Reborn under the Stellantis era, the new generation Peugeot 308 will start arriving in UK showrooms in December. In the meantime, the French automaker has released the pricing and specification of the compact hatchback range.
The 2021 Peugeot 308 is offered in the Active Premium, Allure, Allure Premium, GT, and GT Premium trim levels.

OTR pricing starts at £24,000 (equal to $33,342), £640 ($889) more than the base Volkswagen Golf Life, and goes up to at least £38,800 ($53,902) for the range-topping model, £495 ($688) shy of the 320 PS (315 HP / 235 kW) Golf R AWD hot hatch.

Depending on the chosen grade, the new 308 can be had with a 1.2-liter PureTech gasoline unit, with 130 PS (128 HP / 96 kW), or a 1.5-liter BlueHDi diesel that has an identical output.
