The GT Line trim also has GT Line badges on the grille, front wings and tailgate, along with red PEUGEOT lettering front and rear.
The Peugeot 208 GT Line gets a sporty interior with aluminium PEUGEOT door sill finishers, aluminium pedals, gloss black door handles with red line at the front, black and red sports seats with red stitching, red stitching on the door panels and gear lever gaiter/grip, flat-bottomed, leather sports steering wheel, red stitching and a satin chrome insert and black seat belts with distinctive red line.

Peugeot 308 R HYbrid concept
The Peugeot 308 HYbrid concept is a performance plug-in hybrid hatchback. Its powertrain comprises the 1.6-litre THP 270 S&S petrol engine and two electric motors, which together produce 500 hp and 730 Nm of torque. 0-100 is clocked in under 4.0 seconds, and the car has an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h.
Using only electric power, the car can touch a speed of 100 km/h. Despite such astounding performance figures, the performance car's CO2 emission is just 70 g/km.
