Compact SUVs seem to be the hottest among the lot of late. Almost every car manufacturer is running behind to develop a compact SUV and Peugeot is not the one behind to join the race. Multiple times tested model which could not make it to the Auto Expo is now known to undergo a transformation to emrge out in an SUV disguise. Well, this doesn’t mean that it will drop its original skin, which is a hatchback through and through. What the car manufacturer seems to adopt is by the sidelines of a hatchback, to tap the growing demand for the compact SUVs in the market. So, we suppose it is not wrong to assume that Peugeot will use the same pricing strategy as Ford EcoSport or Renault Duster which sits in the same price bracket for the proposed Peugeot 208 SUV.

Shunning all the camouflage as a test mule, the Peugeot 508 sedan is the very picture of freshness, which is basically what the consumers in India never give up upon.
The all-diesel engine of 1.6 L powers the car and all ready to take upon any terrain on Indian roads, not to let anybody down especially after the extensive tests the Peugeot Citroen models are put through for unfailing adaptability to Indian conditions. The Peugeot Citroen price is expected to be in the range of Rs 12 lakh and up to rival with Ford Fiesta and Skoda Laura.Peugeot 908 HDi Le Mans sports car: After winning the championship to end up second in the Le Mans car race after Audi R18, the car boasts to carry just 950 kg weight of body and a V8 3.7 L engine pumping out 550 Bhp of top power to explain for its amazing performance.
