The 408 is included in Peugeot’s E-Lion project, which will see five new electric cars being launched in the next three years, part of the company’s plans to be fully electric by 2030.
When the Blue Lion brand launched their new 308 last year it came in Olivine Green and last week when I picked the SW, or Station Wagon version of the 308, the colour was Avatar Blue.
I drove a Hybrid version with a 1.6-litre engine, but I tended to rely mainly on petrol. I had just one very slow charging experience, 23 minutes to get 6km. After that I just relied on good old-fashioned petrol.
Peugeot has lifted the lid on a number of specification details for its upcoming 2023 308 range for Australia, with plans for a four-variant lineup to hit dealerships from late 2022.
