Yup, that would be a Peugeot 508.
@Edvin: I guess it's on par with the Passat? Never heard of it. Is it popular in Europe?

Yes, it's the equivalent of a VW Passat, Ford Mondeo or Opel Insignia. It probably sells pretty well in France and Spain, but you don't see that many of them over here. The Passat and the Mondeo are more popular in my part of Europe.
It is sold here too, and to me, looks more interesting than the conservative Passat.
I haven't seen many of either, but should pay more attention from now on.
