Video Summary
- The Peugeot e-3008 is a third-generation model, now available as a fully electric SUV.- The car's design includes a sloping roof line that doesn't compromise boot space, which is 520 litres, the same as the previous 3008. The split-fold rear seats are 40/20/40.
- A four-wheel drive version will reduce boot space to 470 litres. There is no front boot.
- The exterior styling includes narrower headlights, an evolution of Peugeot’s three-claw light signature, and a reworked front end. It comes in six colours.
- The interior resembles other Peugeot interiors but is modernized. The 21-inch LED screen shows the driver display and touchscreen infotainment.
- The driver display is high up, visible and doesn't obstruct the view.
- Climate short cuts disappear when using Apple CarPlay. The infotainment system is laggy, but the i-toggle panel provides customisable shortcuts.
- Steering wheel buttons are physical but feel cheap.
- The rear seats offer generous legroom but limited headroom.
- It will be available in three versions with two battery options.
- The entry-level battery is 73 kWh with a 277 hp electric motor and 326 miles range.
- Maximum charging speed is 160 kW for a 20–80% charge in 30 minutes. A heat pump is optional for 700 pounds.
- The ride isn't amazing and can be a bit unsettling and isn't particularly plush. The handling is decent for a tall, heavy SUV. The steering is light and easy for parking but feels disconnected at higher speeds. The brake pedal feel is good for smooth stops.
- It's the first car built on the Stella platform and is essential to the success of that Stellantis project. It is slated to be in two million future vehicles.
- The entry level Allure trim costs about 46000 pounds. Is a value buy? This car is more expensive than a Tesla Model Y and the Kia Niro EV.
- Overall, the car’s pricing dampens its enthusiasm.
