General description
The Peugeot 308 5p GT PureTech 130 S&S EAT8, in its 2020-2021 version, presents itself as an attractive option within the compact segment. With a 1.2-liter, 131 hp gasoline engine, coupled with an 8-speed automatic transmission, it promises a balanced and efficient driving experience. Its price of €27,061 positions it as an interesting alternative for those looking for a well-equipped car with a distinctive touch.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the Peugeot 308 with its 131 hp PureTech engine and EAT8 gearbox offers a smooth and progressive response. The 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 9.4 seconds is more than sufficient for daily use, and the top speed of 204 km/h allows for long journeys with confidence. The speed-sensitive electric power steering provides good road connection, while the suspension, McPherson type at the front and torsion beam at the rear, effectively filters out road irregularities, offering a good compromise between comfort and dynamism. The combined consumption of 6 l/100km according to the WLTP cycle is a plus for its efficiency.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2017 Peugeot 308, which is maintained in this version, stands out for its elegant and modern lines. The 5-door body, with a length of 4253 mm and a width of 1804 mm, gives it a compact yet robust presence. Exterior details, such as the 17-inch wheels with 225/45 R17 tires, enhance its character. Inside, Peugeot's i-Cockpit, with its small steering wheel and elevated instrumentation, creates a distinctive and driver-oriented atmosphere, although it may not be to everyone's liking. The 420-liter trunk is generous for its segment.
Technology and features
This Peugeot 308 incorporates modern technology to enhance the driving experience and safety. The 1.2-liter PureTech engine, with direct injection, turbo, and intercooler, is an example of mechanical efficiency. The 8-speed EAT8 automatic transmission ensures smooth and fast gear changes. Although driving assistance systems are not specified in the provided data, it is expected to include elements such as Stop&Start to optimize urban consumption. The speed-sensitive electric power steering contributes to a more comfortable and precise drive.
Competition
In the competitive compact segment, the Peugeot 308 faces tough rivals such as the Volkswagen Golf, SEAT León, Ford Focus, or Renault Mégane. Against them, the 308 stands out for its distinctive design, its i-Cockpit, and the efficiency of its PureTech engine. Its 8-speed automatic transmission is a strong point, offering a refined driving experience. However, some rivals may offer more interior space or a wider range of engines, so the choice will depend on each buyer's priorities.
Conclusion
The Peugeot 308 5p GT PureTech 130 S&S EAT8 is a compact that combines attractive design, an efficient engine, and a very comfortable automatic transmission. Its road behavior is balanced, offering a good compromise between comfort and dynamism. While the i-Cockpit may generate divided opinions, its originality is undeniable.
