New Peugeot 308, 508, 3008, 5008 2021 pricing and specs detailed: French cars and SUVs now much dearer than Hyundai and Volkswagen

Peugeot Australia has increased the pricing of all of its cars and SUVs by $2000 to $4000, depending on the variant.

Speaking to CarsGuide, a Peugeot Australia spokesperson confirmed no changes have been to the standard specification of the 308 small car, 508 mid-size car and 3008 and 5008 mid-size SUVs, with their price rises instead prompted by exchange-rate pressures.
