New Peugeot 3008 Review

This is the all-new Peugeot 3008!

Mat’s got his hands on the all-electric version of Peugeot’s family-friendly SUV, and he’s about to find out if it can compete with key competitors like the Tesla Model Y and Audi Q4 e-tron!

So let’s start with a look at the design, and we have to say, it looks absolutely fantastic! Around the back you’ve got a sloping roof line, a little spoiler and some cool tail lights, and it also comes with a two-tone roof and a smart sculptured effect on the wheel arches. At the front it comes with prominent scratched lion-style DRLs, and even though this car’s electric, it comes with a super-stylish huge grille. It’s a huge improvement on the 3008s of yesteryear!

Step inside and the cool design trend continues! Up top on the dash is a huge infotainment and digital dial screen, and there’s a customisable screen in the centre of the dash where you can add shortcut buttons. The cabin is mostly filled with soft-touch materials, and the centre console even comes with some physical buttons included. All-in-all, it’s hard to fault the quality of this interior.

When it comes to performance, there’s currently a single petrol-powered car available, which is powered by a 1.2-litre engine that drives the front-wheels and provided 158hp. As for the E-3008, it comes with a single electric motor that can provide 213hp. It’s also equipped with a 72kWh battery which is good for a range of up to 327 miles.

There are a few other releases in the pipe-line, including an E-3008 with a 98kWh battery and a range of 430 miles, as well as a dual motor edition that will be able to produce 320hp. A plug-in hybrid is also due in the future, too.

When it comes to price, the petrol-powered 3008 starts from around £35,000. But if you’re in the market for an E-3008, you’re looking at a starting price of around £46,000! So is it better than the competition? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Every vehicle with this rear design instantly reminds me of the Pontiac Aztec. That car was a monstrosity. Hard to get past

Not a fan of the outside but the interior is amazing. And THANK YOU for figuring out how to float an infotainment screen that doesn't look like someone forgot to design a space for one so they just slapped a tablet on the dash and called it a day. Also as a motorcycle rider screens in cars make them death machines. At least this one has the display up as high as it can be keeping the outside world closer to where people are looking. I really do like the interior.

Jeez, near £50k for a Peugeot, How have we let things get this bad... 😞

[peacem]

Damn the interior is so dramatic. It is so detailed, looks way better than most other brands.

[africar]

That's one of the best front interior designs I've ever seen

[ragading]

Feels like Peugeot is trying to pull off a Volvo and push for being considered more premium

[kondeamani]

I retired my 1999 mitsubishi lancer with 300k km on the odo and the sunroof was working flawlessly, never leaked

[ItsXpensive]

Carwow not washing the cars before the reviews is mind boggling.

[abba_ra]

Those wheeels are horrendous. I also think the looks are a step back from the previous gen

[JoeyBlogs]

I like the display console setup. No tacky tablet nonsense. A real car display.

[oorya]

If a manufacturer wants to charge nearly 50 grand for a car and can't be arsed to fit a rear screen wiper, they can shove the car where the sun doesn't shine.

[cuprashoe]

You can always tell if he likes the car or not with the enthusiasm in which Mat says " this is the new"

[LucifersTear]

Lmao, I love how you included the brother Euuurgh 😂😂😂

[anony-mousex]

Saw a new e208 the other day and I do agree the exterior design is actually decent - especially when you compare to what BMW are doing with their recent releases

[leesmith]

car designers are absolutely bafflingly stupid. what on earth makes them think we want a crevice on the window that crap can fill. and then they highlight it to reviewers like it's a good thing.

[DayumSonny]

0:37 That's me, commuting every day. Hahaha.
Also the Peugeot badge is starting to look like the Proton badge.

[okithdesilva]

The interior design definitely looks like a 2024 Spaceship!

[mccharles]

The interior designers nailed it the dash layout and center console looks good to me I don't like the steering wheel though

[dronesayeview]

I've noticed car reviewers complain about how Stellantis EV brakes work but that is only because they don't stick with the car for very long and are driving so many cars for their job.

As someone that drives an e208, you get used to this braking very easily and it becomes REALLY GOOD for controlling which kind of braking you use, as it starts off with stronger to maximum regen before the discs kick in.

can't wait for 5008.
HOWEVER, price depreciation of Peugeot makes them like 1/3 of their full price in a few years, so I will probably wait a few years and get a slightly used one. ...but won't feel bad, since they went crazy with the pricing lately anway.
