PEUGEOT 208

Exterior Design

Now, this is a car that will wow; you, your passengers and passers-by from every angle. Styled with a modern and luxurious flair, the design is alluring with a fierce but fun character.

The 208 car has a sporty look, reflected in the curved body with a long bonnet and bold front grille. There’s a definite presence to the 208, created by its low and strong stance. When comparing the new model to its predecessor, we can see a clear difference from the front. The nose of the 208 has been made wider, making it stand out. Whilst the larger chrome grille is deeper bolder. Key to the design success, are the LED headlights which feature Peugeot’s signature claw design paired with the unique and alluring vertical running lights. Here you’ll find your indicator signal too.

This unique and almost futuristic lighting setup ensures visibility of your own vehicle and of oncoming drivers and obstacles is optimised for safety, and not just-style. You’ll even have automatic light adjustment functionality, ensuring the brightness of your lights are automatically adjusted night and day.

As a passerby, however, you’ll see the 208 drive past with a glossy black strip connecting the rear lights, reinforcing the lines of the body. To match, and depending on your chosen version, the 208 features gloss black wheel arches and window surrounds, whilst on top, you can choose to add the Black Diamond roof. To personalise further, you can pair the roof with optional diamond-cut alloy wheels.

The choice is really in your hands.
