The 2024 Peugeot 508 is a petrol sedan with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the Gen 2 LCI generation. The 1.6 PureTech 225 GT is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 1.6 PureTech 225 GT version develops 225 hp and 300 Nm (221 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 7.3 seconds, which is responsive rather than outright performance-focused. Top speed is listed at 250 km/h (155 mph). Its power output is about 17% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 17% 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 6.8 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 52.0 litres (13.7 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 155 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 4,750 mm (187.0 in) in length, 1,859 mm (73.2 in) in width, and 1,403 mm (55.2 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,793 mm (110.0 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 487 litres (17.2 cu ft), expanding to 1,537 litres (54.3 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,540 kg (3,395 lb). That cargo volume is about 12% 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 1.6 PureTech 225 GT and 1.6 PHEV 225 GT. Across the range, the specifications span 225 hp, 7.3 s to 7.9 s, and 54 km, while listed starting prices run from $38,500-$44,500. 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 sedan models from the same period, the 2024 Peugeot 508 is strongest on price and 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.
