The Peugeot 308: Stylistic Revolution of the Lion
Launched in September 2007, the Peugeot 308 marked a significant break in the Sochaux manufacturer’s strategy. Designed to replace the aging 307 and 307 SW, it introduced a new, more modern and dynamic stylistic language, orchestrated by designer Gérald Welter under the direction of Jean-Pierre Ploué.
The 308 stood out with its fluid and taut lines, its prominent grille proudly displaying the Peugeot lion, and its balanced proportions that gave it a certain presence on European roads. Available in 5-door sedan, SW (station wagon), and later CC (coupé-cabriolet) versions, it showcased the versatility of the PSA platform.
Its commercial success was immediate, propelling Peugeot into the forefront of European compact sedans. The 308 notably excelled with its improved finish quality and efficient engines, especially the HDi versions, which appealed to customers seeking economy.
Peugeot at the Turn of the 2000s
During the development of the 308, Peugeot was going through a pivotal period in its history. Under the presidency of Jean-Martin Folz and then Christian Streiff, the French manufacturer sought to reclaim the premium market while modernizing its brand image. The 308 was part of this strategy for upward elevation, demonstrating a desire to compete with German benchmarks.
This era coincided with the emergence of environmental concerns in the automotive industry. Peugeot, with its expertise in diesel engines developed since the 1980s, positioned the 308 as a modern technological response to new ecological challenges, especially with its HDi FAP (Particle Filter) engines that became a market reference.
The family business, which evolved into the PSA Peugeot Citroën group, was also seeking to assert its identity against rising international competition. The 308 embodied this ambition for stylistic and technological renewal, marking a decisive step in the contemporary evolution of the lion brand.
A European Recognition
The story of the Peugeot 308 is marked by an exceptional recognition: in 2014, the second generation of the 308 won the prestigious title of "Car of the Year" in Europe, a distinction Peugeot hadn’t achieved since the 307 in 2002. This award crowned the considerable efforts made by the Sochaux teams to create a vehicle that met the expectations of European drivers.
Even more surprising, the 308 quickly became a symbol of the French automotive Touch abroad. Produced in the Sochaux plant, as well as in Mulhouse, it conquered markets as diverse as South America and North Africa, demonstrating the universality of its design and the adaptability of its engines.
An amusing anecdote concerns its official presentation: at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, the 308 CC (coupé-cabriolet) created a sensation by being presented by models on a rotating podium. This spectacular staging, unusual for Peugeot, underscored the strategic importance given to this model and the manufacturer's confidence in its new flagship.
Today, the 308 remains in memory as the model that allowed Peugeot to regain its prestige in the highly competitive compact sedan segment, paving the way for the brand's subsequent successes on the international scene.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
