Peugeot 208 Business & Personal Car Leasing Offers
The second-generation Peugeot 208 was unveiled in 2019, introducing a bold new look, upgraded technology, and the option of the brand’s first fully electric supermini, the E-208. Already one of the UK’s best-selling small cars, the 208 combines striking design with everyday practicality and efficient performance.
In 2023, Peugeot gave the 208 a major update with new mild-hybrid engines, a fresh exterior design featuring Peugeot’s signature ‘three-claw’ LED lights, and an upgraded interior with their latest i-Cockpit digital displays. The E-208 was also enhanced with a larger 51kWh battery, extending its range to an impressive 268 miles (WLTP).
As of August 2025, the E‑208 now officially qualifies for the Electric Car Grant, helping bring electric leasing into reach for even more drivers. Find out more in our guide to Electric Car Grant vehicles.

Engine & Performance
The 208 is available with petrol, hybrid and fully electric powertrains. The petrol line-up features a 1.2-litre PureTech engine, offered with 75bhp or 100bhp, and paired to either a 5-speed manual or 8-speed automatic gearbox. In 2023, Peugeot introduced new hybrid versions using the same 1.2-litre engine with a 48V battery and electric motor, delivering 100bhp or 136bhp. These hybrids provide smoother acceleration, lower emissions and improved efficiency of up to 58mpg.
For zero-emission driving, the Peugeot E-208 comes with a 51kWh battery and a 156bhp electric motor, giving a range of up to 268 miles (WLTP). Thanks to rapid charging at up to 100kW, a 20–80% charge takes just 30 minutes, making it practical for both daily use and longer journeys.

This French hatchback stands out with its bold, compact design. The 2023 update introduced Peugeot’s latest signature lighting, with distinctive ‘three-claw’ LED daytime running lights and full LED headlights on higher trims. Sculpted body lines, a wide grille with the new Peugeot shield badge, and 16- or 17-inch alloy wheels give the car a dynamic, premium look. The GT and GT Premium trims add sportier styling details, gloss black accents, and unique wheel designs.
