The Peugeot 3008 is a fun-looking SUV with a big boot, stylish interior and decent levels of equipment, but it takes a while to get used to the quirky small steering wheel and high-up instrument cluster
Pros Stylish inside and out Big boot Efficient engines
Cons No four-wheel-drive option Entry-level diesel is slow Oddly positioned instruments
The 3008 would have to be the best Peugeot I’ve driven apart from the 308 and I was rather forlorn to hand back the keys.
Pros Bold, attractive styling HUD instrument panel/advanced graphics Comfortable, luxury interior Tech features Dynamic handling Large panoramic roof Powered tailgate
Cons Flat topped steering wheel No powered seats
Pros Slots into daily life. Tech-heavy but not baffling. Refined, safe
Cons A little dull to drive. Stiffish ride. Only one engine at launch
Pros Good safety kit Competitive finance deals Improved on-board tech
Cons Poor CVT gearbox Smaller boot than rivals Fidgety ride on big wheels
Pros Practical, solid interior Lots of standard kit Comfortable at a cruise
Cons Not much fun to drive Boot space is a bit limited Infotainment can be laggy
