Peugeot 308 SW boot space
The Peugeot 308 SW is the brand’s premier estate car, so how does its boot measure up?
Estate cars have been an ever-present for the French brand since 1949, and that lineage continues with the Peugeot 308 SW – the SW standing for station wagon.
The term station wagon evokes images of those big, wooden-panelled behemoths in the USA made famous by the likes of 'Harry and the Hendersons' and 'National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation', but Peugeot’s version is a little bit sleeker and much more economical.
In the UK, Peugeot’s 405 and successor 406 estates were a popular choice in the 1980s and 1990s, proving to be a solid choice for families across the country.
In the 2000s, Peugeot added SW options to its hot hatch 206 model, which saw the French marque create its own sub-genre of car.
The Peugeot 308 SW is a direct descendant of these early station wagons, offering space and practicality without compromising on that small car nimbleness.
