Peugeot 308 ran exclusively on Michelin’s new Energy Saving tyres, included as standard for all 1.6-litre HDi 90 and HDi 110 versions fitted with both 15” and 16” wheels. They reduce rolling resistance and provide a CO2 reduction of up to 4g/km or around one tonne of CO2 during the life of the vehicle.

Experienced MPG Marathon entrants, John Dalton and David Adams were at the wheel, as the 308 triumphed over its class rivals including: the Audi A3 2.0TDi, Kia cee’d 1.6D and Seat Leon FR TDI.
The annual MPG Marathon presents competitors with a variety of urban and extra-urban driving conditions, in an attempt to recreate circumstances faced each day by the average British motorist. The route provides a challenge for drivers to concentrate on reducing their fuel usage, thereby demonstrating the financial and environmental impact of what can be achieved by economical driving.

Commenting on the success John said, “Both David and I were extremely pleased with the performance of the 308. It proved to be a highly economical family car, and certainly on my part, surpassed expectations. This car demonstrates that you do not need to compromise on size or practicality when looking to reduce your environmental impact.”
