Europe-only Peugeot axes three-door production of the 108 in 2021 update.

The Peugeot 108 has received an update for 2021, which brings new colour and design options and a five-door bodystyle only.

The model was introduced to Europe seven years ago and was a ring in for Australia, but never made the cut locally and with SUV tastes on the rise, will likely never make it.

All 108 models will be powered by the firm’s 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine with a five-speed manual gearbox.

“With new colours and interior ambiences, the 108 remains a stylish city car,” said Peugeot UK boss Julie David. “Now offered exclusively as a five-door variant, the 108 is suitable for drivers wanting to travel with friends and family.”

Customers have the choice of three trim levels and models offer a charcoal grey interior with white detailing and trim. The mid-spec trim offers an additional gloss black detailing on the centre console while the range-topping Collection model offers body-coloured door handles in place of the previous chrome design, with 15-inch alloy wheels and orange wheel caps.

Interior updates include orange trim and yellow stitching, with interior colours matching when Smooth Green or Calvi Blue exterior paint is selected. The firm says all other body colours for Collection models will feature an interior with a combination of glossy black and grained black textures.
