The stylistic imprint of the Peugeot 508 radically changes with the advent of its second generation. The 2nd gen. now has more sportive and modern lines, which in some ways recall those of German rivals, such as the Audi A5 and the BMW 4 Series. This vehicle is available in both sedan and station wagon versions, as well as in an elongated version called 500L. The chassis of this car is the EMP2, which adopts an extensive use of aluminum; this makes the 508 2nd gen. 70kg lighter than before. The interiors also receive some improvements: passengers are immersed in an elegant and highly customizable environment starting from the regulation of the ambient lighting using RGB LEDs. The virtual cockpit is also very pleasant. To the classic fuel engines ranging from 130 to 225HP of the GT version, a Plug-in Hybrid configuration with the same power as the GT, 225HP, is added. The price plays in favor of buyers, especially in the version with the 1500 cubic centimeter “BlueHDi” basic Diesel engine.
