Road presence and specific design immediately place the 508 RXH in the world of top of the range all road vehicles. Unique, refined, higher and wider (than a 508 SW), it is also distinguished by a singular visual signature, with its distinctive LED lights visible both day and night, giving an impression of three vertical ‘lion claws’ on each side of its ‘floating’ grille, the style of which is even more striking.
Equipped with a 2.0-litre HDi HYbrid4 drive train, a Peugeot world first in the 3008 HYbrid4, the diesel-electric drive unit in the 508 RXH extends driving pleasure and freedom to travel anywhere on all roads. With a maximum power of 200bhp, four-wheel drive and maximum torque of 332lb ft, the 508 RXH has been designed to adapt to all uses, in a variety of conditions. Furthermore, it opens up new perspectives in the segment, offering a 100% electric mode (Zero Emissions), ideal for driving in town and for reducing consumption in the Combined Cycle to 67.2 mpg, with emissions of 109g/km of CO2.
After the launch of the 3008 HYbrid4 later this year, the Peugeot Marque will continue its innovative strategy, combining driving sensation and advanced environmental developments by extending HYbrid4 technology to other models. The 508 RXH will be unveiled as a world premiere at the Frankfurt International Motor Show in September 2011, and will be on sale in Spring 2012.
