Peugeot claims to be the pioneer of "folding roof cars" with its elegant 401, 601 and 402 "Eclipse" models from the 1930s, Peugeot now reveals details of its latest coupé cabriolet, the 308 CC. The new Peugeot 308 CC will be the star of this year's Paris Motor Show in September.

The 308 CC, with its four full-size seats, highlights all of the inbuilt strengths of the 308 range whilst still embodying the "307 CC spirit" and Peugeot's coupé cabriolet expertise. The 308 CC stands out due to its elegant and stylish design, both in its coupé and cabriolet configurations. A low sporty profile confirms the dynamic potential of the 308 CC and the prominent shape and the LED rear lights create a unique signature for the car by day and by night.

The front seats, with their integral head restraints, have an inbuilt air vent, which diffuses warm air around the occupant's neck.

The rear seats offer rear accommodation that is which Peugeot claim is surprisingly generous for a cabriolet.

The 308 CC will be available with both simple and an "integral leather" interior trim. The entire passenger compartment is now also trimmed in leather.

The new Peugeot 308 CC offers a multitude of everyday benefits, such as, the fully automatic retractable roof that can be magically transformed in 20 seconds, four full size seats-with increased rear leg room, excellent structural rigidity, usable boot, which includes a number of dedicated storage spaces (including one under the boot carpet designed to hold the optional wind stop), it has a capacity of 465 litres or 266 litres with the roof folded.

The Peugeot 308 CC will be available in Ireland later this year. Prices and final specifications will be announced closer to the time.
