Peugeot's new 208 supermini, the replacement for the 207, will be launched in the UK next summer in three and five-door body styles.

The 208 will be a five model range, four of which are equipped with the new generation Stop & Start System (e-HDi). The diesel range starts at 87g/km of CO2 (delivering fuel economy of 83.1 mpg) and there are no models that exceeds 99g/km CO2.

The 208 also introduces a new range of three-cylinder petrol engines, 1.0- and 1.2-litre VTi, which start at 99g/km of CO2 (delivering 65.7mpg).

More details on the 208 will be made available closer to its launch in the middle of 2012.
