Peugeot 3008 MPV 2014 review - Carbuyer 

I have the allure version from 2014. It´s fantastic indeed...

The boot opening is not a trouble?I mean the way it opens..the tailgate is not in the way,when you try to put somenthing in?

I have a question,how much weight can the tail gate/lower boot door take when loading? I mean,can it take a person to sit on it or even 2? This is a more a question due to heavy cargo that might be put in

glad i'm not the only one to notice, its so un necessary

+Nickolai Siegfried you my friend would like to date a man.

How is the boot,space is good?the tailgate is not a problem,i mean the way it opens

I like the look too ad I don't usually like the really sporty ones that much it's good to know I'm weird and alone in this 😉

... Not weird and alone in this ***

This is only facelift of old 3008. Next 3008 will have superb small steering wheel as well as smaller sister 2008, 208 and 308 II has. Go and test 2008 or 308 II the small steering wheel is great. Big wheel seems so old fashioned after that.

The 3008 rear wasn't bad either...

about 50 mpg

They don't directly compare, please read my article here: robboothautomotive.blogspot.fr/2014/04/do-american-cars-consume-more-fuel.html

Rob Booth Visuals TL;DR: American fuel, gear rations, gear boxes and engine tunings are utter shit. *** To answer your question, Rob, Europe gets far higher quality fuel compared to the states. US regular (87 AKI/91 RON) doesn't exist in Europe. Depending on the fuel station, regular in the UK can be either 95 or 97 RON ("Euro Premium" and "Premium", respectively in the US) with "Supreme" being 97 or 98 RON (again, depends on the fuel station). We also have high performance fuels that go to or exceed 100 RON, such as BP 100 and Shell Nitro+. America has limited access to fuels like that, if at all. We also don't mix ethanol in our fuels except for the dirt cheap stuff for older cars, but that's about it. Our engines also aren't tuned for low knock like American market engines. It may sound like a good thing, but it actually makes engines less economical as a result - all a low knock engine does is stop any potential unburnt fuel from reaching the exhaust (please note "POTENTIAL"). Since modern engines have knock sensors and adjust accordingly, the low knock tuning on many american market engines is useless. Lets also remember that Europe has moved to tiny turbo charged petrol engines and small Common Rail Diesel engines. Reliable, frugal, cheap to manufacturer. Hell, cars like the Hyundai ix35 (Tuscon?) comes with a 1.7L or 2.0L Diesel 4 banger in Europe, with the latter having close to 400Nm of torque, more than a much larger V6 as is used by many American crossovers and SUVs. We also get far better gear ratios on manuals (manuals are almost always more economical than automatics over here) and we also get more advanced automatics. The US is still stuck with slow and heavy slushboxes and CVT; yet here we've grown to love 6 and 7 speed dual clutch transmissions. As an example, look at the 1.6L Hyundai-Kia T-GDI Gamma engine used in both the US and EU markets (all figures converted to metric). In the Forte Koup Turbo, the Engine is rated at 22/30. On the EU market in the Pro_Cee'd GT, its rated at 24.2/38.5 with a combined average of 31.8MPG. From what I can gather, the US engine is pretty uneconomical. Pushing close to V6 territory in how thirsty it is. Meanwhile, in my Pro_Cee'd GT, I have a combined average of 29.9mpg when I don't drive like an idiot. Only 1.9MPG difference. I can get over 40MPG on the motorway if I'm careful with throttle inputs. If I lived in an area where the motorways and dual carriageways weren't full of those long, shallow inclines, I'd probables match Kia's combined MPG claim or exceed it.

benanderson89 Thanks for your comment. As you read in my article, I was comparing cars like for like in both countries. When I asked Mike Spinelli from the Drive network, he explained that the disparities exist because of different fuel consumption evaluations and testing cycles. Props to Mike for taking the time to answer. The Cee'd looks to be a good car.

Rob Booth Visuals There are different testing cycles, yes, but the fuel and tunings and gear ratios play a LOT into it. Weight as well. If you look at American Domestic cars (like Chevrolet, Cadillac, Chrysler etc.) they're surprisingly heavy vehicles.

Man of culture as well

It's probably foldable.

It's a Mitsubishi Outlander reskin mate, hence that silly/ugly tail gate.

Adam Doodad That's the 4007 not the 3008

Yep, I did google after I typed that comment, lol. You're right. This car is related to the ASX though.

that's the 4008.

well we are really lost now :) lets resume: 4007 is based on Outlander (Tne Citroen C-crosser share same base) 4008, ASX and Citroen C4 aircross also share one chassis and components and I think the 3008 is base on previous generation 308 but the silly split door still remains incomprehensible for me :)

…and you sit quite high in front so you wont't spoil the space at the back as fast as with other cars (because you don't have to move the chair that much back).

Yeah Sherukka a no I won't I love all my cars and will never change them

Fixed but u can use a switch to operate the shade

Yeah what a trunk ❤️❤️

They've done the most recent version already: Audi A6 Allroad Quattro estate review - CarBuyer

Oh, thank you :)

That car is ugly man buy a Lambo or something. You are worth more than this!

underpowered engine!?!?!? this is a complete joke, they pull so nice!

Brakke the 1.6 THP in the 308 is good, but in the 3008, like the 508, feels slow.

The best seller, the 1.6 HDi 115 is a superb motor with the 6 speed gearbox, they're very refined and far better than the VAG 1.6 TDI 105 motor or 1.5 dCi 110 motor fitted to the Qashqai, much more torque and an extra gear which makes motorway journeys very relaxing. We have a 308 Allure & 3008 Allure with the HDi 115 6 Speed, both with above average miles and never gave a moments bother. The 2.0 HDI 150 engines are slightly more torquey than the VAG 2.0 TDI CR 150 motors also.

Reliabilty? The 3008 is really reliable! Underpowered? Even the smallest diesel can easly go well over 100mph at full load! And the 150 to 163ps engines are quiet powerfull ;)

did u buy this car?

than dont watch it i love the car

carbuyer is for helping you decide witch car u want

I'm afraid I disagree, it helps when loading large items.
