Peugeot has given the 408 a glow-up rather than a full makeover, putting lighting technology firmly centre stage for the model’s mid-life facelift. The fastback crossover becomes the first Peugeot to feature illuminated brand lettering at the rear, paired with an illuminated lion badge at the front – creating a sharper visual identity without touching the car’s underlying mechanical package.
The facelifted 408 marks the first time Peugeot has rolled out illuminated brand lettering on a production model. At the rear, the glowing name is integrated into a glossy black strip that runs the full width of the tailgate, flanked by the brand’s familiar three-claw LED light signature.
