This is the new Peugeot 5008!
Peugeot has released petrol-powered & all-electric versions of the new 5008, but does it offer enough to tempt you away from similar 7-seaters like the Skoda Kodiaq and Hyundai Santa Fe?
In terms of the design, the 5008 is a massive improvement over the previous edition. It’s a boxy design that comes with smart contour panels across the side, along with the option of choosing a contrasting coloured roof. There are also some cool, unique alloy designs available too. The front-end design is super-smart, with a grille that blends into the overall design of the car. It also comes with the traditional Peugeot DRLs, which only help improve the front end's aggressive look.
Step inside and the interior design is a marked improvement over the previous edition. There’s a huge widescreen infotainment and digital dial screen, and most of the cabin is made of soft-touch materials. The small steering wheel helps enhance the sporty feel, and there’s a fair bit of storage available throughout.
The ICE range starts with a 1.2-litre self-charging hybrid petrol engine that produces 136hp and 230Nm. A 1.6-litre plug-in hybrid is also available, which can deliver 195hp and 350Nm. There’s only one E-5008 option available—a single electric motor that produces 210hp and 345Nm.
The ICE 5008 range starts from around £38,000, while the E-5008 starts from just over £48,000. So is it worth splashing out on the EV over the ICE? And more importantly, is the new 5008 a better choice than the Kodak or Santa Fe?! You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!
