Ma intristeaza spatele ala ce te duce cu gandul la un sedan ieftin...

Am avut Clio sedane si consideram ca e printre cele mai 'urate' masini de pe piata. Am ajuns la concluzia ca era totusi o masina destul de tare daca si Skoda Superb si 508 i-au urmat liniile portbagajului.

The HDi 112 diesel engine is available in two versions, with either a five-speed manual gearbox or Peugeot’s innovative e-HDi Stop & Start System with a six-speed electronically controlled manual gearbox (EGC). The fitment of the e-HDi Stop & Start System technology on the 508 enables customers to reduce fuel consumption (up to 15% in urban driving) and with the fitment of the EGC gearbox it produces just 109 g/km of CO2 in the Saloon and 110 g/km in the SW version.

The Peugeot 508 is also available with two different front suspension configurations. An all-new pseudo McPherson type front suspension will be the main option on the majority of the 508 range. As well as improved driveability this new set-up reduces weight, as it is 12kg lighter than the design featured on the Peugeot 407. The Peugeot 508 ‘GT’ model features a drop link double wishbone front suspension advancing the suspension design similar to the 407. The use of a linked double wishbone helps separate suspension and steering forces to improve road holding and steering accuracy.

At the rear, the entire range is equipped with multi-arm suspension. This is designed to ensure excellent efficiency with maximum body control and ride comfort due to its superior control of longitudinal and transverse forces.

E de fapt 2.2 si are 204.

[ragewars_sc Find all posts View Profile Close ragewars_sc]

Sau poate e versiunde hybrid??? Cu 2l hdi 160 si motor electru de 40cp???????

[adioperator Find all posts View Profile Close adioperator]

Ma asteptam la ceva mai mult de la acest 508. Nu tu suspensie hidraulica precum la C5, acelasi display "C" la versiunile fara navigatie, motorul 1.6 HDI poate mai mult dar nu au vrut, la design exterior sigur se putea ceva mai radical asa cum a fost 407-le.

508 - inca o dezamagire marca Peugeot!

Din pacate, cu cat apar mai multe poze cu atat sint mai dezamagit de 508. Asta e, sigur v-a fi un dezastru pt Peugeot pt ca nimeni nu va cumpara aceasta masina fara originalitate, copiata dupa celelante marci...
Nu va fi nici pe departe la fel de UAU cum a fost 407 sau 607 la timpul lor.
Asa cum spunea cineva pe aici, mai bine un Citroen C5 sau C6!
Poate dupa ce Peugeot o sa ia in brate cu 508 o sa renunte le "copiat" si o sa se intoarca la un design specific Peugeot fara a mai incerca sa copie masini nemtesti... Daca cineva vrea o masina care sa semene cu o nemteasca atunci isi va lua direct o nemteasca nu ceva care nu e nici cal nici magar!
508 - inca o dezamagire marca Peugeot!

Momentan nu se stie daca a este o dezamagire sau nu, dar ramane de vazut. Mie-mi place.

[Florin82 Find all posts View Profile Close Florin82]

Din poze masina nu prea pare sa aiba personalitate; mai mult, in unele poze seamana cu o struto-camila.
Peugeot este la acest moment departe de ceea ce a fost la inceputul anilor 2000. Daca ma uit la concurenta lui 508 cred ca il plasez printre ultimele ca preferinta. Ca sa nu mai zic de situatia locala dezastruoasa din service.
Peugeot, inca in suferinta...

[BV26CAT Find all posts View Profile Close BV26CAT]

....inca in suferinta... dar cu vanzari record in 2010. Eu zic ca e ok. Chiar arata bine 508.

[Grofu Find all posts View Profile Close Grofu]

In suferinta pentru fani mai bine spus pentru ca asa cum si BV26CAT spune, PSA a avut vanzari record in 2010.

[Florin82 Find all posts View Profile Close Florin82]

Hmmm.. Din cate am inteles grupul Peugeot Citroen a avut record, cat a avut fiecare marca separat nu pot preciza. Insa tind sa cred ca Citroen a avut mai mult succes.
Si daca tot a venit vorba, dupa parerea mea, intre cele doua marci e o diferenta in momentul de fata si aceasta nu este in favoarea Peugeot. Observ ce masinute ofera Citroen - chiar iti starnesc o emotie si parca ai vrea sa le ai - comparativ cu ce ofera Peugeot.
Chiar daca am fost putin offtopic, consider ca 508-ul continua linia de modele destul de modeste cu care nu cred ca va putea sa se bata pentru titlul de cea mai reusita masina in clasa ei. Eu personal, desi foarte multumit de 307-le meu, nu cred ca as cumpara 508-ul; plus conditiile de service Peugeot in Romanina.

Why does Peugeot bother making a new big car? They never sell. Well, apart from the corporate pride in giving French cabinet ministers a ride, Peugeot is a big player in China and will sell 508s by the shedload there.

Having decided to bother, Peugeot has actually bothered rather a lot. The 508 replaces both the 607 - one of the most couldn't-be-bothered cars in history - and the 407. It's as big inside as the 607, but only a bit longer than the 407. But impressively, it's 45kg or so lighter than the 407.

It's got some good technology and its interior quality signals real commitment. While it's at it, Peugeot has abandoned all that 'interesting' styling, and replaced it with something you might actually want to be seen out with.

We're in the top-end GT version. It's got a new 204bhp, 2.2-litre diesel that outperforms the 407's V6 diesel but slashes consumption and CO2 by a third. OK, it's not as refined as a V6. But the good news is that with its smooth responsive auto ’box, it makes a sterling (or Euro) job of hauling this big wagon effortlessly down the overtaking side.

See more pictures of the new Peugeot 508

The old 407 had fancy double-wishbone front suspension. Peugeot decided this was too heavy (adds 20kg) and expensive for most 508s and only gives advantages with big-torque engines. So this GT is the one model to get it - and here there's a weight saving by switching from a V6 to a four.

The rest of the engines, down to a 1.6 HDI doing a super-impressive 110g/km, have straightforward struts at the front. Another pragmatic decision against the technological grain was to retain hydraulic steering assistance. It can't do self-parking, but the feel is better. And hey, they want you to buy it to drive, not to park.

Sure enough the 508 GT is a seriously engaging car, tackling the twisty, bumpy and greasy but quick test routes like it was made for them. Actually it was - we're using some of the French backroads where Peugeot does its testing. You can feel each tyre take the load as you work it through a bend and alter your accelerator load, but there's no torque steer to speak of, which is amazing given how much torque there is. That'll be those wishbones, then.

Over bumps the bodyshell feels stiff and everything's well bolted to it. German, in other words. The supple and quiet ride will help keep it that way.

This top-end car has more dash buttons than a pearly queen, but they're well arranged. Regular versions will be calmer, obviously, but they'll still have plenty of kit - full navigation is there even in the fleet-special SR trim. And you can tell the 508 is a step ahead for a big Peugeot because rather than feeling overdressed, the car lives up to the spec.

The worst thing will be telling your mates you've put 30 grand into a Peugeot estate.
