The French firm Peugeot brings to our market a new variant of its attractive Peugeot 208, which stands out for employing a renewed engine that offers good performance performance, while it is more efficient in fuel savings and reduces CO2 emissions up to 25%.

The new Peugeot 208 Puretech 2019, boasts a 1.2L turbocharged three-cylinder engine of 110 Hp and 151 Lb-ft of torque, the transmission is five-speed manual, there is no automatic for the time being. We must clarify that this same machine is what we found in 2008, in this model there is an automatic box.

The 1.2L Puretech engine installed on the 208 is lightweight as compact, offers start-stop system, as well as good fuel efficiency. The official numbers are 17 Km / l for city, 25.6 Km / l for highway and 21.7 Km / l in combined mode.

Something worth mentioning is that this Puretech engine from Peugeot, has been awarded for three consecutive years with the International Engine Car of Year recognition during 2015-2016-2017.
On the other hand, being a new variant, this Peugeot 208 Puretech 2019 uses certain equipment issues that we want to highlight. It has parking sensors with a reverse camera, the infotainment system has a 7 "touch screen as Mirror Screen, brings dual-zone climate, automatic lights as rain sensor, fog lights, leather-wrapped steering wheel and wheels of 16" of special design called Titanium.

In the security section, it has two front air bags, two side air bags, ABS and ESP.
At the wheel during the short time we handled it, this Peugeot 208 PureTech left us with a good taste, because it has a gratifying acceleration, which is linear, responds with precision and is fast; on slopes it is not necessary to change at a lower speed to climb, because it does so easily.

When starting from scratch the car behaves super agile, it does not feel heavy, the delivery of torque is perceived below 2,000 laps. The changes when executing are easy to operate, they are precise and all the time you know at what speed you are.

In general the car feels stable, well balanced and offers good soundproofing.
