Peugeot 508 SW overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The exterior refresh centers on a redesigned front section featuring an aggressive black grille and new matrix LED headlights with Peugeot's signature three-claw daytime running light signature. The rear highlights revised lighting elements and standard 18-inch Epherra alloy wheels optimized for aerodynamic efficiency. Peugeot has also updated its brand badges with a basalt grey color finish. Buyers can select from seven paint options, which include three newly introduced shades: Okenite White, Eclipse Blue, and Titanium Grey.
Interior
Inside the cabin, the updated i-Cockpit layout includes refreshed digital instrument graphics and a central 10-inch touchscreen. This screen hosts the Peugeot i-Connect Advanced infotainment system, which features TomTom navigation, voice command capabilities, and over-the-air software updates. While standard models maintain a 530-liter cargo capacity to support everyday utility, the layout remains focused on driver ergonomics and a low-slung, premium-feeling cabin layout.
Performance
The engine lineup offers traditional internal combustion and plug-in hybrid drivetrains, all paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The petrol range features a 1.2-liter PureTech three-cylinder engine producing 130 horsepower and 230 Nm of torque, while the diesel alternative is a 1.5-liter BlueHDi four-cylinder engine generating 130 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque. Two plug-in hybrid variants are available, producing combined outputs of 180 horsepower and 225 horsepower respectively. Both hybrids utilize a 12.4 kWh battery pack to enable short-distance electric-only driving.
Practicality
As a D-segment wagon, the 508 SW is designed with daily utility in mind, providing seating for five passengers and a 530-liter trunk space. The low loading lip of the wagon body style makes loading cargo easier compared to standard SUVs, while its 4,778 mm length ensures stable highway cruising and ample passenger space. The vehicle maintains a fuel-efficient character, with the diesel variant averaging 5.2 liters per 100 kilometers on a mixed cycle.
Safety and tech
The 508 SW includes a comprehensive suite of driver assist features. Key technologies include adaptive cruise control with a Stop&Go function for highway traffic, active emergency braking functional up to 140 km/h, and a night vision system designed to detect pedestrians and animals in low-light conditions. A 360-degree camera setup assists with low-speed maneuvering and parking, while blind-spot monitoring helps maintain highway safety.
Buyer notes
When deciding between configurations, buyers should weigh the efficiency of the hybrid models against the simplicity of the standard combustion engines. The plug-in hybrid options provide zero-emission city driving capabilities but require regular charging to maximize their economic benefits. Standard models like the 1.5-liter diesel remain highly efficient highway cruisers for long-distance drivers. Equipment availability, safety package inclusions, and specific trim levels may vary depending on the local market.
