When buying a family compact car, everyone will take the price and stable quality as a hard car purchase requirement, after all, for our working class, spending more than 100,000 yuan to buy a car is not a small amount, while improving the quality of our travel, the low cost of car maintenance in the later period is king. Today, I will introduce a 100,000-level boutique joint venture car, a compact car from the French camp - Peugeot 408.
The official guidance price remains between 119,700 and 159,700 yuan, of which the starting price is less than 120,000 yuan, which is undoubtedly in line with the car purchase budget of most of our consumers. So the price is close to the people can satisfy us, how is the actual product performance? In view of this problem, let's take a comprehensive analysis of the Peugeot 408 with you.
Speaking of Peugeot's design, I believe many friends still like it. Although this Peugeot 408 is a compact car, it is not a product of high-end level, but the shape and texture are not sloppy at all. Among them, the full LED lion's eye headlights and dot matrix style forward grille have played a good finishing effect, especially for young consumers, this front face shape is still very in line with their appetite.
Looking at the side of the body, the length, width and height reached 4750/1820/1488mm, the wheelbase was 2730mm, leading the body size of the same level, and the application of the leaping three-dimensional waist line made the Peugeot 408 present a cross-grade grade and design aesthetic. In addition, the 17-inch diamond-cut aluminum alloy rims also create a good fashion and sports atmosphere.
As for the rear part of the car, the Peugeot 408 also presents a full youthful and sporty atmosphere. After all, young people have become the main force of automobile consumption, and high-value modeling has become the key and foundation to impress such consumers. In addition to the echo effect of the LED lion's claw style taillight combination with the front lion's eye headlights, the outside of the taillights is also treated in black, combined with the lower dynamic chrome-plated double exhaust tailpipe, the visual effect is very good.
In the interior part, the simple and practical central control layout is very convenient for daily operation. Of course, the biggest difference from other competitors in the same class is that the interior materials are thicker. The original ecological and environmentally friendly soundproof cotton ensures the tranquility of the whole vehicle, and the TVOC environmental protection interior material also makes it reach the level of luxury cars. HLE's high-strength body structure and vehicle use 70% high-strength steel, the highest strength up to 1500Mpa, which can also be seen that Peugeot 408 has high safety requirements, and also reflects Peugeot's people-oriented safety concept.
In terms of configuration, in addition to the conventional basic configuration of this level, the intelligent keyless system, the full LCD instrument combination and the addition of high-end configurations such as front and rear parking radar, panoramic image, and City Park intelligent parking system have made this Peugeot 408 reach the same level as the size.
Thanks to the superior body size, the interior seating space of the Peugeot 408 is also a commendable selling point. The 174cm tall experiencer sits in the back row, has nearly three punches of space in the legs, and is also equipped with a central armrest in the middle of the rear row, which also ensures the comfort of the back seat. With a 455L trunk volume, rear seats that support 2/3-3/1 reclining, and 22 storage spaces in the car, the Peugeot 408's practicality has reached the leading level of its class.
In the hardware part, Peugeot 408 also offers two engines of 1.2T and 1.6T to meet the needs of different consumers. The important thing to say here is that these two sets of engines can be described as a great success, which has won the engine award for many years in a row, and it is called the golden power of Peugeot by many friends. According to the test drive 1.6T version, there are 4 driving modes to meet the needs of different car scenarios. After the turbo intervention, thanks to the engine technology and good matching with the gearbox, it can give us a strong power output. The most critical point is that the peugeot 408, which is mostly used at home, has also injected a lot of sports elements, which are embodied in the paddle shifters that are equipped with sports symbols and suspension tuning that is full of toughness, movement and comfort.
On the whole, as one of Peugeot's volume models, the reason why peugeot 408 can be sought after by more and more consumers, aside from the basic worry-free and durable quality, is inevitably related to its own unique design highlights and driving texture. Anyway, spending more than 100,000 yuan can not buy a perfect model, but peugeot 408 has achieved near perfection in all aspects, and it is precisely because of this that it has become a representative of the 100,000-level boutique joint venture car.
