The Peugeot i-Cockpit in the new Peugeot 308 also contributes towards the feeling of safety on board, thanks to its small steering wheel, designed for increased driver control, and a head-up instrument panel, ensuring that the driver sees important information at a glance.

Thanks to the ergonomics of the touchscreen, controls and vehicle settings are easy to access and intuitive to use.

The new Peugeot 308 is now available to order with prices starting from €18,990, plus dealer delivery. The car has a five-year warranty offer.
