Video Summary
The Peugeot 3008 is a unique proposition in the market.The electric version is the most powerful, with a larger 97 kWh battery available at a relatively short length.
The car is available as a petrol hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or full electric.
The car is compared to the 5008, which has a longer wheelbase and up to seven seats.
The car is only in the compact segment, at 4.54 meters, yet it offers a 97 kWh battery.
This is a unique offering, since hardly anyone offers this battery size in this segment.
There is another battery option with 73 kWh.
The car has 20-inch wheels with a top trim.
The asymmetrical wheel design can trigger OCD, as the wheels are rarely standing in the same direction.
High-gloss black appears around the wheel arches.
The all-wheel drive version has an acceleration of 6 seconds from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour.
The all-wheel-drive version is only available with the smaller 73 kWh battery, as the price with the larger battery would be too high.
The pricing starts at 40,000 euros with a petrol hybrid engine.
The EV version costs 50,000 euros, and the all-wheel drive with high spec goes to over 60,000 euros.
The 5008 is three thousand euros more.
At the rear is a very distinctive design and an integrated wing.
The tail lamps feature a cool three-dot design when turning indicators or hazard lights are active.
The EV version sadly has no frunk.
The charging speed is 11 or 22 kW AC, and 160 kW DC.
Charging from 10 to 80% takes more than 30 minutes.
The 5008 is significantly longer, at 4.79 meters. This corresponds to 189 inches, ten inches longer.
The wheelbase is 16 centimeters longer to house seven seats in the interior.
Visually, there is a more pronounced part in silver at the last pillar, and the rear is more upright than in the 3008.
The entry-level gasoline engine has a mild hybrid component.
The rear wheels are powered by an additional electric motor in the all-wheel-drive version.
The stronger electric motor is at the front.
The doors are soft-touch at the top with a fabric insert and ambient lighting.
The dashboard has a soft touch, and a 21-inch flying screen goes all the way through.
The user interface has some pros and cons.
The car offers sports seats.
Front windows feature dual lamination.
The acceleration in the sport mode has the maximum horsepower, which amounts to 325 hp. The distribution of power is 60% front and 40% rear.
It’s a unique proposition due to the relatively short length paired with a large battery and good driving fun.
The suspension is not soft; when the road gets bumpy, it is rough. There is no frunk.
For the most part, the assistive driving is on par with other cars.
A cool new feature is that the lane keep assist, speed area alert, and driver fatigue alert can all be deactivated at once.
