Peugeot 208 voted Car of the Year 2020
- After the election of the Peugeot 3008 SUV in 2017, Volvo XC40 in 2018 and Jaguar I-Pace in 2019, it is a sedan that wins the election of the Car of the Year 2020, since it is the Peugeot 208 which became the best-selling car in France in the first two months of 2020.
- The Peugeot 208, which collected 281 points during the vote, is ahead of the two electric cars Tesla Model 3 (242 points) and Porsche Taycan (222 points) and its main competitor the Renault Clio (211 points). The Peugeot 208 has undoubtedly been rewarded for its design and for its wide choice of thermal and electric engines, while the Model 3 and Taycan are only electric and their price is significantly higher.
- This is the sixth Car of the Year title for Peugeot after the 504 (1969), the 405 (1988), the 307 (2002), the 308 (2014) and the 3008 (2017) which became the vehicle the most produced in France in 2018 and 2019.
- The Peugeot 208 (segment B sedan) is produced on the Slovak site of Trnava and also on the Moroccan site of Kenitra. Inovev anticipates 350,000 copies sold each year worldwide.
- The Peugeot 208 lends its CMP platform to the new Opel Corsa, and in the future to the Citroën C3 and C4 scheduled for the early 2020s. The DS 3 Crossback also borrows this CMP platform, which allows all these cars to have access to an electric version, which is a specificity of this platform.
