Peugeot unveils the new 308 CC

First released in 2009, the 308 CC has become a worthy successor of the 207 and 307 CC series. The 308 CC facelift captures the independent spirit and an unbridled celebration of the open road.

The refurbished Peugeot 308 CC sports a refined exterior, outfitted with a smaller front grille and piano black front bumper finish. Equipped with energy-saving LED Daytime Running Lights and Automatic Swivelling Xenon Headlights, the front headlights are set in black housing and the foglights of the new 308 CC have been redesigned for a sportier look.

In both its coupe and cabriolet configuration, the 308 CC offers four proper seats and a high level of comfort in its interior space. The one-piece front seats are ergonomically designed to be well-fitting and provide unparalleled comfort, while the rear seats are sculpted to be snug and cosy.

The 308 CC’s passenger compartment was designed in the purest tradition of top-end cabriolets, with careful attention lavished on every little detail; a white dial-equipped instrument panel reminiscent of the world of watchmaking, choice of three leather upholstery colours, visible seat stitching and a black lacquer finished central panel.

Its advanced direct injection twin-scroll turbocharged 16-valve twin camshaft engine is paired with an Aisin 6-speed Tiptronic System Porsche automatic gearbox to deliver high performance of 156hp and 240Nm of torque from 1,600 – 4,000 rpm, comparable to that of a Cat B (>1.6 L) Vehicle.

In addition to having a superb drive and torque response, the 308 CC also meets the stringent EURO 5 emissions standard and is extremely fuel-efficient with a Combined EC Cycle of 13.0km/litre.
