Yay! Our brother Brian is back! Having the video title and thumbnail announce your return goes to show how much of a significant and amazing of an impact you have left on us long-time _Autogefühl_ watchers. Returning like an amazing character that has been gone for so many chapters. It is great to see you again...still expressing your thoughts extremely well, and moving with those short legs and long torso. 😅 Truly giving a unique perspective with your "setup." 😅 But seriously, it has been such a long time, brother. I hope you and your loved ones have been doing well, especially during these tough times of Coronavirus. Stay safe. 💖 Also, rest in peace, Holga. Surely was a great man and member of the team. He will be missed. 😢 Interesting question about hybrids. I guess it kind of depends. I have driven a few hybrids like the 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE, W222 S-Class, and A-Class, and I thought they were incredible. I think it depends on the vehicle I am driving, because a vehicle like the ones mentioned are not geared for performance, nor did they feel significantly heavier. Maybe I did not notice the weight, but I am not as weight-conscience when driving cars like that, and they did not lose control on bumps or road undulations. The A-Class was kind of noticeable, but not at all intrusive. I think it comes down to how well the car is engineered with the battery. Sometimes, they are afterthoughts-or feel like afterthoughts because they aren't developed from the ground up or aren't developed properly at all. It is kind of like when a big engine is shoved into a car, but the car is not further tuned to carry it. For me, whether hybrids are good just depends on the hybrid I am looking at, not all hybrids in general.
I have the older 2017 BMW 225xe plug-in hybrid that in a way used to be similar to what Peugeot used to to offer in the previous generation of their plug-in hybrids. But the BMW dynamics brings it to anther level. With some fatter tires in the back it's really sweet :P
185cm here. was afraid of the driving position but turns out it works perfectly for me too. i raised the seat a bit and lowered the steering wheel and was able to see the display perfectly while still being comfortable
I hate the fact that there is an engine gap. 1.2 130bhp and then you have to step up all the way money wise to a plug-in hybrid. There needs to be 150-180 hp petrol version for this car to compete.
Brian with regards to the HVAC controls, I think you can create a virtual toggle that includes all of your preferred parameters, thus enabling you to put those on in one touch. I agree with you that it would still be better to have physical controls.
I was looking at this or the new golf , im going for the golf a big reason was the choice of engines the golf has loads and a hybrid option, the peugout has got a cool design tho but its not for me
I really enjoyed this presentation. As an American it’s interesting to me how much time was spent discussing function. Seems like we just like how things look in general.
Excellent review and of the dozens out there on newer Peugeot i-Cockpit-equipped vehicles, the clearest and most candid perspective on how body geometry may or may not mesh with the steering/display positions.
I love the fact that both Brian and Thomas are sooo articular and balanced in there analysis to there reviews. I find others to biased against French cars which is rather childish and dishonest to say the least. I absolutely live the SW.
Hi, I'm Brian, welcome to Autogefühl and welcome to the hills just outside of Cannes. We come here to bring you the brand-new Peugeot 308. Now, the predecessor to this car sold over 1.3 million units. So to suggest that this C-segment car is important to Peugeot, might be just a little bit of an understatement. We're going to take a closer look and find out just what they've done to it. There are so many changes that have taken place with this redesign, but I think it's important to mention right at the outset that there are 5 different trim levels: the entry level is the Active, then you have the Allure, the Allure Pack, the GT and the top one of all is the GT Pack. The car that we're driving here today is the GT and that's really important to note because there are some styling differences that are quite significant between the different trim levels. Now, I wanna start here: the 2 key things that immediately leap out at you are of course, this: the badge redesign. Now, if you think this looks slightly familiar, you wouldn't be wrong. But the last time that the lion's head featured by itself without the body was all the way back in the 70s, so this is a very new generation for the Peugeot and that matches this very new looking grille. If you're familiar with the predecessor to the 308, it felt a lot more standard. Now usually, you'd expect the 308 to be competing in the same sort of area as the Ford Focus and maybe the Škoda Octavia along with a wide range of other cars.
Best looking Hatchback ever! Yh front looks futuristic and the back looks good if a little conservative. Love the interior but I wish the back seats had more space!
@@hiiiofficial8306 where do you find that "quality" in a Golf 8? Infotainment is laggy and bugged, pretty much every button is put on an ugly piano black touch tile that collects fingerprints like mad, the ones on the steering wheel tend to have mind on their own, touch sliders for temperature/volume control have no backlight, they even skimped on painting the underside of the bonnet, not mentioning cowl plastics that are all loose, DSG gearbox takes ages to react to a sudden throttle input and it's the only modern car that gave me back pain after 3 hours of driving. I was genuinely shocked how bad the Golf 8 was when I first drove it, especially compared to the Golf 7.5 which I really liked.
In Warranty Direct statistics on warranty time issues the VW Group cars have been soon 20 years almost every year among the worst. PSA cars on the other hand better than Toyota and Honda.
Hello Brian. Have you had the opportunity to drive the 1.5 blue hdi version? I am interested in the noise level compared to the hybrid. Also, is the 1.2 130km version louder inside than the hybrid? Thx and regards from Poland.
Great to see Brian back. Shame about colleagues passing. Touching tribute at the end. I currently have seat leon estate old version and have loved it. Fancy a change though and this is on the radar along with Kia proceed. Leg room not a big issue as passengers all under 5ft 5. It is somewhat of an on going theme though and surprising this version it wasnt given any priority. Interior and exterior just looks interesting to look at. Thanks for excellent review.
The 308 is the only Peugeot I have driven and I was very impressed. French cars as a whole are pretty good, but their residual values are absolutely horrendous - with Peugeots being the best, then again you pay more for them.
over 40 years of driving (with 5 PSA cars and 1 Fiat in service during that span). I have enjoyed every bit of it, residuals were not on my priority list. Bought 2 (25 yr old) ZXs for my young sons and they have been doing 400km trips regularly with them. Buy these PSA cars for driving comfort and pleasure.
Well, if you buy the car and use it until you can't do it anymore, instead of going for a new one every 3 or 5 years, you will save a tonne of money and the residuals become irrelevant. That's what I have been doing for the past 13 years with my Citröen C4 and loving the results. No problems with mechanics, the car is still nice to drive and I saved a lot of money doing that.
