Official: Peugeot reveals new 308

After many revealing spyshots of the 308 undergoing testing surfaced on the web, Peugeot decided to officially reveal the evolutionary 308 today. The exterior of the car seems more of an evolution of the 307 while the interior is quite the unexpected. The exterior also seems fit to describe as a bloated 207.

The interior shows some retro touches including individual slots for the CD changer and the circular air vents which give the 308 the elegance it deserves. Peugeot did not reveal any technical specs, but sources say it will be available with the 207's 1.6L 120hp, 1.6L 150hp turbo and a 2.2L 170hp turbodiesel in the higher-end trims. The 308 will make public debut at the Frankfurt International Motor Show this September. Speculations note that the 308 will go on sale this fall. The Coupe-Convertible version should launch a year later. Follow the jump to view the other two images.
