Peugeot is working on a facelifted 508 – and this leaked picture reveals exactly what to expect.
A shallower and larger grille apes the one on the 308 hatch, and the headlights now include a subtle step, just like on the 2008 crossover. A flash of chrome sets off the foglights, as on Peugeot’s many recently revealed models. We haven’t yet got any interior pictures, but we’re expecting it to follow the lead of the 308’s i-Cockpit. That implies a focus on decreasing the amount of buttons by making functions available through a large touchscreen.

There ought to be a few engine changes, including the arrival of Peugeot’s new 1.6 and 2.0 BlueHDi diesels, with the cleanest boasting 70mpg-plus and sub-99g/km CO2 emissions. A 1.2 e-THP petrol is also a possibility, along with an updated HYbrid4 model.
Expect to see full details on the facelifted 508 in June, with a starting price of around £20,000.
