Peugeot is Australia's best-selling French car brand. Looking through the history of Peugeot, you’ll see many automotive innovations and a track record of motorsport success. Right now the company is offering a seven-year warranty and seven years of free roadside assistance on all 2017 models.
The company makes a wide range of vehicles, from the compact 208 hatch to the new 5008 SUV. Prices start at $25,578 drive-away for the Active trim 208 to $59,490 for a 5008 GT automatic.
Peugeot operates 35 dealerships nationwide.
Here’s a breakdown of the purchasing options through Peugeot’s dealer financing. These include consumer loans, commercial hire purchases, chattel mortgages, leasing or novated leasing.
Obviously, the final price you pay for a loan, as well as the monthly fee, will depend on which model you buy. A 2018 Peugeot 208 Active with an 1.2-litre, 81kW turbocharged engine retails for $25,578, including $1,995 dealer delivery, $873 registration costs and $720 stamp duties. Over five years, a secured car loan could cost $502.80 per month including a $150 application fee.
On a top-of-the-range 5008 GT SUV the total cost is $59,940 inclusive of a $1,990 dealer delivery charge, $1,085 rego and $1,925 stamp duty. A secured car loan over five years for the premium SUV would start at $1,165.53 per month with a fixed interest rate of 6.45%.
Peugeot prices quoted are for postcode 2000 and accurate as of 30/04/2018.

Don’t forget to factor in running costs such as fuel, insurance and maintenance. Compare car insurance deals to get the best possible policy for your Peugeot.
If you’re unsure of which financing path to go down, consider the following four key factors:
This is a personal decision and we can’t tell you which way to go. You should pick the best possible option that suits your lifestyle, circumstances and financial situation.
New or used Peugeots both offer benefits and downsides. Buying new gives you the security of a lengthy manufacturer warranty and fewer worries about reliability. But new cars can depreciate in value quickly.
Purchasing a second-hand Peugeot, even just a year old, may avoid this and pass a substantial saving on to you. Buying the right car is essential: if you find a low-mileage model, for example, then you’ll usually have an almost-new car for significantly less money.
Again, this depends on your circumstances and driving needs. If you live in a city or metropolitan area you’ll appreciate the 208 or 308’s small footprint, ease of parking and peppy lower-capacity engines.
Families will enjoy the roomy and practical SUV models, as will those living in rural areas with lots of unpaved roads.
People who drive for a living, covering vast distances, will benefit from the added comfort and fuel efficiency of the 508 sedan or stationwagon.
