Peugeot abandoned the idea of new names for each generation of its cars and continued the 208 with a second generation that appeared on the market in 2019, and it was only available with a five-door bodywork.

Over time, Peugeot used a specific naming system where the first number represented a size segment, the middle was always a zero, and the last was a generation. As a result, after the 205 came the 206, the 207, and the first generation of the 208, which appeared on the market in 2012. But seven years later, in 2019, the French car manufacturer introduced the second generation of the 208 instead of a logical 209 model. But customers accepted it, especially since the new model had nothing in common with its predecessor. Moreover, it was only available as a five-door hatchback: no three-door, no open-top, and no station wagons were planned for this generation. The French automaker kindly invited those who wanted a more spacious cabin to get the 2008 crossover, but there were no plans to satisfy those looking for a coupe or a drop-top version.

The 2019 208 came with a front fascia that looked different depending on the model and trim level. While the base model featured halogen headlights. As an option, the automaker offered LED daytime running lights sporting the three-claw signature design used for the rest of the carmaker’s range. The main grille looked like a shield and was adorned by a 3D pattern, while the apron featured a second air intake. The hood was like an Easter egg from the manufacturer since it featured a wide bulge on it, similar to the one installed on the legendary Peugeot 205 GTI from the 80s. From its profile, the B-segment vehicle featured sculptured doors on the lower side and enlarged rear quarter panels. Depending on the grade and options, the little Peugeot featured black plastic molds around the wheel arches, also a tribute to the former rally glory, the 205. Finally, at the back, Peugeot installed a raked-forward tailgate in a Kammback styling featuring a roof spoiler on its upper side.

Inside, the 208 impressed with its small steering wheel mounted low in front of the driver. At the same time, the instrument cluster was moved upwards compared to other vehicles in the segment and was available either with analog dials or with an LCD. Atop the center stack, all versions came fitted with a touchscreen for the infotainment system ranging between 5” and 10”, depending on the grade and options. For those looking for a sportier model, Peugeot installed a set of high-bolstered bucket seats at the front, while the base version featured a set of flat, yet ergonomic, ones. In the back, the split-folding (60/40) bench seat was suitable for two adults but too narrow for three on long trips. Behind them, the 311-liter (11 cu-ft.) trunk could be expanded to up to 1,100 liters (38.8 cu-ft.).

Under the hood, Peugeot installed a wide choice of diesel and gasoline engines and even an electric drivetrain. With a powerband offer ranging between 75 PS (74 hp) and 130 PS (128 hp), the car offered something for every budget.and 260 Nm of torque.
