Since its introduction, the PEUGEOT 408 has been one of PEUGEOT’s strongest design statements. A fastback silhouette, showcasing a body concept new to the market, combining dynamism, driving enjoyment, and everyday comfort. Its spectacular styling is a particularly powerful expression of PEUGEOT Design.
The new PEUGEOT 408 is positioned towards the top of the C-segment. A segment in which PEUGEOT offers a remarkably complete and varied range including a hatchback (308), an estate (308 SW), and two SUVs (3008 and 5008), all available with electric and electrified powertrains.
The new PEUGEOT 408 breaks the mould. Its avant-garde modernity has won admirers around the world and continues to prove itself as one of PEUGEOT’s most internationally renowned models.
More than ever, the new PEUGEOT 408 has been designed to WOW. It powerfully reiterates the unique character of this “made in Mulhouse” model, which proudly positions itself as a global ambassador for PEUGEOT’s French charisma and creativity.
FRENCH-STYLE CHARISMA WITH UNIQUE ELEGANCE
With the 408, PEUGEOT is making a bold statement by stepping off the beaten track. That ambition is echoed today with the new PEUGEOT 408, whose distinctive fastback design—defined by sharply sculpted lines—is further enhanced by sophisticated detailing on the car’s front and rear.
WOW, Certified!
Exclusive Lighting Signatures, Front and Rear. The front of the new PEUGEOT 408 introduces an innovative and spectacular interpretation of PEUGEOT’s iconic lighting signature.
The three signature claws are expressed through three slim, slanted LED strips strips that also scroll as indicators and are connected across the entire width of the car by an elegant LED strip, positioned above the illuminated central badge (on GT and GT Premium).
At the rear, the new PEUGEOT 408 is the first model in the range to feature illuminated PEUGEOT lettering, surrounded by a gloss black décor and seamlessly integrated into a clear lens strip that spans the car’s width. At both ends, all new PEUGEOT 408 models now feature the premium lighting signature with three slanted LED claws.
Piercing Gaze: PEUGEOT designers worked to ensure nothing disrupts the piercing gaze of the new PEUGEOT 408 or the spectacular visual effect of its new front light signature. The headlamps have been positioned lower in the bumper, away from the signature lights. Their presence is discreet, composed of two ultra-thin stacked modules—one for dipped beam (above), the other for main beam (below). When off, these modules are almost invisible thanks to their integration into a glossy black insert.
The headlights feature PEUGEOT FULL LED technology on Allure and Allure Business trims and PEUGEOT Matrix LED technology on GT, and GT Exclusive trims.
The headlights feature PEUGEOT FULL LED technology on Allure and Allure Business trims and PEUGEOT Matrix LED technology on GT, and GT Exclusive trims.
To preserve the elegance of the new PEUGEOT 408’s look, the proximity radar is also hidden behind the PEUGEOT badge—completely invisible from the outside while enhancing safety.
A Redesigned Front for an Even Stronger Stance
The new PEUGEOT 408 boasts a reworked grille and bumper. Enhanced by sophisticated 3D sculpting and increased use of black, combining glossy and matte finishes for an elegant effect.
The lower bumper adopts a trapezoidal shape that further emphasises the car’s strong stance and character. This effect is optimised by colour treatments that combine glossy black elements with body-coloured parts for a smooth transition to the bodywork.
A Reaffirmed Flair
Innovative Wheel Design: a PEUGEOT 408 Signature. Continuing the disruptive wheel designs introduced at the launch of the PEUGEOT 408, the hybrid and plug in hybrid models are available with exclusive 19” Adakite wheels with geometric shapes contrasting with the circular form of the rim. Their enlarged, diamond-cut surfaces enhance their visual presence within the car’s highly sculpted profile.
These new 19” wheels come standard on Allure and GT trims with Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid engines (Plug in Hybrid GT Premium, receiving 20” Monolithe wheels).
A Striking New Colour Showcasing the PEUGEOT 408’s Contours. The new PEUGEOT 408 debuts an exclusive Flare Green body colour. Bold and sophisticated, it offers spectacular shade variations depending on light levels—shifting towards bright yellow in sunlight and deep green in shadow. This unique effect highlights the PEUGEOT 408’s highly sculpted bodywork with its numerous surface variations and dynamic volumes.

Pure Electric Thrills with the New PEUGEOT E-408

This delivers a range that meets the needs of most C-segment customers, who drive an average of 28 miles per day, according to industry research. It’s equally capable to explore further afield on longer trips, when required.
The PEUGEOT E-408’s onboard charger supports up to 120 kW, enabling a 20% to 80% battery recharge in just around 30 minutes.

Premium Features for First-Class Comfort
Firmly positioned at the top end of the C-segment, the new PEUGEOT 408 offers a wealth of features to enhance the enjoyment of travel.
To maintain a healthy cabin environment, the PEUGEOT 408 offers AQS (Air Quality System) and Clean Cabin. Both are standard on GT Premium and an option on GT. The AQS system continuously monitors incoming air and can automatically activate air recirculation.
