It’s available with three trim levels – Active, Allure and GT-Line.

Prices for the Allure start from £16,250, or £25,050 for the e-208. Standard equipment includes a seven-inch touchscreen, autonomous emergency braking, automatic climate control and LED daytime running lights.

Allure grade adds 17-inch alloy wheels, leather-effect upholstery, a digital instrument cluster and LED rear lights, with prices starting from £18,850 or £26,250 for the e-208.

David Peel, managing director of Peugeot UK, said: “The all-new Peugeot 208 represents the first step in Peugeot’s vision of providing our customers with the ‘power of choice’ i.e. ‘choose your Peugeot, choose your powertrain.’

“With class-leading levels of technology, sharp styling and a distinctive driving experience, we expect the all-new 208 and the all-new e-208 to challenge the norm in this sector of the market.”

First deliveries of the new models are expected at the start of 2020.
