What owners report elsewhere about the 308
This is a summary of public forums, not verified by us and not a first-party review. Recurring points: the electric real-world range is reported at around 40-50 km, below the roughly 60 km WLTP, and heavily dependent on temperature and driving style. With an empty battery, users mention 6-7 l/100km. The i-Cockpit with its small steering wheel and high-mounted display divides opinions. Positives in the posts: ride comfort and styling; criticism concerns the charging speed of the onboard charger and software sluggishness in the infotainment.

Nicely styled, the i-Cockpit takes getting used to · 3/5

I've been driving it for half a year. On electric I get around 45 km in practice; in the cold that drops to about 38. On days without charging and a lot of motorway driving I'm at around 6.5 l/100km, so the WLTP figure of just over 1 l means little to me. With my seating position the i-Cockpit steering wheel partly blocks the instruments, which I keep having to get used to. Pluses: comfortable suspension and it looks good. The infotainment responds slowly on a cold start. For my use with regular charging it's just about acceptable; otherwise I would consider a regular hybrid.

Electric range better than expected, infotainment slow · 3/5
Anonieme eigenaar · 2026-02-09
My commute is around 35 km one way, and I charge at the office during the week. In spring I get about 55 km on electric, in winter with the heating on it's closer to 40. As a result I drive mostly on electricity during the week. On holiday with an empty battery I sit around 6.5 l/100km, on the motorway with a charged battery a bit above that, roughly what you'd expect for a hatchback lugging around battery weight. I find the small steering wheel and the high-set instruments pleasant to drive with. What's disappointing: the i-Cockpit screen responds slowly, especially on a cold start, and setting the charging times via the menu is cumbersome. At 361 l, the boot is tighter than in the regular 308 because of where the battery sits. In the first year it went back once for a software update due to a charging warning.

Quiet and comfortable, but you really have to charge it · 4/5
Anonieme eigenaar · 2026-04-21
I mainly use it for regional trips and visiting family, around 19,000 km per year, with a wallbox at home. If I stay disciplined and charge every evening, the petrol consumption stays low over a month, sometimes I go two weeks without refuelling. If I skip charging for a week, I immediately see 6 l/100km show up and the car feels heavier. In electric mode the powertrain is pleasantly quiet and the suspension filters out long undulations neatly, that is the strong point on the motorway. On short rough sections the rear axle bounces a bit. The interior finish is tidy for the class. A small practical point: storing the charging cable under the boot floor comes at the expense of the already limited space.

In depth
The WLTP figure of around 1.2 l/100km applies only with a full battery; drive it empty and consumption moves towards 6.5 l/100km as a petrol car carrying battery weight. The actual outcome depends on how often you charge (utility factor).
About the Peugeot 308 Hybrid PHEV (2024)
Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.
This 308 combines a 1.6 petrol engine with an electric motor and a battery of around 12.4 kWh, good for about 60 km electric range WLTP (manufacturer figure, indicative). The WLTP consumption value of around 1.2 l/100km is a calculated value that assumes a lot of electric driving with a full battery. Anyone who rarely charges is in effect driving a petrol car that carries the battery weight: then consumption is closer to around 6.5 l/100km. The fuel-economy score therefore rests on insufficient data: the actual consumption depends too strongly on the charging behaviour (the utility factor). The methodology is in the guide on PHEV consumption.
In practice
With an empty battery owners report around 6.7 l/100km in petrol mode (owner forums, n≈15, not measured by us), in line with the 6.5 calculated value plus the battery weight. The indicative list price rose from about 40,990 euros (reference date early 2024) to 42,980 euros now, a starting price, no offer and no forecast.
Points to note
The towing weight is zero and the boot is smaller than in the petrol version due to the battery (361 l). Charging is only possible on alternating current; fast charging is not possible. Work out for yourself whether you use the electric range in practice, before you put this variant above the regular petrol version.
