The new Peugeot 308 has only just been released, but it is already picking up awards left, right and centre.
Peugeot is looking to build on the buzz and success early with the release of the new 308 SW, a spacious estate version of the existing hatchback.
According to Peugeot, the car has been completely redesigned and now delivers "class-leading levels of competitiveness" for cars in its sector.
The design is stylish and sporty at once, oozing class and refinement in a dynamic model. It is roomy, versatile and above all practical, making it a perfect family or business vehicle.
Its boot space alone is above and beyond the best in its segment, delivering 610dm3 of capacity. Folded rear seats only help to enhance the available storage space.
Like its smaller hatch sibling, the car utilises Peugeot's 'Efficient Modular Platform' (EMP2) philosophy, helping to minimise weight and increase efficiency.
In addition to the Euro 6 petrol and diesel engines on offer, the car also comes with a BlueHDI version that emits as little as 85g/km of CO2 - another best in class.
The new Peugeot is set to make its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2014 and is expected to hit showrooms and forecourts in the Spring.
