Peugeot 308 (T9). 2013 to date (prod. n/a). 5-door saloon. F/F, 1199 cm³ (I3 DOHC), 1560 cm³ diesel, 1598 cm³ petrol (I4 DOHC). Less polarizing looks for second-generation 308 (not 309—this was the second Peugeot to reuse an older number), though some might say Peugeot erred on the side of conservatism. EMP2 platform. Some flair with touches of 208. Improved dynamics and better interior (also with 208 ideas), and better finish. Diesel showed better economy. Down side was the Energy Saver tyres, which affected grip, based on an early test.
