As previously reported, Peugeot turned to the "bigger-stronger-harder-spiral" in 208th. He was about six inches shorter, more than 100 kilograms lighter, yet offers more comfort and space than its predecessor. Even the trunk has grown. Here the engineers a real feat has been achieved. The new design line with the lower grill and the marked differences between three-and five-door should be well received by potential customers.
Design
Visually, the little one is on the path set by the big brother 508th The design is consistent, the giant shark's mouth was significantly mitigated. This affects the 208 harmonic and slightly more sympathetic than the rather aggressively styled 207th Three-and five-door model differ quite significantly. For the three-door model gives a different line and a prominent chrome bar in the C-pillar for a personal touch (see slideshow). On the hood there are two distinct lines, the headlights again reach far back. At the rear, especially like the flashy lights. Giving a clear distinguishing feature of the 208 and distinguish it from other small cars. Later it will also give back a combined version and a folding roof variant (208 CC).
Space and weight
The developers are particularly proud of the weight reduction. On average, the slimmed down by a whopping 208 110 kilograms. In some cases it is even 173 kilograms (!). Thus, the entry-level model only weighs in at 975 kilograms. Of these, in addition to the performance also benefits the consumer. A clever space management ensures despite the shorter by six inches to two inches of body more legroom in the rear. The boot capacity has increased by 15 liters to 285 If the backrest folded down the rear seats increases the storage space on ordinary 1076 liters.
Cockpit and Operation
In the cockpit, the Lion Brand also proposes a new way. Thus, the fittings are installed very near the top, making the driver's gaze must deviate less from the street. It is possible but not always, that you have on the steering wheel the entire ads in view. If the height is not true, the circular instruments are hidden by the steering wheel. The optional head-up display is an absolute novelty in this class. The steering wheel was a bit smaller and is better in the hand. Peugeot also promises a more intuitive and ergonomic operation. This will help especially the new, large touch screen which is also located near the top and combines many functions. Overall, the cockpit looks very stylish and shows once again that the French understand this point in their craft. Even with the small car so come on premium feel.
Engines
Come under the hood e.g. new three-cylinder engine with 1.0 or 1.2 liter engine is used. In combination with the weight reduction, they provide a lower consumption and CO2 emissions. The base gasoline will consume only 4.3 liters per 100 kilometers (99g CO2/km). On average, every mile of the 208 blows to 34 grams less CO2. The diesel engines will receive a start-stop system, so that all diesels remain less than 100 grams of CO2/km. Here is the most fuel-efficient model will ever consume only 3.4 liters per 100 kilometers (87g CO2/km).
