DRIVE TIME: As I'm typing this, I've only driven the 1.6THP Petrol variant. I've tried my best, but I can't seem to get hold of Peugeot 508SW GT 2.2HDI for test drive. Itching to test the MEGA 450Nm torque at 1600-2500rpm!
How's the 1.6THP? Same as the Sedan, except it handles slightly better. Power delivery's very smooth and soundproofing's EXCELLENT. Typical French car ride and handling which's INCREDIBLE with high level of comfort and refinement. But, like most High Pressure Turbo, there's slight turbo lag during kickdown.
Lastly, this baby comes with 5 years UNLIMITED MILEAGE Warranty with 24 hrs Peugeot Assistance and Peugeot Privilege.
Rating: 8/10 for 508SW 1.6THP and 9/10 for 508 SW GT 2.2HDI.
