The Peugeot 308 1.6 EGS is a three-door hatchback in the model's first generation, and its automated gearbox shapes much of how the car behaves in ordinary use.

Type of boost?
A turbocharger or supercharger compresses the air entering the engine so a smaller engine can produce more power. Naturally aspirated engines draw air without a compressor. Glossary entry
Turbo
Type of drive?
Which wheels receive power: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive can send power to every wheel for extra traction. Glossary entry
FWD
Bore and stroke?
The diameter of a cylinder (bore) and the distance the piston travels inside it (stroke). Together they determine the displacement of the engine. Glossary entry
75 × 88.3 mm
Engine capacity?
The total volume swept by all pistons inside the cylinders, usually stated in cubic centimetres or litres. Larger displacement often means more power but higher consumption. Glossary entry
1560 cm³
Engine location
Front, transverse
Number of gears?
How many fixed forward ratios a gearbox offers. More gears can improve economy and refinement; continuously variable transmissions have no fixed steps. Glossary entry
6
Maximum power?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
109 hp
Maximum power, kw?
A unit of engine or motor output. One metric horsepower is about 0.735 kilowatts. Peak power is normally reached at high engine speed. Glossary entry
80 kW
Compression ratio?
The ratio between the largest and smallest volume of a cylinder as the piston moves. Higher ratios improve efficiency but may require higher-octane fuel. Glossary entry

Engine and Transmission
In a three-door hatchback of this layout, a robotised gearbox uses actuators to work the clutch and select gears, briefly interrupting the diesel engine's torque at each shift before reconnecting it to the driven wheels.
Drivetrain and Everyday Driving
Front-wheel drive sends torque through the same tyres that steer, so moving away depends on the contact patches ahead. On a wet or loose surface, those front tyres can spin before the car gains momentum.
Body and Practicality
A hatchback's boot shares one volume with the cabin rather than sitting behind a fixed bulkhead, so a bag left in the back can often be reached over the rear seat instead of requiring a stop and a tailgate opening.
