Enhanced New Peugeot ‘GT Line’ Models

A new sportier Peugeot range is launched under the identity of ‘GT Line’, which presents a visually enhanced, sportier aspect to the 308, 508, RCZ and new 208 ranges, expanding customer choice and positioned high-up in the range. With dynamic style, the new GT Line models will provide customers with a valued combination similar in the style and equipment of the GT versions and with more affordable engines. In most cases the GT Line models can be identified by their larger wheels, twin exhaust tailpipes, RedLine colour scheme for the touch screen, Full-LED headlamps (308 & 508), LED directional indicators (308, 508) and LED rear lights (208, 308, 508). A sporty and top-of-the-range ambience comes through with the association of black and red trim and ‘GT Line’ badging applied to the bodywork.
