PEUGEOT Australia – Frugal on the fuel but plentiful in features and style, the PEUGEOT 308 GT Hybrid is priced from $48,990 MLP1. Set to land in Q1, 2025 with pre-orders now open.
Power of Allure
After recently announcing its move to bring a whole new line up of hybrid models, PEUGEOT Australia has opened up pre-order of the 308 GT Hybrid.
The 2025 PEUGEOT 308 GT Hybrid is the second model in an ongoing cadence of offerings guided by PEUEGEOT’s global strategy. Meeting the needs of Aussies and the distances needed to travel. This newest PEUGEOT offers the best of both worlds and serves as an example of the brand’s multiple pathways to a new era of electrification in automotive.
The “Power of Allure” design language employed on the 308 GT brings a bold blend of modern styling and sporty visual elements. While its interior offers the latest in technology, including an expansive list of ADAS features and dual display screens (10-inch instrument panel display and infotainment touchscreen display).
With CO2 emissions of just 95g/km2, the 308 GT Hybrid is helping assist in the low-emissions charge. A 0.9kWh battery allows limited electric-only driving as well as significantly boosting the overall efficiency of the car in hybrid mode. Together, engine and the electric motor make 100kW channelled to the front wheels. In addition, thanks to regenerative braking, the battery automatically recharges while driving. Meaning it is also capable of operating more than 50% of the time in 100% zero-emission electric mode.
Delivery great economy
David Owen, General Manager PEUGEOT Australia said the result is a compact hatch that delivers great economy of a hybrid drivetrain without having to ever plug in.
“The new 308 GT Hybrid marks yet another step in PEUGEOT Australia’s advanced approach to bringing a new era of hybrid products to Aussie roads.”
The familiarly styled 308 GT is perfectly primed for those looking to take their next step on the electrification journey. “A highly connected and innovative hatch for the modern, electrified world, the all new PEUGEOT 308 GT Hybrid will play a key role in turning the brand into a Aussie benchmark for new technology as we drive toward electrification.
“In terms of driving behaviour, the finely engineered 308 GT Hybrid strikes a perfect balance between behaviour, comfort. Handling for true driving pleasure and efficiency.”
“The new 308 GT Hybrid offers lower-emissions driving as well as uncompromised quality, safety, and technology. All at a great price that starts at $48,990 MLP1.”
