The common denominator of the series was that the Rallye models were usually based on fast versions of their respective hatchback counterparts (i.e. the 106 XSi and 306 GTI) but did away with most luxury amenities such as electric windows and mirrors, the heavy seats and in some cases, even power assisted steering and airbags. <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MJrvA20vA8w/UGDyvGwP94I/AAAAAAAJMqQ/Btc807HU5b8/s1600/Peugeot-208-Rallye-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MJrvA20vA8w/UGDyvGwP94I/AAAAAAAJMqQ/Btc807HU5b8/s200/Peugeot-208-Rallye-6.jpg" width="124"></a>Peugeot's ultimate goal was to lower the cars' weight to improve performance and handling while also offering them at a lower price point – something that made the Rallye models extremely popular with driving enthusiasts on a budget. Today, Peugeot is looking to re-enter the sports hatch segment with <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/peugeot-reveals-all-new-208-gti-hot.html">the new 208 GTi</a> that is lighter at 1,160kg (2,557 pounds), smaller, and thanks to its new 197hp (200PS) 1.6-liter turbo engine, more powerful than the disappointing 206 and 207 GTi models. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/peugeot-le-mans-dealer-creates-208.html#more">Read more »</a>

Whether the new 208 GTi will live up to its promise is something we'll just have to wait to see, but the initial specifications are promising, starting with the fact that, at 1,160kg (2,538 lbs), Peugeot's latest pocket rocket is a whopping 165kg (364 pounds) lighter than the 207 RC (called GTi in some markets including the UK). <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7jYd1VjvPIY/UESvFtjlrLI/AAAAAAAI050/ek8JXJLXAO8/s1600/2013-Peugeot-208-GTi-13.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="75" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5783940334113631410" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7jYd1VjvPIY/UESvFtjlrLI/AAAAAAAI050/ek8JXJLXAO8/s200/2013-Peugeot-208-GTi-13.jpg" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; border: 1px solid rgb(224, 224, 224);" width="108"></a>It's also more powerful than the 175hp 207 RC / GTi as it is equipped with the same 1.6-liter four-cylinder turbocharged petrol found in the flagship version of the RCZ Coupe, which generates an output of 197hp (200PS) and peak torque of 275Nm (203 lb-ft). <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/peugeot-reveals-all-new-208-gti-hot.html#more">Read more »</a>

Peugeot's Interactive Short Film Asks a Question Nobody Really Cares to Answer [NSFW]

That's not to say the clip isn't interesting to watch, it's just that there's not much to connect it with the 208... The film shows a man running around naked for the most part and getting himself into all sorts of bizarre situations after his girlfriend caught him with another woman. Given the amount of rear-end nudity (the front grille has been blurred out) in Peugeot's film, we'll have to warn you that it's definitely not for work. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/02/peugeot-interactive-short-film-asks.html#more">Read more »</a>

Premium touches on the outside include a bespoke ‘Pulsion’ paintwork that Peugeot says has the ability to change color depending on the distance and the position from which it is viewed. It is created with sixteen coats of paint and lacquer. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/02/tres-chic-peugeot-xy-concept-is-all.html#more">Read more »</a>
