The model
Read full Peugeot 5008 reviewWhile the Peugeot 5008 has more rivals than the fully electric e-5008, it’s ultimately a better car, offering the same seven-seat practicality along with a more comfortable ride. If you do buy one, we recommend entry-level Allure trim and the mild-hybrid engine.
The trim
See full equipmentThe entry-level trim is pretty well equipped, with 19in alloy wheels, keyless entry and start, 3D sat-nav, a wireless phone-charger, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a reversing camera and tri-zone climate control. There’s also a fancy 21in curved display that incorporates the instrumentation and infotainment screens.
The engine
See full engine specsThe mild hybrid can’t go as far on electricity alone as the PHEV but still averages up to 52.5mpg officially. It offers respectable performance, although it feels like it’s labouring at times due to the keenness of the automatic gearbox to shift up.
