In shifting away from the normal three-field saloon to a extra fashionable fastback search for the 508, Peugeot has sacrificed one thing in the way in which of practicality. But while this does have a few downsides - primarily rear headroom - total the 508 is a cushty and roomy proposition. The interior apes the car’s sporty fastback look, with a trendy cockpit that feels coupe-like yet is still comfy. The dashboard design features swooping curves, and with a high centre console, you feel properly cocooned and insulated when sitting in the front seats. All models have no less than half-electric front seat adjustment, and from Allure models up there’s lumbar support and heated seats as commonplace. One thing that’s price noting is that the 508 has Peugeot’s i-cockpit set up, where you look over the steering wheel to see the instruments. While it really works properly for essentially the most part, some drivers might feel they don’t have a clear view of the dash pod when the steering wheel and seat are adjusted to their liking.
The 508 provides a cushty trip each round city and on the motorway, and while there is some low-pace fidgeting when fitted with the most important 19-inch alloys, this will be much less of a concern for many patrons. In case you opt for the top of the range GT model, then there’s additionally energetic suspension to keep the journey consolation at an optimum stage. Where most cars are becoming ever larger, the 508 bucks this trend by actually being barely shorter than the outgoing mannequin. At 4,750mm lengthy the 508 Fastback is nearly 15 centimetres shorter than a Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport, but somewhat longer than premium rivals similar to the brand new BMW 3 Series saloon. Those up entrance might be greater than comfy with plenty of leg, elbow and headroom. But those within the rear will probably be slightly much less fortunate, particularly if they are six-toes tall or above. The sloping roofline actually does make it tight for rear seat passengers when it comes to headroom, and it’s doubtless their heads will probably be brushing the headlining. The 508 SW improves the difficulty barely, but not by quite as much as you may need anticipated. Legroom is adequate with out setting new standards for the category, as it doesn’t offer the same quantity of house as you’d discover within the back of a Skoda Superb or Vauxhall Insignia Grand Sport. The 508 saloon’s boot has a 487-litre capacity when the rear seats are raised, which will increase to 1,537 litres when they’re folded flat. The 508 SW does provide a larger carrying capacity, but maybe not by as much as you would possibly assume.
