The 308 SW is a family estate car from Peugeot that comes with a fine level of standard equipment, a range of fuel-efficient engines and a well-appointed cabin. The 308 SW is a practical solution for growing families and is available in five trim levels: Access, Active, Allure, GT Line and GT.
Exterior design
The sharp-looking 308 SW features expansive wraparound headlamps, including LED daytime running lights, and claw-effect rear LED lamps. Body-coloured elements include door mirrors and bumpers, while tinted glass can be found in rear side and tailgate windows. Silver roof rails bring an extra dash of sparkle, and provide additional load-bearing options.
Interior design
The SW is longer and wider than its standard 308 counterparts, which means there is even more space for everyone on board. The driver benefits from a height-adjustable seat, helping to provide a good view of the road ahead. Standard features include power-assisted steering, air conditioning and remote-controlled central locking. The 308 SW has one of the biggest boots in its class, offering 660 litres of cargo space. Once the rear seats are folded, this capacity rises to 1,775 litres.
Advancements in lighter materials used to construct the vehicle have enabled it to benefit from optimised running costs and improved driving dynamics. A range of engines includes a 1.6-litre 118bhp diesel unit that returns as much as 88.3mpg and only 84g/km of CO2. A 1.2-litre 128bhp petrol option delivers up to 61.4mpg and a CO2 emission figure of 107g/km (when paired with six-speed manual transmission).
Technology and safety
A DAB digital radio, a CD player, Bluetooth connectivity and USB and AUX ports are included as standard. This model comes with a five-star Euro NCAP rating and among its passive safety features are six airbags and three-point inertia-reel seatbelts. Driver aids include Cruise Control, Speed Limiter, Anti-lock Braking System, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Emergency Braking Assistance and Electronic Stability Programme.
