The purchase method involves paying a 100,000 KRW deposit at the Peugeot Smart Store, and then the vehicle is delivered following the guidance of a salesperson at the showroom designated by the customer. Customers can apply a 580,000 KRW reduction from the individual consumption tax cut, a 20% special promotion ongoing in November, and an additional 150,000 KRW discount for Peugeot Smart Store customers. Customers who take delivery will receive a free Line Friends smartphone holder with wireless charging functionality.


Song Seung-cheol, CEO of Hanbul Motors, said, "In line with the recent trend of the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic activating online markets, we decided to enter Naver Smart Store as the first in the automobile industry to provide customers with a more convenient and safe vehicle purchasing environment."


The Peugeot 508 2.0 Allure trim features a luxurious and stylish interior and exterior design, including full LED headlamps and the 'i-Cockpit' interior focused on ergonomic design. It applies frameless doors to lower the overall height by more than 35mm and delivers solid driving performance.
