Peugeot 3008 SUV review: carbyr.uk/2dZmDoL
Watch our latest video: bit.ly/carbuyervideos
The Peugeot 3008 is now a fully-fledged SUV, and a remarkably good one at that. It's styling is superb, and the interior is beautiful and practical. Its clever i-Cockpit dashboard is a 12.3-inch screen that displays your speed, navigation, phone and audio information. And a four-wheel drive-aping Grip Control system enhances traction when needed.

Indeed Peugeot has improved !!

@haihohh7394 7 лет назад

French cars indeed have improved a lot, seems like they're back to their glory days as in the 80s. Don't believe all the clichés which say that French engineering is bad, in fact the French are among the top in many reliability indexes.

@safwanc3043 7 лет назад

This is THE car. If you had any sense, you'd pick it over the overpriced German heavyweights, if obviously, you couldn't afford them

@safwanc3043 7 лет назад

K_Q_ J_H it's excellent

@NickLiang 7 лет назад

@safwanc3043 7 лет назад

NickLiang I get what you're trying to say. If you can afford the Heinz, go for it. But if you wanted to, you could get two cans of Asda beans for the same price, making it better value for money, meaning you'd compromise the quality, or would you...? Either way, it's the way you look at it and personally, I'd pick the 2008 and that would be if I couldn't afford an X3, or GLC, or Q3...

@safwanc3043 7 лет назад

K_Q_ J_H So get the 2008. That's what I'd do if I were you

@safwanc3043 7 лет назад

K_Q_ J_H I know! And I know you like both of them but what would YOU pick? If it was between the A4 and this, then I'd pick the 3008. I generally like SUVs and this is a perfect package

@williamtudor 7 лет назад

Peugeot have really reinvented themselves these past few yrs. Far better than german rivals and now far more reliable too. Who would have thought!

@babylonian5 7 лет назад

franch cars more reliable then german ones? I highly doubt that time will ever come. Theres a reason renaults and pegeuts lose so much of their value over the years

@livc444111 7 лет назад

Babylonian the reason French cars lose so much of their value is because of reputation. French cars where bad from 1999 until 2006 for Renault and until 2010 for Peugeot Citroen, no real quality issues since unlike VW cars

@williamtudor 7 лет назад

Babylonian Already been proven. Peugeot came above every German manufacturer for reliability and customer satisfaction. Peugeot have been improving whilst Germans have massively declined in recent years. Its not an opinion either, it is objectively a indisputable fact.

@NickLiang 7 лет назад

For the extra money you get a lot more performance, more sophisticated drive train and technological advancements. The quality of materials used is also greater. In the same sense Heinz beans taste nicer than ASDA smart price beans. You cannot compare the two, they are engineered and sold for a different demographic. Anything that is more complicated and performs at a much higher level will naturally become less reliable. You cannot compare the two cars. In terms of performance and price range, they are directly competing with the Japanese and Korean manufacturers and they are not even close to building cars to their quality.

@williamtudor 7 лет назад

NickLiang Your comparison is ridiculous. There is no correlation between Heinz and asda smart price, and say Peugeot and VW who are on the same level. Lexus are clearly more upmarket than Peugeot, but VW? C'mon. The fact remains that Peugeot are making very reliable, stylish cars with a more upmarket feeling interior than rivals in the same segment. The scratchy plastics of VW, SEAT, Ford, Vauxhall et al just seem cheap, nasty and poorly built by comparison. I wonder why people are so butt hurt over Peugeot's obvious come back?

@saintsyoun 7 лет назад

I am beginning to change my mind of buying a Peugeot now after watching your review... I love watching your reviews in each car... The one of the best reviews when it comes to get complete knowledge of cars

@boyserful 7 лет назад

after 9 years of owning a peugeot i decided last month to move on and get something else as peugeot were not progressing, look at them now loln awsome car

@trxndesign3331 7 лет назад

Waited for this video since September, good job carbuyer ! P3008 is amazing

@thedons4270 7 лет назад

well done Peugeot and their entire range the past 4 years are far more reliable and economical than any of its overrated and costly German rivals!

@Pipsicle330 7 лет назад

Ross Donovan No Germans would ever alienate customers by blocking the speedo with the steering wheel.

@Pipsicle330 7 лет назад

K_Q_ J_H No they didn't. Still can't see a thing in a 208 or 308. And when you resort to calling people names that just shows your lack of being able to construct anything intelligent.

@thedons4270 7 лет назад

pipsicle if your not able to adjust the steering wheel and seat to suit yourself, then you should not be allowed drive a car. it seems the most pointless and only argument Ive heard from the media, mainly cos their nit picking on a car thats won European car of the year whilst not having a German badge! the 308 also will be more reliable and has a world record for fuel efficiency in its class as does the 208. these are reasons why the 308 was top of the class in last years driver power survey too, not the golf, a3 or focus. I personally think its the best looking car in its class as well 3 years after its launch with probably the seat Leon in second. Cars like the focus are totally dated looking now.

@Pipsicle330 7 лет назад

I'm not the media. I can't see the dials in the 208 or 308 unless I put the steering wheel so low down that it's jammed on my legs. Awful design. My friend is much shorter and has the same problem. VAG would never sell cars with such huge flaws. If I was ever given one as a hire car I'd have to refuse to use it as I couldn't tell what speed I was doing. Shame, as I like Peugeot's but they sell 2 models that I couldn't own. In this day and age they shouldn't be alienating any customers!

@thedons4270 7 лет назад

pipsicle to be honest my wife can easily see the dials by adjusting both the seat and steering wheel and Ive no problem either. I seriously cant see how anyone could not do that and be able to see the dials and without having steering wheel jammed into your legs unless the seat back is pushed horizontal into the rear seats, that your driving the car lying down. And if thats suppose to be a major design flaw then they're after a doing great job on the car altogether. what I consider a major design flaw or decision is installing software to cheat emissions testing and then introducing a cheap fix that affects the performance of the engine and the value of the car, ala VW.

@mk471329 7 лет назад

The car really has a very nice design. Peugeot is a very successful brand in car designs.Especially the orange color suits this car very well.

@MyEthan1998 7 лет назад

this car is too damn beautiful to be driven

@danielgreen5803 7 лет назад

It's a Peugeot, soon enough you won't be able to drive it anyway

@MyEthan1998 7 лет назад

dave kahn haha that is probably true. My dad owns a 2013 Peugeot 508. It has already had numerous problems including its timing belt and engine mounting. I hope they are stepping up their game lol

@thedons4270 7 лет назад

Ethan Wong I think that was probably an exception rather than the norm, as I also have a 4 year old 508 and have never had one single issue with it. Nothing whatsoever. The 508 also topped German TUV used car index for best in class reliability ahead of the Honda Accord. The VW passat came last.

@PhilippeMarchand-xw1zp 6 лет назад

I’ve rent one for 2 weeks in Corsica. It’s a GRRREEAAT car. It does extremely well on the little bumpy and curvy roads of Corsica. Did a bit of off road driving to get to some secretive well-hidden beaches and the lack of 4WD was not a problem at all. Compare to 3008 my every day Tiguan is dull and boring.

@josephsitti4492 7 лет назад

I test drove a BMW series 2 active tourer because I wanted a badge and boy was it dull ! I have since test driven the Peugeot 3008 and loved it ! and have ordered one should be here middle of March can't wait

@haihohh7394 7 лет назад

joseph sitti glad to hear so many people now prefer French cars over German cars

@harry4319 7 лет назад

probably the first Peugeot I've seen I like

@michaeldean7220 Год назад

My wife did the test so I can only really comment the passenger experience. The interior finish is very slick and modern compared to it's rivals. The digital dashboard is stunning and the model I tried had a mock carbon fibre like trim. The very small flat bottomed steering will be distinctly Marmite.

@moimeme0123456 7 лет назад

Great car !! BRAVO PEUGEOT !

@amopastorcanadense 7 лет назад

i had a Citroën C4 coupe and it had air vent perfume( 7 dif levels ) and GSM port in navidrive system...back in 2006 it should be pretty cool, actually Maseratti Grand Turismo used the same navigation/radio unit(RT3 model).

@nathaliedubois570 7 лет назад

Vraiment hâte d'aller essayer ce nouveau SUV 3008 ! Je vais réserver un test drive chez mon concessionnaire à Alesia !

@davetravels9273 7 лет назад

Wow the production value of the video just went up! Great job! I'm curious if Peugeot will fit a hybrid drivetrain to the 3008 down the road. Rumor has it that the new 2008 will offer a hybrid drivetrain. Rumor also has it that it will used compressed air instead of a battery, but I will believe it when I see it.

@devalsays 7 лет назад

its looks like complete package..!

@nultianeks 7 лет назад

@ParideNasello 6 лет назад

Hi James! In December I ordered a 3008 1.6 BlueHDi EAT6 but now I can change (only 450€) the order in favor of the new 1.5 BlueHDi EAT8... Could you please give me an advice?

@SagaAcademica 7 лет назад

I would consider this Peugeot and new Toyota CHR..if you dont need an awd.

@ragingsilver 7 лет назад

Is the new trend for cars to have really high gear stick positions? Got a new ford Focus and I find it quite high. You get used to eventually but it's still not as comfy as my previous car.

@MegaBenjo88 6 лет назад

Great suv! I test drove a 1.2 petrol, 6 speed manual. The infotainment system is sluggish and not the greatest, the gear box was really light and plastic feeling and another thing was the pedals were quite close together but other then those faults there, it’s a great suv!

@carllake6954 Год назад

Did you find you were pressing 2 peddles together with them being close together?…I found this a problem when test driving the 2008 a few years ago, must be a French thing. However, I love the new design of the 3008 & I want to test drive it.

@paulbryan1969 7 лет назад

Well I've ordered mine today 😊 the GT version. So looking forward to when it arrives in March 😊

@shiners3137 6 лет назад

Paul Bryan hey man, did you get your 3008? Just wondering how you've been finding it the last few months? I'm ordering mine in May 2018 so I'm just curious.

@kayephillips7256 5 лет назад

@rui518 7 лет назад

I wish I could bought this car in Portugal whit the prices of other European countries...

@tainichitimbo2926 3 года назад

@0:53 I feel the enthusiasm, great review mate.

@shiners3137 6 лет назад

Test drove one today, 1.2 PureTech turbo petrol. Was amazed by the pull and that was with 3 people in the car. I'll be ordering one in May. My only worry is the reports from some owners of the infotainment screen giving issues, being non responsive etc, can any current owners attest to that? Also what KM return are you getting on a single tank with the 1.2 model. I'd imagine 400 to 450km being very much acceptable.

@markwong6927 7 лет назад

stunning..

@davidhayes4814 7 лет назад

Hi sherukka, actually you are probably right because it does look lovely inside.

@tazwarhossain5283 6 лет назад

Which engine was shown in this demonstration?

@DjamKMF 7 лет назад

Nice review showing how the 3008's drive, style, cockpit can more than easily compete with other somewhat overpriced popular models.Now, let's check my first finances!...

@vaclavkytka2731 7 лет назад

did I just watch an advert?

@fisslewine1222 6 лет назад

Interior is really impressive, as I’ve been looking at Hyundai, Toyota, And Honda....and the Peugeot seems better designed for Western UXD wants...only issue I see is that it lacks 4x4 as at times you want the car to handle dirt based roads...

@andyfernandes5288 2 месяца назад

What about the offset steering wheel

@khalidiqbalsheikh8471 5 лет назад

Bro i am confused between 3008 and qashkai. Which one is the best in all terms.

@joaopedropaixao9485 7 лет назад

Hey Carbuyer, how the fudge do you obscure the dials of the 208 with your positioning? Are you 5ft2? I am 6ft0 and I get a clear perfect view of the dash in my 15' 208...

@joaopedropaixao9485 7 лет назад

James Batchelor Can't understand it. I drive left as I'm in Europe out of UK, but I guess that doesn't make any difference. The glove box in mine is indeed way bigger than yours due to the fuse thing. The dials I can't picture it. I can even photograph and send it to you so that you can see it.

@Pipsicle330 7 лет назад

João Paixão I'm 6'1 and can't see the dials in the 208 or 308. Complete fail on Peugeots part to alienate any customers. Will have to check this car out and see if it's any better.

@rui518 7 лет назад

wait you are that high? and can't see it? I can't imagine your driving position its impossible to believe now, your credibility is lost whit that information...

@bigboybazza2001 7 лет назад

have orderd mine get it some time in march 3008 gt model

@skidy2 6 лет назад

They have not moved the twin drinks holder in the centre console so when drinks are in place they get in the way in the driver trying to changing gears also the glass sun roof internal cover was better in the older car. Now its very thin mesh i don't think that will help with heating the car in the winter.

@valleysofneptune 5 лет назад

The more I look at this car , the more I like it. 508 is a belter tho

@NotKevinLin 7 лет назад

how about the glovebox? is it still tiny? he didn't mention it.

@joshbacon8241 7 лет назад

I wonder why PSA don't move the fuse box over to the driver's side for right-hand-drive cars?

@jeffchristie1541 4 года назад

Never ever had the problem with the small steering wheel , so it’s not “Bad” news at all !!!!

@p5ychonaut 7 лет назад

still its a french car. money maker for the mechanics. but true, nice looking car.

@shroomyesc 7 лет назад

By local statistic though, mercedes' spend more time in maintenance than french cars. (post 2000)

@MrRodrigo1250 7 лет назад

p5ychonaut in my country Peugeot just use 1.6 THP for this car (made with BMW partner)

@MrZiemwit 7 лет назад

yes but who buys mercedes, this peugeot is more expensive than rav4 or new hybrid ch-r, you want toyota or french car ? I choose japan

@shroomyesc 7 лет назад

MrZiemwit Well besides the Toyota C-HR being nearly as ugly as the 2016 prius, over here the C-HR is 4000€ more expensive than the respective 3008, and the RAV4 is outdated and the same price anyway. The only positive to that is the fact that the toyota has better resale value.

@Sherukka 7 лет назад

french cars = which do you mean, you can't put them on the same page (Renault/PSA)? PSA = best real quality of all european cars nowadays (VW easily worst).

@Riskbreaker2009 7 лет назад

I'm dying to see the review of the new Renault Koleos for some french comparison

@joshbishop7134 7 лет назад

My mom is trying to buy the old one....... I HATED THAT CAR. But i love this new one. Aaagghhhh

@mfmf100 7 лет назад

I think this would have a chance here in the states considering how popular small SUVs are; this seems a nice one. Would have to be automatic though, and only the gas 1.6.

@derbigpr500 7 лет назад

Who the fuck in their right mind would pick a gutless petrol over a powerful diesel? Diesels are superior in EVERY SINGLE WAY in normal, non-sports cars. They even sound nicer than 4 cyl petrol engines.

@marcuswoodgate4026 7 лет назад

derbigpr500 yes definitely those 1.4tsi engines vw make and those 1.2 purtech engine peugeot make sounds absolutely shit. Although the PSA 1.6 and 2.0 BlueHDi's sound beautiful.

@robertsmith7667 7 лет назад

Why didn't they bring this out earlier, already bought the kadjar now.

@murph82 7 лет назад

I was really interested in this car until he mentioned the high bite point of the clutch, it really puts me off buying a Peugeot but I suppose that's more a personal issue. Might still see about a test drive as this looks like a cracking buy.

@markusdeep42 6 лет назад

Why I do think that it manufactured on the same platform as Range Rover Evoque?

@user-id6ww1bv8z Год назад

Great car it seems but how reliable is it and do repairs cost a fortune?? Is the car over computerized and are repairs only possible at Peugeot dealers??

@stephen10. 7 лет назад

there is a Grip Control for sand,snow, mud and in 2019 there will be a 4X4 hybrid plug-in with 300 Horse Power.

@1993minhnhut 7 лет назад

The hybrid version will be available first on the DS7 (Geneva 2017) and on the 3008 after ;)

@rui518 7 лет назад

well you can chose awd or flat floor for your feet in the middle seat on the back, also the cost is much higher and Peugeot wold need to develop the thing, also forget the small weight of this car if it was awd...

@joshbacon8241 7 лет назад

Personally I don't think some people will need four wheel drive anyway...

@bucwolf 4 года назад

Because it is a crossover. You also have grip control system for multiple situations such as sand or getting out of snow. If you plan to go offroad, maybe a jeep would fit better your choice?

@richardtuson605 5 лет назад

People are moving back to petrol and I'm not convinced 1.2 turbo is enough. Its 10.8 seconds 0-60 is 2 seconds off its rivals which have a 1.4/5T. Add family in and it's not going to be enough. Peugeot do seem to have improved on reliability although this model has not been out that long

@edwardlloyd1516 5 лет назад

Try that 1.2, you'll love it. 130hp doesn't tell the whole story. It delivers torque like a 150hp diesel.

@dimitrislouka3651 7 лет назад

Pls make a review for bmw m2

@swanblake 7 лет назад

Why would one get a crossover if it is without awd? Seems to be missing the point

@rui518 7 лет назад

not really sometimes you go to bad roads but you don't really need AWD just a high car, also is better for people whit bad back is easier to enter, I would like this car I really don't drive in mountain road that often but the seating position the space and the comfort of a long suspension on travel. and have in consideration that a AWD car had a lot of complexity to the system, more fuel consumption and more parts to maintain for little performance gain specially when you have a electronic grip control like Peugeot made, used it once in a 2008 test course and it worked like a champ...

@stephen10. 7 лет назад

in 2019 there will be a peugeot 3008 4X4 plug-in hybrid.
