    Yes you are correct, this car is way to slow, it struggles to get to 246kph, totally useless for us here in the UK where more roads are having their speed limits reduced to 32kph from 48kph and motorways have a max speed of 112.5kph.
    I think I'll consider a used bugatti instead.

      Because people are stupid and can't understand that it is not every manufacturer's goal to go 0-100 in 3 secs and have a top speed of 300km/h.
      They expect every car that looks sporty to have supercar like 0-100 and top speed.
      Can't lie, a fast car is always pleasant but people expect brands that are not even premium to put up big numbers.
      peugeot never claimed they were making a stupidly fast car.
      225hp is enough for any road or hill even with 5 people in the car.

That's pushing it pretty hard man to be honest, don't know what you're expecting and the comment you made about the ambience mode is ridiculous, take the car out of boost mode and you won't hear the acoustic engine noise, and if you want those dials you seemed to like just deactivate the ambience and select your colour scheme.

    I tested the iCockpit in the 508 and I love it! (I'm 1,86m btw)
    That's literally the best driving position I ever had in a car. Yes the steering wheel is a bit lower than on most cars, but it feels a lot more natural to me. I actually struggle with most car as I can't go low enough without obstructing the dials, no issues with the 508.
    I learned to drive with an Aygo were the dials move with the steering wheel, so I could set the steering wheel in the most confortable way and know that I'm used to it, I struggle with most cars.
    The truth is that race cars have the dials over a low steering wheel!
    I also tested the engine, if it doesn't fit a sport car, on a GT like this 508 it's actually really nice and I love the gearbox. More the a DSG in town (even if the DSG is better on a track but that's not the real world).

      @@Henry_Jr_Watsson Of course you can lower the steering wheel in other cars as well. The problem is that in many cars you can't lower it too much because then you can't see the whole speedometer. Take the VW Up for example. If I lower the steering wheel how I like, I can't see the speed range from about 70km/h to 160km/h. The way the VW designed the instrument cluster is too high up so as soon as you lower the steering wheel, the upper rim of the wheel blocks your view in the above mentioned speed range. Such ergonomic fuck ups really piss me off. So then, A) I have to raise the driver's seat, which with my 1,92m height is a no go, or, B) I'm forced to keep the steering wheel uncomfortably high. Whoever signed off the Up with such instrument cluster for production should get fired.
      I'd love to have the VW Up as a second car for daily errands. I think it's really cool and has those lovely 3 cylinder engines, especially the 95hp TSI. But then they totally ruin it for me with that stupid instrument cluster. Oh, and no center armrest. Another total flop in my book.
      None of that happens in Peugeot cars. I haven't driven the 508 yet, only the 308 GTI and the 208 with the 82hp engine. But yeah, by the looks of it, especially in the rear, it looks pretty damn cramped. Also, I imagine the rear view visibility is crap. Add to that that there seems to be no rear wiper option. With such flat rear window, that should be standard, and I don't care about how much it spoils the design of the rear hatch. How's rear view visibility in your experience?

      @@herrv1906 Copy paste from my answer to another person : Remember the Bugatti veyron was announced with a top speed of 405 kph. That speed was indeed achieved, on a 8km straight line, with perfect temperature and perfect wind. That's something that would never happen in real conditions but because they achieved it once meant they were able to set it as their top speed. My question is : Why wouldn't the 508 be given a 250 kph top speed if they did it at least once ?

    • @herrv1906

      @@Dipierox Indeed, aerodynamics could explain the trick as the SCx is 0.62 for the 508 while it reaches 0.68 for the 308 GTI. In this setting, he is doing a 4km run slightly downhill.
      For the Bugatti Veyron, as the drag force increases at the square of the speed meaning that at 400 km/h it has to spend 16 times the energy necessary at 100km/h. In the case of the Peugeot here, between 200 (reached easily) and 250 km/h, the difference represents "merely" 50% more drag force to counter.
      No-one does this kind of speeds on a daily basis but I must say that each time that I have the occasion (as I am close to Germany), I do so.

    I am 1,90 and drove the new 508 last week for a day. I think the main problem for most people with finding a good seating position is, that many drivers tend to adjust their backrest to flat back, so that they sit a bit like in a formula racecar, more lying.
    You see that a lot, I guess they think that this sporty or something. I sit a bit more upright with the backrest in a upright position (as the rally drivers tend to do it) and then it is no problem at all. So: I had no problems with the cockpit position.
    And Topspeed? Really? We are talking about Top seep in the year 2018/19? I don't know if thats relevant anymore.

    with the speed, lol : maybe because in Europe it s almost super rare to drive more than 140 ?
    Even in Germany, it is not all highways where you can drive at 250.
    The car just look so great, for an incredible value for the money. So where is the issue ? Ok now, if you put an extra 10K euros maybe you could even improve the speed of the car ... but for what ?
    putting 10K just to say that you gain 10 sec to reach 250 ... and paying extra taxes because Co2 are too high?
    For me, the real downside is : where the full electric version Peugeot?! I want a full electric car too!
