I am not sure premium means anything when your car is an assembly of parts from the competition.

[@steveberridge4648]

I own a BMW but love that Peugeot - one to buy in 3 years time as I suspect the residuals will be awful like most large, niche French cars

[@atlanticjatt7525]

Why Peugeot is not available in Canada. Such a good looking car and attractive price.

[@johnwhite2143]

Ive never really thought about peugeot cars but this one in video looks absolutely gorgeous what a car 👌👌👍

[@hoagy_ytfc]

The in-car footage in the Beamer is shocking quality.

[@knudar]

Why does the 330e get a smaller battery in England? or have you been looking at the data for the F30 model? ;-)

[@vizeliszabolcs6480]

You are right, 7,6 kwh battery is the F30’s specs. The G20 330e has 12 kwh battery and more eletric range than 18 miles.

[@dezsijanos]

This mistake makes this whole video unreliable and pointless

[@jamiep61]

I enjoyed watching the Video Comparison. The BMW Is my favourite 🤩

[@mrkruger5108]

Peugeot looks way better

[@markbrix9385]

Not at all. The BMW looks premium (what it is)

[@alfamonk]

SW is a sharp-looking thing. Brits will default to the BMW of course but if I had the cash I’d take the 508

[@avaraz6941]

Seeing the comments... Damn, people still thinks german brands are "premium" ? Same amount of plastic in a BMW or a Peugeot these days, while the peugeot has a better price for the options compared to a bmw I'm looking for my next car, and for the same price in second hand, I can either have a 2019 508 with adapt suspensions, 230hp, full options, alcanatara electric massage heated seats, or a 2016 audi a5 with a few options, 170hp max, no digital dials, tiny ugly screen and tissue seats? You guys need to make up your mind about the "premium" myth of german cars, Peugeot is clearly owning it lately

[@carlosgilpinheiro7510]

That's true premium brands generation after generation are using the same rigid plastic in some parts of the interiors. Maybe only the 3series have some advantage in this case but if we go check 1 series they are even worse that 308 last gen. Even the glovebox of the 308 is better finished.

[@carlosgilpinheiro7510]

Why no one touch the door plastics on these premium brands and they have that too? We have been brain washed by press about the real quality of cars.

[@Ziggyziggy1]

I find it annoying that pretty much all car journalists constantly trying to find hard plastic!

[@14Tommere]

Would like to see a drag. I got a 2021 330e xdrive touring that does 0-100 in 5,2. Its quicker than claimed. The xdrive works very well in wet and snow. The adaptiv susp and weight balance makes it a very good car to drive. It also runs perfect without any issues. Can that be said about the Peugeot in 3-5 years? What about rest value and 2nd hand marked. BMW for me.

[@dezsijanos]

They used the data of the F30/F31 and not the G20/G21. I guess you have a G21

[@14Tommere]

@@dezsijanos yes there are something strange about this video. When they talk in the beginning they say 249 bhp, later the screen says 289. The car they review got 289 or 292. Also the 0-100 they are talkin about is wrong. So it seams they are mixing data from the new and old 330e. The new got a boost function that the old doesent. So I think a drag between these two cars would be close. When it comes to these hybrid cars you cannot always look at the paper because they are so different set up by the factory and BMW is always claiming less than the car gives.

[@gregrobins5615]

Peugeot for me, BMW looks tired compared with the Pug. Given that the Peugeot still drives great too seals the deal.

[@14Tommere]

@@gregrobins5615 thats nice. The Peugeot looks and drives great. Just dont make the choice based on this video because they are mixing data from the old 330e which is a huge error. The old 330 got a 7,6 kw battery but the new got a 12 kw battery that gives it longer range and better performance. The BMW also got a way better second hand marked. Mine 330e got adaptive susp, stock performance tyres (not run flat) and full Msport and the handling is awesome. You cant feel the xtra weight at all. So this video just gives the half picture. But yes, just based on the looks I can understand Peugeot fans. It looks really good this 508!

[@gregrobins5615]

@@14Tommere Thanks for the information Peter, I am waiting to see if the 508 gets to Oz and how much ?

[@bathurst555]

[@azamchaudhri]

For God sake, how much longer are car journalists going to go on about plastics not up to scratch. And that tap on the door card to prove it is so annoying. They all do that stupid tap. I've sat in the 508 and didn't go around thinking it was not a 54k car. Maybe I should have tapped the plastics more.

[@TheSoccerseeker]

handsome looking cars..i wish these were sold here in India

[@richardwilton722]

A lot of comments here about the high price of the Peugeot. Yet you can spend over £70k on a 3 series. lol.

[@richardwilton722]

Ah, but you say, on a £70k M3, BMW remove lots of cheap bits and put more expensive ones on. What do you think Peugeot have done with this 508?

[@joebloggs4191]

I've seen this Peugeot in the flesh and it looks great but 54K for a Peugeot? no way can you compare it to a BMW Mercedes or Audi, Peugeots just aren't in the same class. Also this Peugeot is from the sport division whereas the BMW is not, for that you need the M340i Touring. I don't see many people cross shopping these two brands.

@@alfamonk absolutely, a long way from the ultimate driving machine days

[@joebloggs4191]

@@alfamonk Sure BMW sells a lot of cars these days but selling a large numbers cars doesn't make the brand any less premium or prestigious! Fact is that BMW alongside Mercedes Audi who all incidentally sell a similar number of cars are premium prestige brands as is Lexus and perhaps to a lesser extent Volvo, whereas Peugeot Vauxhall / Opel Ford Citroen Toyota Honda Kia Hyundai etc. are not. There is no myth surrounding premium the fact is BMW is premium!

@@joebloggs4191 there’s no fact about it, it’s a marketing construct. Is ‘premium’ pricing? Is it soft-touch plastics? Is it reliability? BMW JD power rating is piss-poor, so is premium having a car with a nice badge that breaks down?

[@joebloggs4191]

@@stefanodeanjou8732 In my experience Peugeots break just as much as the Germans, actually in my experience of owning BMWs for over 25 years is that they have been pretty reliable! And there is no perception of premium they are premium in their build quality way more so than Peugeots. Bentleys Aston Martin Ferraris etc, none are truly reliable yet are you going to go around saying they aren't premium / prestige? But hey if reliability is the most important criteria to you when shopping around for a car best to head straight to your Toyota / Lexus Honda or Mazda dealership. In your words everything else is junk!

@@joebloggs4191 actually I own a Peugeot have owned 6 drive Toyotas, Mitsubishis' ,Isuzus for work.
