The Peugeot engine also returns a claimed 4.2 l/100km combined and has emissions of just 110 g/km which places it in tax band A3 (€190).

The new Access Plus Edition benefits from the addition of extra equipment that includes front fog lights, alloy wheels & bluetooth which would normally add up to over €1,000. In addition to these, the Peugeot 308 also comes with standard equipment like air conditioning, ESP, six airbags, a full size spare wheel and two ISOFIX child seat points. The Peugeot 308 Access Plus will be priced at €21,495 plus dealer related charges.

The Peugeot 308 Active Urban edition is the second model to be announced. This will include all of the spec that the Access Plus will have as well as reverse parking sensors and electric folding mirrors.
