best design of among all the competitors without a doubt

[@erdbeerschosch2839]

I saw one in real life last week for the first time and i was so stunned by the looks that i almost drove off the road. This car should be illegal because it looks so awesome!

[@bensmithkent22]

⁠im considering one now as it happens. Shame about the engine but given last years ridiculous insurance hike I need to downsize and economise. I prefer this to the new astra. But that has heated seats and a heated wheel in gs line which is allure trim level. GT rivals the astra ultimate. I think allure premium is the sweet spot the 17s on this look bigger and fill the arches more than the astra on 17s

The green is brilliant, the styling is brilliant and the badge…. It’s like a Thundercat which makes it look awesome.

He also calls it way better than the Golf's system? And calls the Golf system worse than the Leon's? What? The Golf's system has way better response than that Peugeot's, is just as configurable and has a way less confusing layout than Both the 308 and the Leon. He really hates the Golf doesn't he.

[@livc444111]

So many on here have no clue when talking about the asking price.. Have you seen how much cars cost? This isn't just a Peugeot thing

[@Sto79Be]

Just because other cars now cost astronomical amounts doesn’t mean the Peugeot asking price isn’t to be gawped at either! At least Peugeot are offering cheaper models (sadly ICE only) though, whereas the likes of the cheapest Renault Megane has jumped from £18k pre-2021 to now over £29k! I can’t imagine previous Renault customers looking to trade up to the newer model are going to be happy at an £11k minimum premium over their last Renault purchase, it’s no wonder the used market is seeing massive demand!

[@Lot76CARS]

Peugeot styling is finally getting closer to the icons of 205, 306, 405/406, after some diabolical ones... 307/407 I’m looking at you. However, at almost 40k there’s a lot of premium competition.

It's simple: reliability. A chip that's an integral part of a product meant to be used to 15 years at least will have to be tried and tested. Older chips are also much easier to mass-produce and cheaper to buy.

[@thanasisconstantinou7442]

I always love your car reviews because they are very informative and comprehensive. I also liked this review, although comparing seat Leon to Peugeot 308 is rather inappropriate, given the superiority of the latter in terms of build and ride quality and their chaotic difference in the overall refinement and fineness. In my opinion, Peugeot 308 is by far the best car in the c-segment now.

[@vs6300]

Absolutely.

[@bensmithkent22]

Im sure there is not much difference the leons are everywhere and a vag product. This hasnt suddenly achieved golf 7 or a3 levels of solidity and tactility even if they were the generation before. Its good looking for sure and uses a mixture of fabrics to create an effect of perceived quality which masks some cheapness (as many brands do) they are all much of a muchness tbh even the koreans. Guy at works got one brand new the 3008, had a poke about as I love to do with the interiors and was stunned how shocking the rear legroom is. Hard topped rear doors too. Id wager its not got some amazing magical levels of refinement vs a leon or golf either or even a focus.

[@danielrussell446]

Cannot agree more

[@danielrussell446]

It’s a work of art I sat in one yesterday and was blown away I have a golf and it’s really up there for my next choice

[@carl990]

I think the video is quite good as an introduction to the car, but since you drove the top version, you ought to know (and say) how it differs from the others. You mentioned the range of the "weaker" version, but not this one. I'm sure it's higher, otherwise why make it so much more expensive? And what about charging? How long does it take in this new model and what cables are included? We need some hard facts, please, guys...

[@billsolid947]

Probably the best looking hatchback by far.

[@edwardwain4435]

This 308 is much better looking then the Golf, it's a beautiful interior, why he thinks it's not good, best looking car out there

[@nexusonels]

The design is really interesting and compelling but the price is hard to justify in the higher trims.

[@cyruslad5462]

Best looking car in class, the competition are so so dull.

[@thomasstevie]

It looks great, but £38k! That's very nearly Golf R money for a hatchback and it's not far off from the hybrid 508, which looks better and has more space

[@vaudou74]

dunno, what would be the cost difference compared to an hybrid golf?

[@mitja3387]

People are still appalled at the price of the Peugeot 308 compared to the Golf, but who says the Golf is a better car? It used to be that way, but today, you can no longer claim that the Golf is better and of better quality than the Peugeot. At one time, the Golf was the most advanced in its class, the best in shape and very high quality. Golf today is solved only by the old glory of the vehicle.

[@danpaul4975]

Showing the centre storage with the camera basically sat on the passenger seat? You may as well have shown the boot capacity with the boot closed, or the camera switched off completely. Car's lovely though

[@MrMarkrogers11]

Bought a 308 delivery June 2022.

[@TheAllMightyGodofCod]

Not sure on the looks. The design is a bit overcomplicated to me, with too much creases and design elements... Doesnt look bad but if the AMAZING BX was "origami design" this is a bit "crumpled paper design". Apart from that, it appears to be very well engineered and put together, I might buy it. As for french reliability, still driving my 2009 C4 and no complains so far and no mechanical faults so far. Only scheduled maintenance and a small piece that broke.

[@aleksandarsrdjenovic2487]

Isn't it wonderful to have the steering wheel on the right side? 😅🙈 By the way, I think this is the most beautiful hatchback on the market, and the closest to the premium of all non-premium manufacturers.

[@arnoldtabor3767]

Will they still not move the fusebox over ?

Design amazing. But go on Peugeot Web and get top versions which only has 150bhp and cost over 40k. Are they felt on the own heads?

[@thedewberry_6399]

It does my head in how all these car reviews focus on tall adults in the back seats. Quite frankly I very rarely have an Adult sat in the back, what people buying this class of car want to know is, how easy is it to put a babies car seat in/what it will be like for a child to sit in the back. The adults will be up front!

[@darrenrichards4840]

Check out the Peugeot forum for missing specifications on the new 308. I took delivery of a new 308 GT on 19th October. Missing due to global part shortages... no wireless charging, no 3D feature on the i-cockpit, no heated windscreen, no centre console coloured led. Seems that Peugeot expect us all to accept these missing specifications but pay the same price.

[@Obywatel_RP8P]

Torsion beam at the rear, or multilink?

I agree its more attractive than the golf by a long way esp if you use a life spec one as a comparison. Engines however will be an eye opener. Drive this puretech miserable lump vs a tsi 1.5 and measure them in real world day to day flexibility

The steering wheel is inside the screen. The second screen at the right, is not ergonomic also, huge lag also. Even a tablet with 400$ is faster. What abour reliability for the engine and all this electronics? Would they give a strong warranty for the customer who gives his money?

[@hoagy_ytfc]

Not interested until they make a hot version. I buy Peugeots because of the love I still have for my 1987 205 GTi, and my 1981 205 GTi. In 2016 I got a 208 GTi which is the nearest they’ve got to the classic model since. I replaced that with a 308 GTi, which arguably was a mistake. It’s quick, but average in general. Now, there is no hot hatch option at all in either range

[@hoagy_ytfc]

Also the new 208 and 308 are crazily more expensive than the previous versions

[@allanbriggs807]

I have a 308 HDi (2L diesel). Great car. 150,000kms - it's just run in. And the 2L diesel is one of the best engines Peugeot used.

How does the 308 compare to the new Citroen C4? (quality/ride/comfort)

[@pap_chr5063]

Το c4 για εμένα είναι πανασχημο. Είναι σαν το pontiac azteck άμα το ξέρεις. Το 308 είναι και πολύ πιο όμορφο αλλά και πιο ποιοτικό. Αναμένομενο βέβαια αν σκεφτούμε ότι η peugeot εδώ και μερικά premium είναι premium κατασκευαστης. Γι αυτόυς τους λόγους είναι και ακριβότερο

[@automaticasa_matteosulis]

This car was my #1 option as my next car then I got into one in a salon, and it felt very small in the inside. The seat was compressing my side, I could move the knees, very little space over the head. I'm 1.87m but very lean, so that was surprising,my current car (Octavia Combi) doesn't feel like that. Did you have the same impression?

[@samsbookbook3425]

=) excatly today i went to testdrive a 208 and a 308. It was my first peugeot experience .The rly first thing that i experienced after sitting behind the steerling wheel, was, that the cockpit room seems kind of squezzed. i felt kind of restricted even there is enough space. I think its because they place the whole amatures very high up. after driving it i got used to, but its not the best feeling overall

[@bensmithkent22]

I think the lack of space in these which as you all know are the same as the astras now and especially in the astras case vs the k before is the fact they were designed with the hybrids and full ev options in mind. As is the case for the smaller 208 and corsa. That stuff takes up space. They have done what they can with the packaging and made them far more attractive and premium feeling than the 308 and astra k that went before.

[@user-fi5oo7wc5i]

Design of this Peugeout 308 is fantastic. I did not like the price of this car, it is almost the price of Audi A3. The only rivals of this car is German cars. But I consider this car more interesting than VW Golf. Why do not they use in Peugeout any more physical climate adjuster like in Renault cars? I hope that multimedia system is more responsive and fast now. I pay a lot of attention to responsiveness of multimedia system.

[@barneysman9116]

Does it have a better interior than the new c class?

[@neilburns8869]

I like that Peugeot are making the new 308 in a diesel engine because Citroen & Peugeot make exceptionally good diesels but at the same time I must say that I am surprised that they have opted to go with a diesel version once again as most car makers have already stopped diesel car production.

I'm really pleased with my new Peugeot 308 GT petrol, it's a great car. I've had it almost a month and do I regret my decision YES. The reason why is that Peugeot are supplying the new 308 with missing equipment. Mine is missing...heated windscreen, wireless charging, 3D i-Cockpit, heated steering wheel and traction control deactivation. There should be a series of function buttons to the bottom right of the steering wheel. My car just has 5 blanking plates where these should be and this missing kit is not an isolated incident, search for - Peugeot Forum..Missing Specifications. It's my first and last Peugeot. I'm in touch with Peugeot UK but haven't got anywhere yet !!!

Bet its great fun with that 130bhp hauling that extra weight about. If this had something with ballpark 150/160bhp as its regular petrol id be all over it.

[@neilburns8869]

Electric tailgate is something that I feel is completely unnecessary. Since when have people lost the ability to close a boot lid themselves? The one thing I have found is a bit helpful is the grip or handle on the underside of the boot lid which allows you to pull it down. Which is useful if like me, you aren't particularly tall.

[@bikeman123]

Dont be fooled, the cost of manufacturing such a feature is probably very low and completely unnecessary but it let's them justify an ever increasing purchase price. Simply put shareholders demand that they build expensive, high margin cars and that means roling in lots of features that get people buying but don't increase costs much. In car screens are a good case in point, expensive addition for whats basically a cheap tablet.

It’s funny how when you think the Golf does something better than a Peugeot, Vauxhall, or Renault you have to name-drop it. But when the others do something better, you gloss over it, like how you go monotone and drab when talking about the Peugeot hybrid boot space and quickly mumble something about it being ok and some other cars in the class not being quite as good! Maybe big up brands like Peugeot with a little more enthusiasm when they clearly are better than in areas over the Golf!

Way too slow for a modern car, I went for the GTi, still great economy but more than double the power.

@@PaulHawkins87 i daily drive a 60 HP Fiat and its fast enough for me. Could be a little faster of course, especially for overtaking but come on, do you really NEED 270 HP in a already rather light car? I think about 120 HP is a good amount of power that already makes many cars feel nimble enough, especially if its a diesel engine.

@@erdbeerschosch2839 It's not about what I need, it's about what I want. I'm a car enthusiast and enjoy spirited driving, as do many millions of others. And it's also very useful for overtaking multiple cars at once during the tourist season and everyone seems to be stuck in 3rd gear 🤣

The car looks adorable, I just wish they can put a combustion engine that is close to 400hp...

I'm sure it is because of Brexit.
