Peugeot 408 sedan have been spotted

Peugeot 408 sedan have been spotted being tested on Malaysian roads for over half a year so far, and these tradeplate-bearing locally-assembled units have been slowly losing their disguise since we first spotted them way back in mid-2011.

We first heard news that Nasim was going to assemble the Peugeot 408 in mid-2010. The 408 is Peugeot’s C-segment sedan competitor, loosely based around the Peugeot 308, but this time Peugeot didn’t simply tack on a boot to the car, like it did with the 207. The Peugeot 408 gets a longer 2,710 mm wheelbase and a redesigned roofline, so it looks pretty good unlike a typical hatch-turned-sedan.
