The Peugeot 308 can bring big savings to users

The present credit crunch is forcing motorists to look for different avenues of cost reduction. The mid-size Peugeot 308 family car is one of the best alternatives for those motorists who want to shield themselves from future running costs.

Families and companies need not have to switch over to small cars for countering rising costs, says Peugeot.

By opting for Peugeot 308 mid-size family car, people can save more on fuel compared to other models of same size.

Peugeot has 9 versions of popular 308 HDi diesel hatchback with Blue Lion standard, combined with fuel economy of 62.7 mpg and CO2 emission of 120g/km. All these characteristics contribute to reduction of costs presently and in future.

Company car drivers who operate Blue Lion branded HDi diesel model of Peugeot 308 are entitled for tax benefits as per new rules. Vehicles with CO2 emission equal to or less than 120g/km would fit into 10% tax bracket. The tax bill for low tax rate company car owner or driver will go down to £382 from current £583 and for those in the 40% bracket the reduction will be from £1059 to £765.

According to Peugeot UK’s Managing Director, Pierre Louis Colin, finding a car for family which could comfortably accommodate 5 members and still give CO2 emission of 120g/km or less has become a daunting task for motorists. He added that 308 HDi 90 and HDi 110 EGC are more spacious, return above 60mpg and attract only £35 vehicle excise duty. They are the best alternative for all motorists.
