PEUGEOT 208

摘要

New supermini turns on the style, but how much substance lies behind that? What's the difference between a small hatchback built by Peugeot and one built by Volkswagen? One unappreciated distinction is that the Volkswagen will retain its name when a new generation is introduced whereas the Peugeot won't. The first Polo arrived in 1975 and you can still buy 'a Polo' today. Peugeot gave us the tiny 104 hatch in 1976 but, since then, the same basic recipe has variously gone by the numbers 205, 206, 207 and, most recently, 208. For the casual observer, that's a bit confusing, and if you're Peugeot, it's not great for brand building.
