An extended e-HDi range
After its launch of the 508 and the new 308 in 2011, the 208 will benefit from the e-HDi technology on 4 of its 5 diesel power trains. Fast, effective and silent, this new generation Stop&Start system permits the combining of reduced fuel consumption and emissions of CO2 (up to -15% in town) with maximum pleasure of use, thanks to the stopping of the engine and almost instantaneous restarting, without any noise or vibration. So, with the Peugeot 208 this technology, widely acclaimed at its launch, is made accessible to the maximum number of customers, favouring their day-to-day fuel consumption and driving pleasure.
