Best Value Lease Car: Peugeot 408

To get maximum value with a lease deal, timing and flexibility is key. Sometimes deals come up that seem rather unbelievable. This year, that comes in the form of the Peugeot 408 – our Best Value Lease Car 2024.

It's hard to believe a car this good was available from around £175 per month.

What our judges said: “The 408 is a sleek fastback SUV with a stunning and comfortable cabin. It’s hard to believe a car this good was available from around £175 per month. That’s less than you’d pay for many smaller, less practical and arguably less prestige hatchbacks. No wonder that this came out on top when it came to choosing our best value lease car.”
