An excellent electric CUV (subjective impression): plenty of power as an AWD, great equipment (N Line X), range is okay and consumption is reasonable, and the looks are simply different from the others.

The Peugeot 508 SW dresses up as a sleek estate, blending Parisian flair with usable loadspace so you don't have to choose between style and weekend practicality. Inside it's a driver-focused cabin with quality materials and clever packaging that makes it a sensible, slightly mischievous choice for buyers who want an executive feel without the buttoned-up seriousness.

I've owned a 508 GT SW diesel since 2022. Its design is unbeatable for elegance and sporty style, very comfortable for travelling (I'm a sales rep) and has excellent cargo capacity. It's a shame PEUGEOT has discontinued production of this splendid car — it's given me nothing but satisfaction.
