- The reviewers like the exterior design, particularly the front grill, the blacked-out windows and the new Peugeot badge.
- A couple of people thought it was a BMW.
- The car features keyless entry, automatically locking and unlocking as you walk away or approach with the key.
- The selling point of the e-308 SW is its 608-liter boot space.
- When the rear seats are folded down, it offers 1634 liters of space.

- The car features a 3D i-cockpit, a 10-inch screen, i-toggles, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- There is also good climate control, heated seats, and a heated steering wheel.
- A drawback is that the wireless CarPlay sometimes cuts out.

- Rust was already present on the wheel covers after only 1800 miles on the long-term loan.
- The car's claimed WTLP range is 254 miles, but the practical range seems to be around 210 miles.
- Regenerative braking does not offer full one-pedal driving.
- The reviewer enjoys the "strong chuckability" provided by the small steering wheel, making it fun to drive.
- The ride is reasonably smooth.
- The car does feel quite dark inside and a sunroof might be better.
- Also, she thought it could do with “more punch.”
- She appreciates that the navigation instructions continue to display on the screen even when using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
