Peugeot 508 returns with outstanding engine

Peugeot Automobile Nigeria Limited said its newly assembled Peugeot 508 is one of the most powerful cars in its category, with engine capacity of 1.6 litres.

The company’s flagship sedan, which replaced the Peugeot 608, according to the organisation, delivers more power than most 3.0 litre engines.

It said the 1.6 turbo horsepower Peugeot 508 churns out amazing 156 brake-horsepower with a very high torque of 240 Nm@1400rpm.
This engine is both dynamic and smooth, boasting very high fuel efficiency. The beauty of it all is that the Peugeot 508 delivers the fuel efficiency of a 1.6 litre car but the power of a 3.0 litre V6 engine.

Peugeot also marched this engine with a six-speed automatic gearbox which strikes a perfect balance between driveabilty and fuel efficiency. The double wishbone front suspension with drop link, gives superior level of driving precision making for an enjoyable ride in the 508. From outside to inside, the 508 is an epitome of beauty.

The style of the 508 suggests a vehicle sculpted from a solid mass, reflecting attributes of elegance, robustness and prime design quality.

Finely-worked headlights at the front, the 508 illustrates Peugeot’s evolving aesthetic code with a unique grill rendered in a fluid style, and finely-worked headlights with their feline look, combining chrome and satin surfaces. LED driving lights also add to the beauty of the 508.

The rear is simple but seductive. Three prominent red claws mask three rows of LED lights. The sides of the car are purposefully streamlined, enhanced by the contours of the satin chrome-edged windows.

Inside the 508 is the height of luxury because the 508 is the flagship of the Peugeot family. Leather seats, quad-zone air conditioning, seats with memory settings, streamlined style of the dashboard with quality material, all add to the top-of-the-range feel of the passenger compartment.
