New Peugeot 508 hypothetical image may be unveiled in spring

Recently, some overseas media exposed hypothetical pictures of the new Peugeot 508. The new car may make its global debut in the spring of 2023. It will be comprehensively upgraded in terms of appearance, interior, and configuration. However, due to market performance not being as good as expected, the new car will focus on high performance. The market-oriented 508 PSE may be delisted.

In terms of appearance design, the new Peugeot 508 will undergo comprehensive optimization and upgrades, adopting the latest family-style design concept similar to the new Peugeot 308, with a sharp and dynamic shape, and will also use Peugeot's latest car logo. In terms of interior, it is expected to have a new high-definition touch screen and a comprehensive upgrade of the vehicle system.

In terms of power system, the new Peugeot 508 will continue to be equipped with a 1.6T engine. The regular version will add a 48-volt mild hybrid system. The battery capacity of the plug-in hybrid version may be increased to 13.2 kWh, and the pure electric cruising range may be increased. The range will be increased to 60 kilometers, and a 1.5L diesel engine model will also be launched, matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The Peugeot 508 PSE will most likely exit the market. PSE stands for Peugeot Sport Engineered and is positioned as a performance model. The vehicle is consistent with the Peugeot 508 in terms of styling, but the details are different. In terms of power, it is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system including a 1.6T engine and two electric motors, and the acceleration time from 0-100km/h is 5.2 seconds.
