Julie David, Managing Director of PEUGEOT UK, said: Marking 20,000 sales of the PEUGEOT 208 is a great cause of celebration. It was the first vehicle from PEUGEOT to be available with efficient diesel and petrol engines, or as a full electric variant, all under a single design with no compromise in capability. With the full electric variant accounting for more than 20% of registrations, it shows how popular and successful our strategy has been so far, and we look forward to seeing more customers behind the wheel of our growing electric line-up.
