Question 1

Is the Peugeot 208 EAT8 automatic reliable?

Accepted Answer

Generally yes: the EAT8 is an eight-speed torque-converter automatic built by Aisin, and it is robust when its oil is changed. On a test drive it should shift smoothly, without slipping or a delay engaging drive.

Question 2

What is the ETG gearbox on a Peugeot 208?

Accepted Answer

An automated manual: a manual gearbox with an actuator working the clutch, fitted to some early first-generation 208s. It is simple but shifts slowly, with a nod between gears, so try it in traffic before buying.

Question 3

Is a used Peugeot e-208 a good automatic for Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

For commuting, yes: it drives like an automatic with no gear changes and pays the flat €30 road tax. Ask for a battery state-of-health report and try a charge at a public point.

Question 4

How much road tax does an automatic Peugeot 208 pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

The gearbox counts only through the CO₂ figure: a petrol 208 pays CO₂ × 0.6 × a band factor. A car first registered from 2021 is taxed on its WLTP figure, an earlier one on NEDC.
