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
The facelifted 2018 Qashqai gets a fresh look, more kit and new tech. It's a good thing, but is it a standout option in the small SUV segment?
Pros Still looks smart Above-average cabin practicality Improved on-road refinement Good cabin build quality AEB now standard across the range
Cons It's pretty expensive Can feel underpowered Key active safety reserved for top models Ti, adaptive cruise not here until mid-2018 Tyre roar, busy ride on 19-inch wheels Still no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto
Pros Spacious interior for size Addition of AEB Good comfort equipment list
Cons Aggressive tyre choice spoils ride Space saver spare tyre No Apple Carplay or Android Auto
