PEUGEOT 3008 CROSSOVER REVIEW

For Peugeotâ€™s 3008 offers excellent refinement, a classy interior and plenty of versatility: itâ€™s a fine all-rounder for families.

Against Rear kneeroom is tight and the ride and handling arenâ€™t great unless you get a car with Dynamic Roll Control.

Car Booth says

4 out of 5 stars

The 3008 is practical, refined and easy to drive. A sumptuous cabin and some excellent engines help make it even more appealing â€\x93 and our 2010 Car of the Year.

Peugeot 3008 Crossover 1.6 THP 156 Sport 5dr

The 3008 is a great car, and this is our favourite version. It's so good that (with the previous version of this engine) it won our 2010 Car of the Year Award.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The 3008 comes with two 1.6-litre petrol engines (with 118bhp or 148 in the turbocharged THP), and two diesels, the 1.6 HDI and 2.0 HDI. An automatic gearbox is optional with the 2.0 HDI, but for our money the more powerful petrol engine is the pick of the range. Trim levels give high levels of standard equipment, and top-end models have all the luxuries and latest gadgets.

Peugeot dealers are generally happy to haggle, and small discounts or free equipment upgrades should be entirely possible, but donâ€™t expect huge cuts until the 3008 has been on sale for a while. Watch out, too, for low-rate finance schemes and other incentives; as large mainstream retailers, Peugeot dealers have room for manoeuvre.
