The 2024 Peugeot 308 is a petrol hatchback with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the P5 III generation. The 1.2 PureTech 130 GT is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 1.2 PureTech 130 GT version develops 130 hp and 230 Nm (170 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 8.9 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 218 km/h (135 mph). Its power output is about 39% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 23% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 5.7 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 52.0 litres (13.7 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 130 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,367 mm (171.9 in) in length, 1,852 mm (72.9 in) in width, and 1,441 mm (56.7 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,675 mm (105.3 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 412 litres (14.5 cu ft), expanding to 1,323 litres (46.7 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,326 kg (2,923 lb). That cargo volume is about 11% above the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of 1.2 PureTech 130 GT, 1.6 PHEV 225 GT, and SW 1.6 PHEV 225 GT. Across the range, the specifications span 130 hp to 225 hp, 7.5 s to 8.9 s, and 60 km, while listed starting prices run from $32,500-$42,000. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol hatchback models from the same period, the 2024 Peugeot 308 is strongest on cargo capacity, while power and acceleration stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
