“The Peugeot design team enthusiastically accepted the challenge of redesigning the new Peugeot 208. We wanted to emphasize its strong personality even more without changing the overall style. A new front end with a new Peugeot branding and redesigned 3-prong taillights give the new Peugeot 208 a modernity typical of the brand. They give it a 'cat' look while maintaining an athletic, sculpted silhouette that customers love." - He said Matthias Hossanne, Style Director Peugeot

The new light signature, first introduced on the new Peugeot 508 and 508 SW, and then on the new Peugeot 2008, appears today on the new Peugeot e-208.
