Peugeot deserves praise for coming up with something different with this chic hatchback/coupé/crossover SUV, said Top Gear. The 408 is available as a 1.2l, 3-cylinder petrol version, or there are two hybrids giving a total of 178bhp or 222bhp. The 12.4kWh battery officially offers 40 miles of electric range, and all models have eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. An all-electric version is in the pipeline.
