Description
The 2023 Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 100 GT remains one of the most visually arresting superminis on the market, perfectly capturing Peugeot?s move toward a more premium, upmarket identity. This top-tier GT trim is distinguished by its sporty gloss black wheel arch extensions, a diamond black roof, and the full LED 3-Claw lighting signature that gives it an unmistakable presence at night. Inside, the cabin is a masterclass in modern design, featuring the 3D i-Cockpit with its holographic instrument cluster and a 10-inch HD touchscreen. The addition of the EAT8 8-speed automatic transmission elevates the driving experience significantly, offering smooth, seamless gear changes that make it feel like a much larger, more expensive vehicle during urban commutes.
Under the hood, the 100hp PureTech engine provides a fantastic balance of nippy performance and genuine long-distance refinement. With 205 Nm of torque available from low revs, it feels punchy and responsive, yet it remains incredibly efficient, comfortably returning up to 55 mpg on a combined cycle. This 2023 model is packed with driver assistance technology, including a 180-degree colour reversing camera, front and rear parking sensors, and Lane Keeping Assist, ensuring it is as easy to park as it is to drive. For the buyer looking for a stylish, high-specification hatchback that doesn't compromise on technology or fuel economy, this GT EAT8 is arguably the most complete package in the 208 range.
