Saludos desde Chile amigo, éxito!!!.
What interior ❤️❤️❤️
That*
When are they (are they at all) bringing the Peugeot sport version of this? I would buy that in a heart beat. This is nice, but just too slow
The 508 pse is coming 😉
@@annekrank7176 better be! I would love the wagon version
Interior looks amazing. Well done
I drove this car last year as a rental when i was in Melbourne. Literally one of the best cars i have ever driven. I have VW GTI, 330i, Mazda 6…the ride on this thing with 19in wheels was very composed and stable at the same time. Engine power never felt lacking, and the car was very quiet on the road. Aussie speed limit of 110kph does not do this car justice. It was difficult not to exceed that number since the car behaved very very well. 100kph felt like 60 in most other cars. Steering was fantastic, very direct, and interior quality was exceptional (even for this rental car). Shame it did not have the panoramic sunroof.
Looks good, what I find impressive it the low weight of 1385kg which is very impressive for a modern 2021 midside to large sedan/fastback with such modern safety requirements and trim level this car has.
The 100-0 breaking time/distance and negative accelation g-force seem to reflect this too.
Given it grip, wheelbase and track dimetions for it's weight it seems like this would be quite a competent handeling vechile on a B road, not overly powerful or sporty feeling but the type of normal appearing vechile they you can just keep pushing higher corner speeds without complaining where the limits are much higher then one may suspect.
Peugeot are one of the few manufacturers who are trying to bring out models that weigh less than the outgoing model.
How can 1.4 tonnes and 225bhp be so slow though?!
@@AR-zr1om by the looks of it, tall gearing, fwd and and a traction control that wasn't (or couldn't be) turned off.
That anti slip regulation looks annoying as fk
3:26 i kinda like that engine sound
Power to weight ratio is decent so what's holding it back, the transmission?
EGR
That’s what I was wondering
Probably the factory tune to protect the transmission etc. Reducing torque in certain rev ranges/loads.
Peugeot 508 aracım olduğu için Allah'a şükür. Teşekkürler. 🍀
Abi nasıl aldın? yani ne iş yapıyorsun
Why so slow for the power to weight ratio🤔
2003 accord euro manual weighs the same, has 25 kw and 77nm less, yet does 0-100 in the same time. 🧐
Was expecting mid to high 6 seconds
I own that car and I can say that the gearbox is pretty slow at least
The car in the video have 8 gears. Having more gears is an advantage when it comes to keep the engine running on a narrower rev band which returns better fuel economy and is more efficient on rolling accelerations while it's a disadvantage on a standing start. I would think the accord reach 100 km on the second gear while this one surely in 3rd. An addtional gear change is a huge disadvantage in this exercise. After all, who cares about 0-100????? Do you take off full throttle from the lights and plan to gain seconds there??
I am pretty sure that the car tested would have better acceleration figures with a 5 or 6 spd transmission. The purpose of having 8 gears is just for optimization of fuel consumption. Otherwise, it does not really need 8 gears with 224 hp and 1345 kg. I drove a Saab 9-5 aero for years that had 250 hp and 1500 kg. 5 gears were doing fine.
With that kind of power/weight ratio, 5 or 6 gears at most are fine to pull the best performances ( acceleration let's say). More gears is for fuel economy.
Some interesting comparison to Mazda 6 2.5t with172kw/420nm
0-60:
508:4.08
Mazda: 3.42
0-100:
508:8.27
Mazda:7.16
60-110:
508:5.25
Mazda:5.17
So in brief 508 is pretty mediocre to start from 0 but 60 to 110 is quite respectable
It literally have 50HP more for 1 shitty second dude LMAO
Nice looking car.
Think I'll wait for the Sonata N Line. Is it just me that struggles with the backwards tacho?
Peugeot 💪.
I don’t understand how 225bhp in a car this size can be so slow it’s only 5bhp less than the octavia vrs and that’s 1.5 seconds faster
I'm trying to get some help in buying a new car but this shows up in your website: Error establishing a database connection
Not a good start for reliability issues, when the badging has already fallen off...
The "T" letter? Indeed
Just another French shitbox!
@@MrFister84 Still better than another australian shitbox lol
Guess it just wasn't put on it. I see no glue leftovers.
Lets make 508 coupe!
8spd auto, 1.4t, 165kW but 0-100 in 8.2s?
A 14yr old Nissan Maxima with 170kW, 100kg heavier with a CVT is 1s faster to 100 when using a GPS timer..
Sometimes I wonder what manufactuers benchmark their vehicles against, because this drivetrain is inefficient as hell or they tuned the car's peak power/torque at points, rather than broadly spreading it throughout the rev range.
Even a VS Commodore 3.8 ecotec is just as quick. They weigh the same, have the same torque, while having 18kw less than the 508.
Im starting to think Peugeot lied about how heavy this 508 is. It performs like a 1.7 tonne sedan.
Even carsales list the 0-100 time as 8.2 sec for the 508
@@fakenews3676 this weight of 1385 KG is dry weight, this car with this engine with all fluids weights 1520kg, in fact this car is light to today standards but he need to be faster to 225 HP who Peugeot claims...
@@fakenews3676 EU homologation say 1655kg when ready to drive.
I am not in defense of the 508, but it shifts from 1st to 2nd very early (5.2k) and from 2nd to 3rd rather early (5.8k). 3rd - 4th normal at 6.2k ! I remember from way back when I had my gen2 MR2, if I did't shift into 2nd right before the limiter, I wouldn't get good numbers. I assume shifting 1st/2nd and 2nd/3rd at ~6k, would result in 7.x sec times.
What’s the go with the reverse Rpm gauge.. it would do my head in looking down and see the needle go backwards while your accelerating.
Yeah it drove me nuts as well
That rpm gauge though🤣
Looks good, decent spec on paper, 0:53 - Oh that's right, it's a Peugeot
Could you test more electric vehicles ?? Thanks so much !!
Gretings from Barcelona :=)
Пежо могли бы для версии GT и поинтереснее выхлоп настроить.
Thats bad, already missing the T
Soon the steering wheel.
Engine sounds very stressed under load
Why 0-100 km/h is sooo important, I never understand that. However takes off the red lights like if he/she was on a drag race? What's the positive input of a good or lesser 0-100 into the real daily life??? Nothing. Do you think you going to arrive to destination 1 minutes earlier 'cause you gain 2 sec in every lights while your route have 30 of them.???????
Nobody ever said it was "sooo important". It's just interesting (to some people, including us) to see how machinery performs across a comparable standard, a reference point, specifically in terms of acceleration. Obviously 0-100 doesn't tell the full story of any car.
@@PDriveTV Your last sentence is fair. Personally, a half second difference is completely insignificant to me on the 0-100 exercise.
Nobody said it was ":sooo important" using these particular words. The thing is that we do not see any other data published beside the 0-100, that's the real thing.
60 to 100 , 80 to 120, 60 to 120 , 1000m standing start ????? Nothing. the 0-100 is not important in itself but that's the only data furnished and people make use of it to compare cars , that's the issue.
@@ssssssss6889 Fair enough. We do test and publish data regarding 60-110km/h, 1/4 mile, and 100-0 braking.
@@PDriveTV the "aura" of the 0-100 is not questioned just to the channel owner. That's also and rather to the general public. Why do we see so much 0-100 comments in comments?
👍
60k+ when on roads are included... jeepers...
моя мечта!!!
Вот согласен, 508 новый получился просто шикарно, выглядит на все 100, жаль, что он у нас не продается, составил бы отличную конкуренцию здешним седанам в этом классе)
I've never seen these on the road so they must be selling in very low numbers probably a matter of time until Peugeot pulls the pin in Australia insufficient numbers like Holden.For that money U can get a entry level Kia sting 330s V6 proper performance car
Peugeot don't sell there cars every where in the world and i think peugeot didn't sell in Australia and they just started recently
Plenty of 508 in The Netherlands
💯💯💯
looks great, sounds tragic....
Sounds like my roomba
"1/4 mile: 15.98 @ 149.4km/h"
There is something wrong here! Too much speed for that low time.
May be 139.4km/h?
This speed (149.4 km/h) corresponds to a time of 15 low's.
You're right, it is quite a high trap speed for that time. Maybe good aerodynamics played a part?
Here's a snapshot of some of the results from the Vbox: performancedrive.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/2020-Peugeot-508-GT-Vbox-result.jpg
I don't know, but it seems like power is reduced in the low gears. Full power seems to come after a certain speed or gear, meaning it is disproportionately quicker after a certain speed. I noticed it shfits very earls from 1st to 2nd and early from 2nd to 3rd. I remember something that Mercedes did something similar with the W211 320 cdi. It had reduced torque in 1st gear to not overly stress the drivetrain, but don"t quote me on that.
@@PDriveTV What drive mode was active during the testing?
@@Abszurdista-fatalista We tried all modes (we always do), although we can't quite remember what mode achieved the best results in this case.
This car could sale only if it comes with:
Better handling
Better Powertrain
And fair price tag
Under Stellaris, this car platform is to be recycled and used by FIAT, Chrysler or Alfa aside Citroën? A 163kW Magna sounds more raunchy and sprint as hard if not harder!
@@bens6674 I also don't trust these highly strung little engines. Will stick with my 380. We are dinosaurs. Lol.
@@mvnorsel6354 They really don't have a chance here in Europe. Go for downsizing and be a king in it, use hybrid systems or go full EV.
Peugeots Puretech engines 1.2 and 1.6l engines are pretty good. It won't last as long as a non turbo engine by idk Toyota, Hond, Nissan or Chrysler but it should be good for 250.000km or maybe a little more.
2020 accord with 190 hp and 1500 kgs has a 0-100 tym of 8 seconds. With less weight and more hp still this car underperformed
That RPM dial looks very odd in reverse......fails
kinda slow , an f30 320d with 184 hp does about 7.3-7.5, and about the same weight. A second faster and 40 hp less. It's a shame, having such a beautiful sporty looking car, the 508 makes something like an audi a5 look boring. But the french have some weird ass engines, small and underpowered, and even when properly powered (on paper), they just don't deliver, as shown here . This car also comes with a 1.2 130hp engine which I think is quite embarassing for such a car
1,6 l with 224 hp ? Why ?
That's all you need.
this car not for racing
Give it about 200kw and I'll be interested
*kW
1.6 motor 😭
I think you should stick to cars people actually buy
Weak acceleration
Am I the only one who think it's so expensive WTF it's Peugeot
Kia k5 🥰
Sounds really bad
Wtf 8.2sec, my Audi A3 1.4l with 110kw/250nm can do 7.9sec lol
62k for a front wheel drive, 8 second to 100 car, no thanks.
The 1.6 thp its a bad engine ! Fiability 0
Les premieres générations étaient fragile, mais aujourd'hui il est tout à fait fiable
Weak engine
Damn thats so slow
1st
... of the idiots with no other life achievement
Ugly car, awful sound, slow as f#%k. Why would anyone buy this? Instrument cluster looks ancient too even though it’s digital.
damn my 1.5 honda accord is faster than this endless money pit ;D

. NOT, NOT, NOT ... Peuge-NOT.

Try saying something more relevant once in a while instead of constantly repeating yourself like like a simpleton who can’t think of anything else to say...
1385 kg 225 bg 0 to 100 8.2 sec slow as turtle 🐢
My old V40 152 hp 1479 kg 0 to 100 7.7 sec 🤣 lol
All other tests show 7.2 seconds
wow only 7.7 that really slow. 🐢
@@pap_chr5063 Peugeot always understating their acceleration figures as usual.
