[Auto] The Peugeot 508 Sport Engineered 360 hp already has a price

[#Steeven.™]

Peugeot surprised at the beginning of 2019 with a very sporty plug-in hybrid prototype. In addition, it was created by the competition and high-performance subsidiary Peugeot Sport. At the beginning of this 2020 it was confirmed and they showed us the production model: the Peugeot 508 Sport Engineered.

Available in both 508 bodies (saloon and SW station wagon), the Peugeot 508 Sport Engineered combines the efficiency of plug-in hybrid mechanics for everyday use, with high performance. So much so that we are faced with an all-wheel drive model with no less than 360 hp.

This sports saloon combines a PureTech 200 petrol engine with two electric motors, located at the front and rear. As we said, it is a four-wheel drive model and its combined power reaches 360 hp. Meanwhile, its maximum torque is no less than 520 Nm.

This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 5.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km / h. And all this with CO2 emissions of 46 g / km. Thanks to its electric autonomy of 42 kilometers in "zero emissions" mode, it benefits in our country from the DGT environmental label Zero.

Logically, everything has a price. The Peugeot 508 Sport Engineered is available from 62,200 euros for the saloon body, having to pay 1,200 euros more if we want to opt for the SW family variant.

Best of all, the French signature of the lion makes it clear that this is just the beginning. More cars tuned by Peugeot Sport and with electrified systems will arrive on the market soon. When and what models will they be? The company has not wanted to advance more details, but we do not doubt that soon we will know much more.
