The Peugeot HMP (EB2FB) is a 1,199 cc, inline‑three, turbocharged petrol engine produced between 2015 and 2023. It features a lightweight aluminum block, dual overhead camshafts, and direct fuel injection for efficiency. Peak output is 81 kW (110 PS) and 205 Nm of torque, providing brisk low — end response for its compact size.
Fitted to models like the 208 GT Line and 308 Active, the HMP was engineered for urban agility and low CO₂ emissions. Emissions compliance was achiev…
Production years 2015–2023 meet Euro 6 standards .
The Peugeot HMP (EB2FB) is a 1,199 cc inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine engineered for superminis and compact hatches (2015-2023). It combines direct injection with a small twin-scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive performance and class-leading fuel economy. Designed to meet Euro 6 standards, it balances low emissions with spirited driving dynamics.

The Peugeot HMP (EB2FB) was used across Peugeot's B/C-segment platforms with transverse mounting. This engine received platform-specific adaptations-minor ECU mapping for dashboard integration-and no significant facelift revisions during its production run, ensuring broad interchangeability. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.
Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.
Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The HMP is generally very reliable mechanically. Its main long-term concern is carbon buildup on the intake valves, a common trait of direct-injection engines. With regular highway driving or periodic professional cleaning, and strict adherence to oil change intervals with the correct ACEA C2 oil, it can easily surpass 200,000 km without major issues.
The most frequent issue is carbon buildup on the intake valves, leading to performance loss. Less common are timing chain rattle (if oil changes are neglected) and GPF clogging (from excessive short trips). Oil leaks from the valve cover gasket are also occasionally reported. These are well-documented in Peugeot service bulletins.
This engine was fitted to the Peugeot 208 (2015-2023) and 308 (2015-2021) in various trims. Due to PSA Group sharing, it's also found in the Citroën C3 (2017-2023) and the Opel Corsa (2019-2023). It's typically badged as 'PureTech 110' or '1.2 PureTech'.
Aftermarket ECU tuning is common on the HMP-EB2FB platform, but increasing boost or altering engine parameters accelerates component wear, impacts emissions compliance, and may void vehicle warranties. Any modifications should be evaluated carefully by a qualified specialist.
Excellent for a turbocharged petrol. Expect 5.5-6.5 L/100km (43-51 mpg UK) on the highway and 7.0-8.5 L/100km (33-40 mpg UK) in the city. Combined, a figure of 6.0-7.0 L/100km (40-47 mpg UK) is typical for a well-driven 208 or 308. Real-world figures depend heavily on driving style.
Yes. Like virtually all modern engines, the HMP is an interference design. If the timing chain were to break or jump, the pistons would collide with the valves, causing severe and expensive internal damage. Thankfully, chain failure is extremely rare with proper maintenance.
Peugeot mandates a low-SAPS (Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus, Sulphur) oil meeting ACEA C2 specification, typically 0W-30 viscosity. This is critical to protect the GPF from clogging. Using the wrong oil can damage the emissions system. Change intervals should not exceed 20,000 km or 12 months.
