Peugeot 2008 2026 News

Peugeot has unleashed a monster sale across its entire range in Australia. Its Australian distributor Inchcape is wrapping up operations with the French brand, meaning stock needs to be cleared fast. This is the best time for keen buyers to get into a Peugeot, with discounts of around $30,000 available on certain models. The deals are available while stocks last. The biggest discount available comes on the E-Expert Pro long-wheel base electric van that now starts from $56,990 (drive-away), down from $79,990 (before on-road costs).On-road costs can add up to $5000 to a car’s price, making this deal even more impressive. Peugeot’s Expert Pro diesel van is also available with sharp discounts of about $8000. The short-wheel base is now priced at $43,990 (drive-away), while the long-wheel base is an extra $2000. The brand’s other Boxer LWB starts from $49,990, compared to previous $52,990 before on-road costs pricing. The rest of Peugeot’s car-based lineup is also available with reduced prices. Its 308 hatchback has experienced a big price cut, with a starting price of $42,990 (drive-away) - a huge discount on its $48,990 retail price. The 408 mid-size SUV has also seen a serious price drop. It is available from $49,990 (drive-away), compared to $57,990, before on-road costs. The 2008 small SUV has a drive-away price tag of $37,990, which is much less than the $42,490, before on-road costs pricing. Peugeot’s top-spec 5008 seven-seat SUV starts from $59,990 (drive-away), rather than $67,990, before on-road costs. Peugeot’s future in Australia remains under a cloud of uncertainty, with no official confirmation of a new distributor yet. It is unclear whether Peugeot will continue to be offered in Australia under its parent company Stellantis or another distributor. Inchcape has distributed Peugeot Down Under since 2017, but sliding sales have seen it pull out of operations. Peugeot has sold just 48 units up to July 2026, which still represents a nearly 44 per cent downturn compared to the same time last year. The brand is eager to continue selling cars in Australia, according to a statement from a company spokesperson. “Peugeot has a strong future in Australia, supported by a robust product pipeline and a clear long-term strategy. We intend to maintain continuity of distribution in Australia and will provide updates as arrangements progress,” they said last month.  “We remain committed to our customers and partners throughout this period and are confident in the brand’s long-term prospects in the Australian market.”
