This SW is 4.6m (15ft) long and has a 2.7m (8.8ft) wheelbase. It is a considerably larger car, though – the hatchback 308 is 4.3m (14.1ft) long with a 2.6m (8.5ft) wheelbase. The 308 SW is, as you’d expect, the estate version of the new and broadly well-received 308 hatchback. Will this convince you? Will this new Peugeot 308 SW actually turn around Irish car buyers’ preference for buying vehicles that are needlessly tall and heavy? Probably not, but one must try. Studies have shown that if you took SUVs out of the equation, CO2 emissions from cars would actually have fallen significantly over the past decade. You’ve all gone out in your hordes and continued to buy SUVs, even though we all know – for a fact – that they’re the worst kind of car for the environment. Yet for all our persistence in this area… crickets. It’s not like we haven’t said, repeatedly, that if you’re looking for a usefully practical car with some style, and one that remains enjoyable to drive, you really ought to buy an estate. Verdict: Smarter to look at, nicer to drive, and roomier in the boot than almost any SUV.
