Peugeot ends 508 sedan production due to sales decline

20minutes.fr (French)

Peugeot has discontinued its 508 sedan, marking the end of its production run and signaling a shift away from traditional sedans. The model will not be directly replaced. The 508, launched in 2018, offered gasoline, diesel, and plug-in hybrid options, including a sporty PSE variant. Declining sales, particularly in its primary market of France, led to the production halt on May 12th. The 508's demise reflects a broader trend, with many mainstream automakers abandoning sedans in favor of SUVs. The 408 and 3008 models will now take its place in Peugeot's lineup.
