Revealed just one week ago, the new Peugeot 308 is so fresh that no actual figures have been released yet. However, the new French hatch has already fired up the imagination of those that made a habit of rendering different body-styled versions.
After Theophilus Chin came up with the three-door variant, Design RM has published a rendering which depicts the car with a Sports Wagon (SW) shell. Besides the gold color and a new set of rims, no other styling cues found on the five-door version have been altered. The estate’s design is both predictable and familiar, and there’s nothing wrong with it.
Getting back to the real thing, the new Peugeot 308 will make its world debut at this year’s Frankfurt Motor Show, scheduled on September 10, while European sales, excluding UK, will begin shortly afterwards. The British will get to see the French car in their showrooms starting January 2014.
No word on what engines will be moving the 308, but it’s safe to assume that many of them will be shared with the 208. The vehicle will be produced in Sochaux, France, while the powerplants will be delivered from the company’s facilities in Tremery and Douvrin.
