Hot News: 2012 Peugeot 508 is 407 & 607 Replacement


PSA Peugeot president Philippe Varin has revealed the name of the 407 and 607 replacement - the 508.

Early development work on the 508 - which will replace both the 407 and 607 at the same time - has already begun and, as the car's name suggests, in terms of size it will sit between the models it replaces.

The current plan is for a 508 concept car to be unveiled at the Paris show next year, before the production version is launched at the Geneva motor show in 2011.

The model will mark the return of the series of 50x numbers, which were last seen on the 505 when it was launched in 1979.
