Entrusted to the expertise of PEUGEOT SPORT engineers, the Concept 508 PEUGEOT SPORT ENGINEERED is derived from the radical PEUGEOT 508 HYBRID sedan. This high performance/low emissions concept delivers exceptional performance, unprecedented on a PEUGEOT with a sharp and athletic stylistic treatment.
