I used to drive a Peugeot 4008, which was equipped with a turbocharger. The 1.6T version I drove had ample power, with the turbo kicking in as soon as I stepped on the accelerator, delivering strong acceleration that made overtaking on the highway effortless. Compared to a naturally aspirated engine, this car had slightly lower fuel consumption, averaging around 8.5L/100km for me. In city stop-and-go traffic, the turbo could cause a slight jerk, but it became manageable once I got used to it, with smooth acceleration overall. I've also heard that the newer 1.8T version is even more powerful, handling uphill climbs with ease. It's important to pay attention to maintenance, such as regularly changing the full synthetic oil to prevent the turbo from overheating. Turbocharging offers a more fuel-efficient yet powerful driving experience, making it a practical choice.
