The new Peugeot 408 has been launched in Türkiye with three different trim levels: Allure, Allure with panoramic sunroof, and GT. Special launch offers for the entry-level model are set at around 2.270.000 TL, while all versions use a 1.2-liter hybrid engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission. WLTP fuel consumption is stated to be between 5,0-5,1 L/100 km, and the trunk capacity is measured at 536 liters.
The refreshed version of the model is offered in the Turkish market with a 1.2 L hybrid engine producing 145 HP and an eDCS6 automatic transmission. In terms of equipment, the most prominent options are the Allure and GT packages. With a special launch recommendation price of 2.270.000 TL, the 408 Allure 1.2 Hybrid 145 hp eDCS6 version offers an attractive starting price compared to the official list price.
The official price list includes a separate standard price and a launch discount for each version. This situation is a deciding factor for those considering looking at the 408, not only in which package to choose, but also in whether or not to miss the launch period. For example, the Allure 1.2 Hybrid has a list price of 2.570.000 TL, while its launch price is stated as 2.270.000 TL. The Allure with a panoramic sunroof has a list price of 2.654.444 TL, while its launch price is announced as 2.350.000 TL. For the GT, the list price is 2.910.000 TL, and its launch price is 2.745.000 TL.
The differences between the launch price and the list price are becoming more pronounced across models: In the Allure version with a panoramic sunroof, this difference reaches 304.444 TL. The difference is 300.000 TL in the standard Allure and 165.000 TL in the GT. Therefore, when considering the 408, one should not only focus on which package to choose but also fully evaluate the launch period.
One engine, three different price tiers. The Turkish product range, summarized by the phrase "Turkey," uses the same engine-transmission combination across all models: a 1.2-liter three-cylinder hybrid unit produces a total of 145 HP.

Official technical specifications state a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9,4 seconds and a top speed of 205 km/h; WLTP fuel consumption is between 5,0 and 5,1 L/100 km.
When examining the dimensions of the 408, it is stated that the length is 4,69 meters and the wheelbase is 2,79 meters. The luggage capacity is 536 liters.
