Sitiing above the Peugeot 308 Gt, the range topping 308 GTi comes with the same power plant found under the hood of the RCZ 2+2 Coupe.

The 1.6 liter engine with twin-scroll turbo and direct injection makes 200 bhp and 275 Nm of torque from 1,700 to 4,500 rpm. This enable the 308 Gti to to do the benchmark 0-100 km/h sprint in 7.7 seconds when paired to a six-speed manual transmission.

What’s really impressive is the fuel consumption, which is rated at 14.5 km/l in the combined cycle. The 200 THP engine is built with Sound System technology, which delivers different harmonics according to vehicle acceleration. This is from a vibrating membrane controlled and amplified by an acoustic duct – quiet when it’s supposed to be, louder when you’re pressing on.

Chassis wise, the GTi’s front suspension gets joints with larger diameter bearings derived from platform 3 (C/D segment) and specific damper settings with particular attention paid to the uprated front units (22 mm damper rods compared to 20 mm). The GTi rides on 18-inch alloys (same design as GT) with 225/40 tyres.

Inside, sporty features include an aluminium foot rest and gear knob, leather steering wheel with slightly flattened lower edge and piano black fascia. All these are present in the RCZ, as is a more modern and integrated layout for the stereo system.
