The restyled first-generation Peugeot 208 GTi is a compact three-door hot hatch, pairing a small turbocharged petrol engine with a light body to deliver quick, eager performance from an everyday supermini shape.
Every Peugeot 208 GTi engine here is a turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol unit, shown in the 1.6 MT example with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive. That powertrain layout keeps the car light and direct, while the manual transmission lets you choose gears to suit the road.
