French car maker Peugeot had released details of its new medium-size estate, the 308 SW, which should start hitting showrooms in June.

Hoping to build on the success of its recently launched 308 hatchback, the SW promises the same level of standard equipment, Peugeot’s newfound bold approach to exterior design and wallet-friendly petrol and diesel engines.

Prices will start from £16,895 for the entry-level 110 horsepower 1.2-litre petrol model, while engine stop-start, both manual and automatic gearboxes will be offered along with selected engines dipping to 85g/km CO2.

The range comprises four trim levels, while the car’s rear load area boasts 660 litres of space with the rear seats in place and 1,660 litres with seats folded. Basic standard kit includes DAB digital radio, USB connection and Bluetooth connectivity plus LED daylight running lights.
