Peugeot 508 SW diesel engines :
The fundamental 120bhp 1.6-liter diesel's speed and increasing speed figures are best portrayed as 'loose', yet it's really a better than average enough entertainer. For whatever length of time that you prepare, it can move beyond more slow traffic, and it never feels out of its profundity on the motorway.
The best all-rounder is the mid-run 150bhp 2.0-liter diesel motor, which mixes better than average execution with proficiency; drive it financially and it's a quite nice partner. It'll still to 0-62mph in 9.1 seconds and is well ready to pull a boot brimming with stuff when you need it to.
The 180bhp 2.0-liter diesel accompanies a programmed gearbox that does little to improve the driving experience, since it's entirely delayed to switch gears and never is by all accounts in the one you need. It's been customized in light of efficiency, so it rearranges into the most noteworthy apparatus conceivable at each chance, however then brings too long to even consider changing down when you need a spray of speeding up.
Petroleum motors
Not a lot of interest here – move along. Peugeot chose to end deals of petroleum 508 SWs in the UK because of absence of interest, so it's diesel or forget about it.
Half breed motor
The 508 SW is likewise accessible as a reinforced, four-wheel-drive diesel crossover model called the 508 RXH, which we've surveyed independently.
Frameless doors, a unique estate car feature for a mainstream carmaker, hone and enhance the body line whilst permitting a lower glazed surface area. Gaps and flush fittings have been reduced in size with first-class know-how, the wheels have been adjusted to perfectly fill the wheel arches, the roof antenna has been removed (now silk-screened). The body line is both powerful and is redolent of the high end of the market.
Just as for the saloon, the front end is incredibly impressive. With Full LED headlights and the vertical visual signature of the opalescent LED daytime running lights, New Peugeot 508 SW projects a distinct, exclusive identity, highlighted by the famous lion centred on the radiator grill and the 508 logo on the nose of the bonnet.
From the rear, the feel is of power and modernity, with the glossy black horizontal strip framed by three-dimensional Full LED rear lights taken from the saloon, which are illuminated throughout the night and day by adaptive intensity, making the coloured claws constantly visible from the side or full rear view. The chrome twin exhaust tailpipe seats the vehicle and further enhances the sporty design.
Boot access is via a practical tailgate (that can be powered and hands-free). The boot sill is low and wide (6 cm lower than the saloon and only 63.5 cm from the ground, 2.4 cm wider). The quick-draw baggage cover provides an immediate view of the entire boot, which has a capacity (with luggage cover closed) of 530 litres. It is designed to be simple in shape and entirely usable. The boot under-baggage cover capacity is very close to that of the outgoing vehicle (560 litres).
Apart from its practical nature, the boot entry has been enhanced by a stainless steel boot sill to facilitate loading. The GT spec level features aluminium floor rails and a backstop net for efficient boot compartmentalisation.
Modularity is essential for an estate car and New Peugeot 508 SW is fitted with a 2/3-1/3 rear bench seat with a Magic Flat function. With this system, the two sides of the bench can be instantly folded back by means of two controls located on either side of the boot. This results in a virtually flat boot floor providing a total load space of 1780 litres.
