Peugeot 408 Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2010–2017) — First Generation
The first-generation Peugeot 408 is a compact sedan built around family practicality, offering a roomy cabin, a generous boot and a choice of engines suited to both city commuting and longer highway trips.
Each Peugeot 408 engine falls into one of two families: gasoline units, which are quieter and cheaper to service, and diesels, which pull strongly from low revs and reward high-mileage drivers with better economy. Transmission choices pair with the drivetrain, so compare a specific car's gearbox before deciding.
