Sat in this car and the limited visibility all around is pretty bad. Very narrow field of view out of the front windshield. Very difficult to see things properly out the rear windshield. You'll end up with poor situational awareness as you'll be prone to blind spots with this car. A case of looks over practicality.
damn, that is a gorgeous car...i really hope stelantis pull this off well...would love to see it well supported and i will definitely knocking on the showroom's door.
I had a Peugeot 405 in the mid-1990s which I really enjoyed driving. It was stable and NVH was exceptional for its class. The French really knew how to tune their suspension, so much so that I remember driving at high speed on the North South Highway and running over a bar on the road which blew out both my left tyres, front and rear. Yet, the car had no dramatics, did not flip over or do anything spectacular. All I heard was the noise of the blowout and rumble noise from the car and road. I steered on to the emergency lane and was thankful that my family and I were safe and uninjured. I really loved that car. Unfortunately, the 405 had problems with its auto gear reliability . Barely after owning it for 2 years, the auto gear broke down as I was driving out of Dataran Merdeka car park. I had towed it to MBf-Peugeot which was its distributor then in PJ, and was told that it would cost RM20k to replace it. And considering I had bought the car for RM90k, that meant the auto gear itself was about 1/5 of the price of the car! Even replacing it with a second-hand auto gear costs RM10k! And the foreman said that was no guarantee that even the new auto-gear would not break down again after a few years! I was so disgusted with the reliability of the car, I sold it off at a big loss, and bought myself a Toyota Prado, which gave a decade of smooth reliable driving without any issue at all before I sold it. After my brush with the Peugeot 405, I never ever looked at any Peugeot again. Yes, Peugeot make great cars with great suspension and NVH. However, have they resolved their reliability and spare parts issues?
You posted the very same comment on other videos. What is your problem, dude ? If you don't like Peugeot, then don't buy it. Problem solved. But if you did a bit of research, you would know that Peugeot has done and is doing incredibly well in all safety tests, in all European countries. It's a completely different brand than what it was decades ago. They have dramatically improved the quality. So what's your problem bringing stuff about the 80s ? Grow up. This is 2024. By the way, Japanese brands' reputation is all about reliability, but trust me, they also have lots of technical issues. More often than you would imagine. So how many more times will you post that comment of yours, again ? How many ?
the 405 was infamous for poor reliability and the aircond was not cold even when brand new. you'll actually perspire even at night. it sold well because of the low price point and 24hr towing services offered to buyers. lol
car reviews in a condo car park is a no no..its so dark to see any of the interior..just not enough lighting..put this under constructive criticism category
@@CFA28 1. The wheels should cost well within budget for buyers who can spend RM200k on a new car. 2. Ride & handling engineering goes alot further than suspension architecture. The Mazda 3 is a great case in point where it drives with greater sophistication compared to the Honda Civic. We already explained our opinion on the ride & handling of the 408 GT in this review.
For me if got money, I choose the low spec allure one, got the spare tyre. More practical, less complicated electronic, less electronic, less headache. The engine are the same for all variant by the way. Haha
Pernah tengok kereta ni kt jalan, cantik tapi agak pelik dari segi ground clearance. Sedan lain semua nk lowered, tapi model ni nampak tinggi tak mcm sedan. Bagus untuk jalan kt malaysia 😅

I cant unsee the ginormous rear plastic cladding. If only it was at least painted.

It rained for 16 hours on and off. And this was not a condo carpark.
how much does the 20 inch tyre cost? Rear suspension is using torsion beam right?

That epic scratch noise at 13:20 😂 For a car of this price, they really shouldn't skimp on that. Excellent review as always though!
Better review it under a bright sun or atleast outside, unless u hav a superp studio like lighting there. Gud review anyway, kipidap.
We usually do. But weather did not permit.

Ni suv crossover bkn sedan
I think the reason being is to let the body look sharper at the end. Theast the the colour was so separated
NO to France products
Setuju. Design ev terlalu simple dan basic. Boring gile bile design depan tanpa grill jadi flat surface
You did not talk about the brake system.
It has brakes. It stops the car. Unless the brakes are remarkable (for better or worse), we don't feel the need to mention them.
Its polite, very demure 😂😂😂
Would you reccomend getting the Allure or Premium variant instead? Since they all drive pretty similarly
Its all about cosmetics. Coz as we know Peugeot car does not hv a lot of additional cosmetic in the local market
I love my old 408 till the day it decided to rob my bank account
Ardella Crescent
Peugeot 🇫🇷 makes awesome cars. But for 🇲🇾, it somewhat lukewarm response. Sad😢
20inch on a 218 hp car
The brand is a big no
why is that? 3008 is almost one of the most conti suv that malaysian user had
@@jasonlaminx loving my 208 prince engine a lot. Still keeping it to this day.
Rather buy Chery than this thing...
Seriously? What makes you say so?
