The old French mid-size car "Peugeot 508" is popular but not popular. How is this car?

The protagonist of this article is a French mid-size car that netizens call a popular but not popular French mid-size car. It is an old model? Peugeot 508, a 2.0L model that was launched in 2014. Now according to the condition of the car , the market price is around 70,000 to 80,000, which is obviously more affordable than Accord and Camry. How is this car? Let’s analyze it:

The length, width and height dimensions of the car are: 4826mm, 1855mm, 1465mm, and the wheelbase is 2815mm (there are slight differences between versions).

From the outside, this car is a mid-sized car after all. Given its dimensions, it does look quite big and slender, with a sense of class. The white paint also makes him look... Nice fashion sense.

Although the configuration of the low-end models is relatively low, there are still some careful thoughts in the design of the front and rear light groups.

The interior design of the car seemed relatively ordinary at the time, and it looks even more ordinary now. It is either old-fashioned, or it just feels that there is no design and it is relatively simple.

Including functional areas such as the center console, they look like they have no quality, and there is relatively little storage space.

The leather-made seats used in the model in this article seem to be of good quality, and the comfort level is about the same, which is normal. In terms of seating space, the space of this car is quite satisfactory. Speaking of Magotan and Accord, they are almost the same as Lavida and Civic.

The trunk volume is 475 liters, which is enough.

In terms of power, the model in this article uses a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum horsepower of 147 horsepower and a maximum torque of 200 Nm. The parameters are now quite satisfactory. After all, today’s small-displacement turbines are It is getting more and more powerful. It is equipped with a 6AT gearbox from Aisin. When the body weight is more than 1.5 tons, the zero-to-hundred acceleration time we measured is more than 12 seconds, which is a relatively slow acceleration performance. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology The fuel consumption is 8.4 liters per 100 kilometers, and our actual measurement is similar, maybe a little higher. If you are interested, you can interact with us in the comment area. Moreover, the technology of this powertrain is relatively mature, and the quality stability in the later period is not much. question.

In daily driving, the throttle adjustment of this car is not very sensitive, like that of Japanese and Korean cars. Compared with Japanese and Korean cars, it is more stable. It is better for novices who are just getting started. Control, you can find the rhythm of driving, and the feeling of normal driving is quite smooth. The action of the gearbox and the self-priming engine are very good, but after all, the displacement and parameters are there, the acceleration performance in the middle and rear sections is average. It's average, and when driving intensely or when rapid acceleration is required, the response speed of this car's gearbox is indeed slow.

In terms of chassis, this car uses MacPherson struts in the front and multi-link independent suspension in the rear. When driven daily, this suspension feels very different from the German and Japanese models. , now compared to the lightness of the traditional Japanese model and the calmness of the traditional German model, it feels very flexible, the steering and the body feel are very consistent, and you can find the driving feeling of participating in driving in daily driving, but, for me personally It is said that this kind of driving experience is too sensitive, and it will make you easily tired after driving for a long time, because the road conditions, especially when the road conditions are not good, you need to constantly correct the steering.

Final summary: For daily use, this car is large in size, looks classy in appearance, light and flexible in chassis, and feels engaging when driving. However, the configuration is average, the power is average, and the fuel consumption is normal. The interior design is ordinary and lacks a sense of class. The storage space in the car, especially the seating space, has no advantage in the same class. Personally, this car is quite average, including driving it. It is not as good as netizens said, except for the brand. , this is probably the reason why this car is not popular in the second-hand car market, but it is also because of this that its second-hand car is very cost-effective.

Do you think this car is a good car?
