How many presenters can pull off arguing with geese and still produce informative journalism. Always enjoy Nicolas style and could watch her all the time oh wait I do, might need to get out more. Keep up the good work ❤
seven seater family hauler (because you cant have adults in third row) and you only two isofix points.. they entirely killed the reason why people were buying old 5008
I had 3 Peugeot’s as company cars. They got driven “well” around the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, in all weathers. Not once did I have a problem.
Oh yes, someone rating the car for why you want a car. Space, daily use etc, not the accelration. A very good presentation of cars after looking at some episodes.....so I also subscribed! Have a lovely day!
Im personally waiting for the HEV version but I just wanted to say how charming and lovely your review was! I've watched a lot of reviewers on the new 5008s and yours was by far my favourite! Subscribed and liked! Keep up the amazing work!
I think squishy brakes are a thing with Stellantis BEVs. I have driven a couple of different Stellantis brands and non of them had nice positive feeling brakes.
How does Stellantis tend to do with Right hand drive? Some cars have slightly odd driving positions and glove boxes half full of fuses. Also, ~£45k for the 3008 is already bonkers, it's not much better given this thing will need the duel-motor if you actually have 7 in it.
I politely disagree with those saying this doesn’t work for kids. I’ve had an estate EV for 3 years, taken it to Europe and Ireland every year, do the basics and more with a range nowhere near as generous as the 5008. We are a family of 5. That said, our EV is our only car and any time we have family/friends visit us, we struggle with space and, thus, trips are not possible. That extra row of seats at a reasonable price has me so excited about this EV
The lack of isofix points is a total dealbreaker. I have three young kids and the old 5008, and I need those fittings. What were they thinking removing them?
Why is it so many reviewers such as yourself are so thrilled by a HUGE battery pack to haul around for most of the time when all your doing is driving around the city/town your not doing massive road trips 365 days of the year so why not have smaller battery, good charging rate and ubiquitous reliable dependable charging infrastructure everywhere?
For the same reason that ICE drivers like bigger fuel tanks. I paid (a little) extra for a tank to do 550 motorway miles rather than the default 350-400 miles. I HATE refuelling on motorways because of the inflated price and the delay. When I buy an EV I want to charge on domestic night rate. Maybe you can do maths that says I should save on car cost and more than pay for that extra recharge cost, but after a while I will forget the car cost and I will hate the motorway recharge cost every time. AND the infrastructure barely exists north of Manchester.
Because I'm not driving around city/town - I use public transit for this. When we use a car it's usually relatively long distance. So why not use public transit instead of these small "city cars"?
I just bought and had my new E3008 GT delivered on Monday. I love it, nice design, incredibly easy to control, and you sit super nice in it. AND everything about it not being able to run fast enough because of the weight is nonsense in my eyes. When and why should you be able to go from 0 to 62 miles in 4 seconds?
For safer overtakes, merging, general pleasure of driving. 4 driven wheels is greater traction in wet/slippery conditions. Power feels premium and people like that
@paulswanenburg7445 because you never see people in underpowered Honda civics or astras doing the same. A moron will be a moron regardless of their car.
You as a double dog owner should really show if it and how it fits double or single dogcages. It's the law in some countries. I always check the price first. Someone with lots of kids also does that. Since you talk about transporting kids should be testing cleaning a milkshake or the likes in all three rows, seats, floormats and side's . No, I didn't like the review. You should be testing sports cars. Power, brakes, acceleration... That are not very everyday things. Step up your reviewing game please.
Strange to be more compromised than the last model. We seem to be going backwards. I also much prefer an open ‘walkthrough’ cockpit - super practical. Easier to clamber through to the back or passenger seat if needed and stretch out. It’s not for me.
This car basically only has 1 competitor: Kia EV9 + Good price, very good range compared to the EV9 - No one pedal drive. - No LFP battery, which allows you to charge to 100% on a daily base. EV9 also does not have LFP battery. - No proper EV only dedicated platform I would still go for the EV9 because one pedal drive is really a game changer.
@@MykolaDzham True, the choices for a 7 sitter EV are really limited at the moment. Hopefully Kia will come with a 7 sitter EV7 similar in size as the e-5008.
@@ferrariforever1 Would be cool but I doubt ... Volvo EX90 when it will finally come will be 5 meters (and even more expensive). Hyundai will also come with IONIQ 9 at some point, but it will be most likely about 5 meters too. Tesla Model Y 7 seater is not available in Europe. The only comparable car today is Mercedes EQB that is ugly by many params because it is just GLB with the petrol engine replaced by electric motor.
The question is, do Peugeot have plans to make an e508? That's a beautiful car and isn't a SUV. An e508 would take the fight to the i4 and could even have an estate version. That would be of interest to me.
The interior in this looks better and has less glossy black plastics than the new Audi Q6 E-Tron, never thought I would say that but well down Peugeot 👏
Just for you Nicola, and you asked nicely. A comment 😅. I do not understand why they have a screen you press to get the results in another screen. They could have just had some lovely climate dials or screen for that alone.
Nicola is presenting a vehicle not available over on this side of the pond? I'm watching regardless.. 🙂 This thing is massive and a little under powered. Lets hope its efficient (for its size that is) with that massive battery..
Other EV channels tell us we're silly to want more than 400 miles of range. I like that you prefer that, but I think it would be worthwhile twerk circulate why you feel that 400 miles of range is worthwhile.
Love the appearance of the interior but only on the photo/video. Seems very restrictive. The taller you are the tighter it will be. Also I liked the last gen of Peugeot design more. The new face looks like its sniffing its way down the road. And lastly we need a sausage dog for a reference of available space and volume. Make it happen Nicola! Thanks~
As an American who owns two electric vehicles, I get angry at EV bashers who claim we can’t buy decent quality, moderately priced battery-powered vehicles. If we could buy cars from Peugeot, Renault, Skoda, etc., we would have much better choices without turning to the dreaded C**nese. From what I have heard about the Skoda Enyaq, my wife and I would have bought one instead of the VW ID.4 we own if we had been able to buy a Skoda. It’s discouraging to watch reviews of these cars and see what we are missing. I hope this note helps the algorithm.
You don't need 7 adults for the next time FYI. Here is a simple test "is this a family car?": put two child seats on the second row and try to seat between them.
Nicola Hume talking to ducks....love it! Classic! Love her reviews, never a dull moment. Informative, but thanks to Nicola's charactor i'm never bored by the facts and figures in the reviews.
Need to test EVs that have just turned 4 years old, and compare them to their I.C.E equivalents, running costs, range, value. Its all well and good when shiny and new, but the average individual or family doesn't really want to change vehicle every 3 years or can afford to, even more so now that taxes are about to go through the roof in the UK.
The size is good for me as I loose 2/3rds of my rear seat in my sportage. To accommodate my mobility scooter and crane. Not having the 6th and 7th seat is no problem to having a full rear seat. Hopefully it will be a mobility choice in 2026 when I change car's.
Fun review and I liked a couple of the production techniques with multiple Nicolas. If the price point is right as suggested then this really is worth considering if you have all those ankle biters. For those of us without children or who have not yet thrown away the chest wig and gold medallions this is pretty dire. But back to price, if they have got the price point right this should beat some of the present incumbents. I just hope I do not have to drive one.
Not a bad vehicle for £50k, considering the desperate shortage of electric people carriers. Maybe it’s more a 5+2 than a 7, like EQB, but I think this’ll sell enough for Peugeot (despite the quirky cabin / steering wheel design).
Definitely my favourite and in my opinion the best electrifying presenter. Just a wonderful way of making the details interesting which only a fraction of motor channel journalists can do. However, in this case the impact of the butty bribe is clear to see, I am glad that clear bias was admitted on camera along with photographic evidence of the ensuing gluttony.
So this car is for very specific family: 2 small kids and 2-3 other over 145cm tall from (preferably) previous marriage. And the lack of space implies the new wife to be under 160 cm tall. Very specific needs 😂 Anyway, EV9 can seat 6-7 adults of 188cm. But is a significantly bigger car. And EV9 has 4-5 isofix for the many kids in one batch family
