- After the Volkswagen Golf in 2013, the new generation Peugeot 308 was elected Car of the Year 2014. One year to the next, two mass-produced cars from segment C have thus won the title, after the election of two electric cars (the Nissan Leaf in 2011 and the Chevrolet Volt in 2012).

- In 2014, electric cars were not far from the title, since the BMW i3 is in second place and the Tesla Model S is third. The other models that were selected were : the Citroën C4 Picasso II, Mazda 3, Mercedes S Class and Skoda Octavia III, these models had fewer points. The 308 Next Generation is the fourth car of the brand to win the title after the 504 (1969), the 405 (1988) and the 307 (2002).

- Inovev expects that 180 000 Peugeot 308 will be produced per year, while the manufacturer announced a production rate of 800 units per day (160 000 per year) it has now been increased to 1 000 units per day (200 000 per year) by the second quarter of 2014, thanks to the arrival of an estate version.

- The first sale figures for 2014 in Europe are not yet known, but we can see that during the first two months of 2014, the Peugeot 308 has already taken the ninth place in the French market, ahead of its competitors the Renault Megane (10th) and the VW Golf (11th).
