The Peugeot 408 is a compact car (C-segment) produced by Peugeot. It was unveiled on January 25, 2010,[1] at the Beijing Auto Show and sales began in China on April 8, 2010.[2] In November 2010, production of the 408 commenced in El Palomar, Buenos Aires, Argentina,[3] with sales starting in April 2011.

Despite its name, it is not a direct successor to the Peugeot 407, but rather a long-wheelbase saloon version of the Peugeot 308 hatchback,[4] primarily targeted at emerging markets such as China.[5] The 408 is not slated for the Western European market, and not built there.
