The Swiss Motor Show will be glad to house all kind of manufacturers from different countries, especially the French automakers like Renault or Peugeot.

While the Renault is bringing the fresh new Twingo, the other French carmaker Peugeot is counterattacking with the all-new 108 – which is a small hatchback, available for the European customers with more choices than the Twingo.

Talking about choices, since its rival Twingo is only offered with one body style and four colors, the 108 has to offer a wide range of options.

We are talking about three doors or five models, with fixed or retractable roof panel, four engine units and more than 4 colors.

The Peugeot 108, also nicknamed a “city car”, is just the ideal think for walking through the crowded roads of France, since it only measures 136.6 long and less than 64 inches wide, being even smaller than the Volkswagen Up.

Impressive enough about this tiny little car, is the technology that it incorporates, like a 7-inch touchscreen display which shows the screen of your smartphone.

As for the power, we are talking about a 1.0-liter engine developing 68 horsepower, and also a bigger 1.2-liter with 82 hp, sporting a front-wheel drive system.
