Peugeot 508 (2018-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Bold and attractive styling	Not as practical as some rivals
High-quality interior	The ride is too firm for some tastes
Plug-in hybrid is a great choice for company car drivers	BMW 3 Series is more enjoyable to drive

Quick Summary

The Peugeot 508 (2018-present) is a stylish family saloon and estate that challenges the conservative design conventions of its segment. With its bold, modern exterior featuring a swooping Fastback roof and sleek SW estate variant, the 508 offers premium appeal comparable to the Audi A5 Sportback. The 2023 facelift updated the infotainment system and styling, bringing the car in line with Peugeot's newer models. Inside, quality materials and useful storage create a pleasant environment, though the sloping roof limits headroom for taller passengers, and boot space of 487 litres is average for the class.

The 508 delivers impressive driving dynamics with direct steering, excellent grip, and a supple ride that makes it a refined long-distance cruiser. Engine options include 1.6-litre and 1.5-litre diesel units, a turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol, and a plug-in hybrid offering 30 miles of zero-emissions motoring. The high-performance PSE variant with 335bhp rivals the BMW M340i and Audi S4. Running costs are competitive, with diesel engines achieving up to 63.6mpg and the plug-in hybrid ideal for company car users. A 2023 facelift refreshed the design and technology, keeping the 508 contemporary.

Best for: Buyers seeking stylish, modern design with premium appeal, company car users considering the plug-in hybrid, and those wanting a refined long-distance cruiser with engaging handling.

Not ideal for: Those prioritising maximum practicality and boot space, drivers preferring softer suspension, or buyers seeking the driving engagement of a BMW 3 Series or Audi A4.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 508 if: You value bold, modern styling with premium appeal, seek a refined long-distance cruiser, or are a company car user considering the plug-in hybrid option.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise maximum practicality and boot space, prefer a softer suspension setup, or want the driving engagement of a BMW 3 Series or Audi A4.

Competitive Position: The Peugeot 508 stands out in the family saloon segment with its striking design and premium interior quality. Whilst it may not match the Skoda Superb for practicality or the BMW 3 Series for driving dynamics, its bold styling, refined ride, and excellent plug-in hybrid option make it an appealing choice for those seeking something different. The 2023 facelift keeps it contemporary, and good deals are readily available, making it a compelling proposition for style-conscious buyers.
