It’s been just over two years since Peugeot lifted the curtain on its 508 PSE. A sporty and hormonal version of its top-class large sedan, which then ushered in the brand’s new high-performance badge. This variant features a specific body color as well as exclusive aesthetic elements such as green PSE logos and aerodynamic elements. On board, the sedan also benefits from a specific and sportier finish, while it offers a motorization that is reserved only for it. Then it’s a plug-in hybrid configuration 360 horsepower.

Removal?

It combines a 1.6-litre petrol engine with two electric motors, which then distribute the power between the four wheels. This is the same power unit that was under the hood of the DS 7 and DS 9. But while this variant was launched with much fanfare, it ultimately did not meet the expectations, especially since it is very expensive, with a base price of €72,570. . However, in a few days the sedan is no longer displayed in the configurator brand Which involves deletion pure and simple, while success is not really a rendezvous. But don’t get me wrong, it really isn’t.

Inevitable return

Our colleagues from Karadizak indeed contacted Peugeot who said that the 508 PSE will still be offered in the catalog in a facelifted version that will arrive in the summer. Then it will benefit from a new design, but we don’t know yet if its engine will be developed. Let me remind you, approximately 2000 copies were sold during the last year, which is still quite a few.
