2023 Peugeot 508 PSE

With the new 508, available in sedan, SW and PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED versions, PEUGEOT reveals a new design for its top-of-the-range silhouettes. The front end is innovative with even more dynamism and bears the brand’s new emblem at its heart. You can find more visual details of the 2023 Peugeot 508 PSE gallery by scrolling up.

The new 508 bring modernity by fully integrating the grille motif into the volume of the bumper

These models feature a new signature lighting system with three claws at the front. They are integrated into the extremely slim Matrix LED headlamps with their unique design fitted to all versions.

At the rear, the new LED lights incorporate the signature 3-claw design with scrolling indicators.

In the new 508 and 508 SW passenger compartment, there is a clear move upmarket with emphasis placed on the quality and modernity of the materials used in the new upholstery, as well as a new, streamlined gearbox control for a better experience and greater ergonomics.

On board the new 508, the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® boasts even more technology! Thanks to the new PEUGEOT i-Connect® Advanced infotainment system equipped with a 10-inch high-definition central screen, connected navigation, natural language voice recognition, wireless connectivity and over-the-air updating.

EMOTION.

The 508s represent the best of PEUGEOT in terms of driving pleasure and comfort, of course complemented by driving assistance systems that provide safety and calm. These include:

• Night Vision, which alerts drivers to any animals, pedestrians or cyclists in the lane before they appear in the high beam,
• Semi-autonomous Level 2 driving, consisting of Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go and Lane Keeping Assist,
• HD cameras for parking assistance,
• Controlled suspension with 3 modes (Normal, Comfort and Sport)

EXCELLENCE.

The range of engines powering the new PEUGEOT 508 and 508 SW includes two rechargeable hybrid versions, a new 180bhp and a 225bhp version, a 130bhp petrol version and a 130bhp diesel version. All engines are combined with the 8-speed EAT8 automatic gearbox.

The standard-bearer of neo-performance, the 508 PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED plug-in hybrid version has 360bhp and 4-wheel drive.

1.The customers

The new 508s are consistent with the values and concerns of customers looking for a vehicle with a sporty and dynamic silhouette, offering a real on-board experience, without compromising on technology and connectivity. Customers are more environmentally aware and are looking for efficient engines and driving pleasure. The new 508 SW adds the practicality of its elegant silhouette to its family appeal for younger customers.

2. ALLURE: a dynamic and modern silhouette 

These new 508s make the front end more modern by fully integrating the grille motif into the volume of the bumper, with evolving patterns and the use of body colour to further assert this new design.

The new PEUGEOT crest is naturally in the centre of the grille, with the pattern radiating outwards from this signature.

The front end also has a less stratified design, adding to the more modern look. The beam disappears inside the grille and gives the silhouette a smoother look.

On the 508 PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED version, the grille is precise, alternating between glossy and textured black, sharp and feline. The Kryptonite signature with three claws stands alone at the end of the bonnet.

Matrix LED technology, standard across the range, optimises the design of the headlamps, which are extremely slim to support a feline look, sharper than ever before on a PEUGEOT. These headlamps were designed in a single piece and represent a technological achievement by integrating the new DRL signature with 3 claws and a 3D effect that adds depth.

The new 508s are based a long wheelbase of 2.79m and overall length of 4.75m (Saloon) and 4.79m (SW), for a width of 1.86m with the mirrors folded down.

Side-on, the natural vibrancy of the new 508 and 508 SW is enhanced by a new aluminium wheel, named EPHERRA, with a diameter of 18 inches and a diamond pattern that combines design and efficiency.

All the aluminium wheels are fitted with a 5-spoke wheel centre stamped with the PEUGEOT crest with the wheel nuts completely concealed..

The front, side and rear badges of the new 508 are more modern with new typography and a new Basalt Grey colour.

At the rear, the light signature is a reinterpretation of the three claws theme in a more horizontal and dynamic version. These full LED lights with scrolling flashing are standard across the entire range.

The emblem has been replaced by a dark Basalte Grey “PEUGEOT” badge that extends across the entire width of the central black strip. This contributes to modernising and visually broadening the rear end.

7 colours, including 3 new ones, will be available for the new PEUGEOT 508:

• Okenite White (new colour),
• Eclipse Blue (new colour),
• Titanium Grey (new colour),
• Selenium Grey (now available on all versions),
• Artense Grey,
• Elixir Red,
• Perla Nera Black.

The new PEUGEOT 508 and 508 SW will be available in 3 trim levels:

• ALLURE
• GT
• PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED, with an exclusive engine.

3.EMOTION behind the wheel: the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit®

Inside the passenger compartment, the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® is one of the strongest features. For a decade, it has been nurtured and modernised with each new generation. With the new 508, it leaves its mark in terms of ergonomics, quality, practicality and technology with a new infotainment system, the PEUGEOT i-Connect® Advanced.

The compact steering wheel is a feature of the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® and increases driving pleasure tenfold by offering unique agility and precision of movement.

The steering wheel has the new coat of arms at its centre and houses the controls for the multimedia system (audio sources, telephone) as well as the volume and voice control.

Located at eye level just above the steering wheel, the digital cluster can be fully customised and personalised, with new display modes (TomTom Connected Navigation, Radio/Media, Driving Aids, Energy Flow, etc.) that can be changed directly from the steering wheel.

In the centre of the dashboard is the central 10-inch high-definition touch screen, slightly pointing towards the driver (“driver oriented”), which optimises driving ergonomics without excluding the passenger from reading or using it.

You will find refined piano keys below the centre screen providing shortcuts to the main menu, climate settings, applications, driving aids, telephone, media and vehicle settings.

The centre console features a sleek new design with a new automatic gear selector. The driver can select the different modes of the 8-speed EAT8 automatic gearbox with a single touch.

For hybrid engines, the Brake mode (B) is used to activate regenerative braking. For the petrol version, it is replaced by a Manual mode (M), which allows the gear to be selected manually using the paddles behind the steering wheel.

In addition, there is a Driving Modes selector, which allows the driver to choose different types of driving (Electric, Eco, Hybrid, Normal, Sport and 4WD) depending on the engine. The selected mode also affects the firmness of the controlled suspension (Normal, Sport and Comfort) when this equipment is available.

4.EMOTION connected: the PEUGEOT i-Connect® Advanced system

The new 508 offers a connected, ergonomic experience that is seamless with everyday use. The new infotainment system allows each driver, according to his or her skills and desires, to enjoy the best of the smartphone and car worlds. Each driver can define and maintain his or her own display, atmosphere and setting preferences. Up to eight different profiles can be stored in the system.

The mirroring feature connects the smartphone to the infotainment system wirelessly (Wi-Fi technology), and it is possible to connect two phones via Bluetooth at the same time. Four USB sockets complete the connected device (two USB-C under the armrest in row 1 and two USB-A in row 2).

The 10-inch high-definition central screen is fully customisable, with multi-windows and widgets (or shortcuts) that are easy to use and responsive like a tablet. It is easy to swipe through the menus from left to right or up and down for notifications, or with a three-finger tap to bring up the home page. Like on a smartphone, it is easy to go back to the main page at any time by pressing the “Home” piano key.

At the top of the screen, a permanent banner shows outdoor temperature information, air conditioning, position in widget pages, connectivity data, notifications and time.

The PEUGEOT i-Connect Advanced is equipped with a powerful and efficient TomTom® connected navigation system. For optimum readability, the map can be displayed on a full central screen. The system is updated “over the air“, i.e. directly by transmitting the data via the telecoms network.

The “OK PEUGEOT” natural language voice recognition command is a daily tool to improve safety and usability by providing access to all requests related to infotainment functions.

To assist users and answer their questions, the system also includes on-board documentation and tutorials.

5.Technological EMOTION: driving aids 

On board the new PEUGEOT 508, a comprehensive range of driving aids and latest-generation equipment, fed by information gathered by several cameras and numerous radars.

It makes driving, manoeuvres and journeys safer and smoother:

• Adaptive cruise control with Stop and Go function and adjustable inter-vehicle distance setpoint
• Automatic emergency braking with collision warning: detects pedestrians and cyclists, day and night, from 7km/h to 140km/h.
• Active Lane Departure Warning with lane departure correction.
• Driver Attention Alert, which detects impaired alertness over long driving times and at speeds of more than 65km/h by analysing micro-movements at the steering wheel.
• Extended recognition and display of road signs on the digital cluster: stop signs, one-way signs, no overtaking signs, end of overtaking signs, in addition to the usual speed-related signs.
• Night Vision system, which detects living creatures (pedestrians/animals) in front of the vehicle at night or in reduced visibility. The range of the system ensures detection beyond the range of the high beam, with a central infrared vision display in the digital instrument cluster located directly in the driver’s field of vision.
• Blind spot monitoring.
• High-definition parking aid cameras.
• Mirror indexing when engaging reverse gear.
• Matrix LED headlamps for maximum use of high beam power without dazzling preceding or approaching vehicles.
