In terms of interior, the new car adopts a digital cockpit design, equipped with a full LCD instrument panel and a centrally controlled 10-inch LCD screen. The upper and lower split central control screen includes a video entertainment system and air conditioning and other functional adjustment panels, coupled with electronic toggling gear levers, the vehicle interior is full of technology. And the design that is biased towards the driver's side is more user-friendly, and it is simpler and more convenient to operate.
In terms of power, the overseas version of the model is equipped with three different powertrain options, namely the 1.2T fuel version, the 1.5T diesel version and the 1.6T+ drive motor plug-in version, and the matching ones are 8AT gearboxes. After the future domestic production, in addition to the diesel version is in doubt, other versions are expected to be continued.

Overall, even compared with Volkswagen Golf and Honda Civic, the performance of the new 308 in product strength is not inferior. In the view of Volkswagen Kanche, after the future listing, if the price of the new 308 is controlled at about 100,000 yuan, it is expected to set off another french car boom.
