Peugeot 408 Powertrain Performance

Powering the front wheels is Peugeot’s 1.6 litre Turbo High Pressure (THP) 4-cylinder engine, developing 165 PS at 5,500 RPM and 245 Nm of torque from 1,400 RPM, marginally beaten by the Honda Civic in terms of power and almost matching the Volkswagen Jetta in terms of torque.

The ‘Prince’ engine co-developed by PSA Peugeot Citroën and BMW features direct injection and special low pressure die-cast heads. The “e” in the engine’s e-THP name refers to the engine’s automatic start-stop feature that makes its debut in Malaysia on the Peugeot 408. The engine is mated to an Aisin six-speed automatic transmission with Quickshift technology.

    2021 Peugeot 408 Overview

    Peugeot 408 Overview

    The second-generation Peugeot 408 made its Malaysian debut back in 2016 in the sole e-THP variant. Locally assembled in Naza’s Kulim assembly plant, the Malaysian-spec model is priced from RM 143,888 when new and comes with a 5-year unlimited-mileage warranty.

    Based on the 408 nameplate and its 4-door sedan layout, the Peugeot 408 would naturally be the successor to the Peugeot 407, but instead it is a long wheelbase version of the Peugeot 308 hatchback. 

    They share a similar front end featuring the same ‘fanged’ full-LED headlights and a similar front bumper design barring a few subtle differences. Aimed primarily at emerging markets like China and South America, the C-Segment Peugeot 408 goes up against rivals in the likes of the Toyota Corolla Altis, Mazda 3 and the segment leader the Honda Civic.

    Must Read

    • Ride- Peugeot has always been known to have sophisticated ride quality. Based on the same platform that also underpins the Peugeot 308, the longer wheelbase offers a supple and cossetting ride even when riding over road imperfections.

    • Interior Design- The interior design is modern and feels upmarket. While the i-Cockpit layout may not be for everyone, the attention to detail is commendable and the materials used are luxurious to the touch.

    • Performance- Matching the 1.5 L turbocharged Honda Civic 0-100Km/h time of 8.2 seconds, it is one of the quickest C-segment cars off the line thanks partly to the 245 Nm of torque which is available down low from 1,400 RPM.

    • Exterior Design- The Peugeot 408 shares the same elegant corporate front end as the hatchback equivalent but unfortunately is let down by the lacklustre rear design.

    • Fuel Economy- Compared to the rest of the competitor in the segment, the 6.5L/100Km fuel consumption figure is far from satisfactory especially when compared to the frugal 1.4 L engine on the Volksawagen Jetta.

    • Features- Onboard infotainment system lacks modern connectivity features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also lacking is any ADAS features such as Autonomous Emergency Braking, which is made available on the Peugeot 308.
