Peugeot returns to the world of the GTi with the launch of the Peugeot 308 GTi, a sporty hatchback for a new era: enjoyable for day to day driving and environmentally-friendly. Available exclusively as a 5 door model only, it combines a modern synthesis of versatility and driveability.
Sporty driving in step with the times
The Peugeot 308 GTi has a sporty nature that is in tune with our current times:
- well-heeled athleticism for day-to-day driving enjoyment and a high level of onboard comfort at all engine speeds but, stopping short of being a specialist vehicle, yet still able to offer real excitement when its "driver" asks more of it.
- environmentally-friendly, combining good levels of performance with fuel consumption of only 6.9 litres/100 km for 159 g/km of CO2.
The uncompromising sports credentials of the 308
The enthusiast drivers who will buy the 308 GTi will of course also benefit from an exclusive and sporty vehicle, but also from all of the qualities that have made the five-door 308 hatchback a success, in particular:
* High levels of comfort and convenience when inside the car, thanks to its semi-tall architecture ensuring exceptional interior brightness, visibility (a glazed surface area of up to 4.86 m2) and interior space, not forgetting its stylish and elegant fascia panel, its build quality and its distinctive acoustics…
* Maximum safety thanks to its structure and high-performance means of restraint (5 stars in the EuroNCAP 2009 test), and also thanks to the “Peugeot Connect SOS” system which pinpoints the vehicle’s location in the event of an accident (optional at only 290 € or standard with WIP Com 3D).
In France, the 308 GTi will be launched on the10th June, priced at 26,900 €. Detailed technical characteristics

ENGINE
A new 1.6-liter THP 147 kW (200 bhp) under the hood of the Peugeot 308 RCZ Coupe Sport GTI and effective in every sense of the word of the generous torque and power, fuel economy and low CO2 emissions, and in full compliance with emission standards Euro 5.
Meeting these environmental issues a priority for this machine and is the hallmark of modern and responsible approach …
With a maximum torque of 275 Nm (from 1700 rpm to 4500 rpm) and maximum power of 147 kW (5500-6800 rpm), 308 GTI benefits from training and equipment of the highest order of acceleration (80-120 km / h in 6.7 seconds in fifth gear , from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.7 s, 1000 m standing start in 27.8 s. ..) while its fuel consumption is 6.9 km litres/100 in combined cycle (159 g / km CO2).
To achieve this result, the engine 1598 cm3 four-cylinder combination – world premiere – all the latest technology:
* VHF (Turbo-charged with high pressure) with the twin-scroll turbocharger for a quick response and engine performance at very low speeds and gasoline direct injection to ensure optimal fuel consumption,
* VTi (Variable Valve Timing and injection) with variable intake valve lift combined with variable intake and exhaust camshafts, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Precise and responsive steering
In keeping with the Marque’s recognised know-how in this field, the steering ensures remarkable precision and is highly responsive, factors underpinning the car’s excellent driveability. The electro-hydraulic power steering (with an output of 650 W depending on circumstances) varies according to vehicle speed, speed of rotation of the steering wheel and steering fluid temperature. This allows for continuous adaptation of the power supplied and facilitates manoeuvres at low speed.
