Peugeot 308 Hatchback Plug-In Petrol Hybrid Cars
The Peugeot 308 Hatchback Plug-In Petrol Hybrid is an excellent choice for New Zealand drivers who prioritize fuel efficiency without sacrificing power. The hybrid car has a 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine that can deliver up to 180 horsepower and paired with an electric motor. The car's battery pack provides enough juice to go up to 60km on a full charge, making it ideal for inner-city driving or daily commutes around Auckland or Wellington.
The Peugeot 308 PHEV features two charging ports, one of which allows for quick charging at compatible public charging stations in less than two hours. On the other hand, standard wall socket recharging could take over four hours. Moreover, with CO2 emissions of just under 30g/km, this hatchback model may appeal to drivers conscious about their carbon footprint.
This Peugeot also comes equipped with advanced driver assistance features like lane departure warning systems and adaptive cruise control to help ensure driver safety on New Zealand's winding roads and motorways. Furthermore, it has several driving modes (electric only mode being my personal favorite) that suit various terrains and styles; they include Sport Mode for faster acceleration when required or comfort mode during those long rides.
The car's sleek design with smooth contours gives off an aerodynamic look and would fit right into any urban landscape around NZ cities while having ample space inside accommodating five adults comfortably. Boot space is spacious at 434 litres as well. All in all, Peugeot delivers another reliable model appealing to environmentally conscious drivers looking to reduce running costs yet retain some sports-like characteristics - what we can refer to as efficient luxury driving experience here in New Zealand.
