Peugeot 508 facelift teased on official Facebook page

From the looks of it, the Peugeot 508 facelift is due to make its Malaysian appearance anytime soon. Teased on Peugeot Malaysia’s Facebook page, the rejuvenated D-segment competitor was first unveiled to the public way back in June 2014 – close to five years since the launch of the pre-facelifted variant.

Now as far as teaser shots go, this one is pretty convincing as only the head and taillight assemblies are pictured. With that said, we pretty much know how the whole car looks like and what lies beneath the restyled sheetmetal. In Malaysia, expect the 508 facelift to come powered by a new THP163 engine.

Unfortunately, the teaser shot refrains from any mention of a launch date, instead only asking us to “stay tuned for more.” However, with teasers like these already out in the open, a Q2 launch for the 508 doesn’t seem so far-fetched, after all.

  • If this has all the tech as the new 308 AND the LED headlights, they really have a winner here. Don’t mess it up Nasim.

    According to the article in The Edge, Peugeot will be launching 3 vehicles this year which is the 308, 408 and 508.

    We saw the 308 and now they are teasing the 508 so next up the rarely seen 408 on the road…

    Anyhow wonder what they will add with this FL model…hmm

    One can only hope they do a proper LHD to RHD conversion. French automakers tend to be lazy at this.

    The fl 508 might get the thp150 engine, similar like recently launched new 308..

    IMHO, 508 should be getting the thp200 engine.. baru ada oommpphhh..

    150~160hp for a car this heavy is a crime against humanity.

    • Why do most Malaysians just think of power? There’s more to a car’s engine than hp. FC & running cost to name a few. A more sensible option would be the new 150bhp or 180 bhp 2.0 BlueHDi.
