The New Peugeot 308

All New 308 Debuts at the Australian International Motorshow

The Peugeot 308 was previewed at the Australian International Motorshow during October, little more than a month after its global debut at the Frankfurt Motorshow.

The current 307 model has been a huge success world-wide, with over three million cars sold in only six years of production. The 308 will build on the strengths of its predecessor, and will be available in both hatch and Touring models, with a mix of petrol and diesel engines available.

The 308 makes a strong visual statement and will certainly make an impact in the small car segment when it arrives in Australia next February.

With a real sense of premium styling befitting larger and more expensive cars, a 5 star ENCAP safety rating, a beautifully finished cabin boasting a high quality interior, outstanding levels of standard equipment and competitive pricing, the 308 is set to be an important part of Peugeot’s continued growth in 2008.

The 308 will bring customers class leading interior space, visibility and brightness, and will become a reference point for the premium small car segment. With the arrival of the 308, no longer will customers see downsizing from the large car segments as a compromise.

Full pricing and details will be released closer to the launch date of the car.
