Come on. All this moaning about the interior and pulling bits that look really well anchored. The interior is aesthetically AMAZING. It looks like the interior designers really enjoyed their work rather than trying to be as bland as possible and minimize everything for cheapness. Not only class-leading but in a class of its own.
Yup, agreed with this "oh, look at this moving" pushing up & down with force. There's some comic show, maybe the Fast Show?, or Harry Enfield, that he goes round doing this until it breaks, "shoddy work!" he retorts. So many grab & push & pull the centre console & they move a tad but left alone they are fine, the ones that adjust to & fro will move a bit. It's a car! Not a brick house.
I love how it looks on the inside. Honestly, I feel like it has one of the best cockpits out there. The outside isn't outstanding, but then again, few SUVs look good in my opinion. Price is a bit steep, but I would consider buying one used in a few years.
It's the only one that has this hemmed in cockpit that I've seen so far. Not for me, it feels cramped & not spacious. You either like it or not, hands up..
Some feedback on the video, which otherwise was very good: 1) You need to mention the charging curve, not just the top speed. It makes a huge difference if it can hold 160kw for 30 seconds or 20 minutes. 2) Don't forget to mention whether or not it has battery preconditioning for DC charging.
@@etbadaboumPeugeot scams you with the number though because others quote the minutes from 10-80 and this has a slow charge rate even for the quoted 20-80. I guess it’s fine for a Peugeot.
So... you didn't like the car, then? Because I honestly haven't seen the review of ANY car in years when the tester "casually tried" to state so many "flaws" and complaints about the car as in this one! I'm amazed that you didn't complain about the level of its tire pressure....
It's about time the WLTP method of assessing range was reworked because the figures it provides are becoming meaningless. I am a huge fan of EVs and am on my second one but there is no way on earth that a square box weighing 2t+ with a 98kwh battery underneath it is going to get anywhere near 430 miles at 4.4 miles per kwh. Kia are one of the class leaders in efficiency but the smaller and very efficient Niro gets real world 4m/kwh. This huge blob ain't beating that by 10% - just not happening. It is likely to be 300 miles in winter and no more than 340 in summer.
I agree they could be more pessimistic (more like America's EPA) but as with MPG estimates they can only do so much, too many factors can effect range - driving style, weather, how much weight you are carrying, what tyres you have on the car, etc - it's almost impossible to give anything other than vague "it's probably about X"
Most important is not really that it is super realistic for everybody but that it represents a usual daily driving and that it is repeatable and comparable. For the rest, you have serious reviewers like Bjorn Nyland giving you all the info you will ever need
@@JamesSmith-qs4hx You guys just make things up. You can go at Max speed, in winter, and use only 60% and it still will give you more then 60 miles The car has an oficial range for different conditions, the 435 is an average in average conditions. It can do more or less depending on how you drive But in NO WAY, will the range be reduced to 100 miles Lastly, you don't need to use only 20-80%, you can charge to 100%. Short frequent charges and charging in not so hot conditions are the priorities if you worry about battery lifespan
It is. You’re basically paying to cart around a giant battery with you. I’d reckon the smaller battery models will be the sweet spot of the range. With charging speeds like this who needs the range.

It has more range then the Model Y. 100km more range I really don't understand you people. Tesla shows a product that for 45k gives you 450km of range. Peugeot gives you a product that for less then 47k gives you 527km of range, arguably better looking, 8 years waranty, chat GPT included in the vehicle, what more do you want???
Another excellent review, pointing out the positives and negatives in equal measure. A decent looking car but it appears to have too many flaws. The interior features too many chunky traits and I find the claw day time led lights rather tiresome too. I'd go for the Kia Niro or Tesla Model Y - they seem so much more complete.
4.4 miles / kWh from a car with a 98kWh battery. Really ? That’s a very ambitious claim. I’ll be impressed if it does more than 300 miles in the real world.
As far as I remember saloons never had rear wipers. I don’t really understand the complaint. Only cars with relatively vertical rear screens needed them because they got low air circulation (so hatchbacks or station wagons)
Range is not so impressive when you factor in the huge battery, too many manufacturers are just lazily increasing the battery size rather than focusing on efficiency. I actually like Peugeot and French car design in general but no way would I buy that over at a premium over the Model Y.
They had to keep the boxy style of the 3008, they still maxed out efficiency while keeping the shape, it was everything but lazy And you get more range then the model Y
Yeah, I’d take smaller battery, quick charging and a much lower price than this really. Battery sizes are getting excessive when you could get much more fun and efficiency out of a lighter package.
Tesla and BYD and MG and Polestar are bringing cars that have a lot less weight on superfluous stuff (stellantis = too much focus on complicated design, too less focus on optimization) and focus on real good stuff. I see Peugeot for example: they complicate a lot the design that when people step in, it’s too confusing! Tesla and polestar for example, have a clean uncomplicated design and a very good engine/battery/software and that is what matters! They should’ve had a cleaner lighter design to be lighter, cheaper, improve performance, inside space and…why FWD instead of RWD?! It makes the car less agile!
@@ricarmig Yes and no. They had to keep the boxy shape because its a sucessor to the 3008. But if you look at other brands, like alfa romeo, chrysler, dodge, fiat, Leapmotor (if you count it as a stellantis brand) and maserati, all of them have more curvy and aerodynamic designs. Lancia is likely to make less boxy shapes to, stellantis has a lot of brands and a lot of fans. So they can eithout much problems make multiple shapes for whats basicly the same car
Nice to see the new platform with the battery and range options. Especially from Stellantis... where all current models appear to have just the one battery option. Range is what everyone has been asking for. As usual Stellantis are believing that their cars are worth more than they really are....
@joaquimbarbosa896 Try insurance on a Model Y in the UK...!! So far the furthest range Tesla is the new 2024 Model 3 Long Range... Which only gives 295 true not 380 as advertised. So whilst the Peugeot may not be perfect.... it may be £1,000 per year, cheaper to insure. So worth looking at , at least.
I dont get it, people are losing their minds over BYD or Tesla, and this has bigger batteries, better design lets be honest, and you still think they should sell at 30K€? Wth
@@FGGiskardthis thing costs as much as a premium ICE car, whilst having less complexity due to not having ICE and all auxiliary systems. Please don't start the BATTERIES ARE EXPENSIVE argument, it's not 2011 anymore. This is pure profiteering through discounted future loss of servicing revenue stream recuperation.
Again very critical against Peugeot and Citroen. Fair but really emphasizing the car's weeknesses. To me, this e-3008 looks good inside and out, servicable, it is made in Europe and you will probably buy it below the current retail price.
EV’s aren’t getting cheaper. What you will see in the near future is small EV’s at the 20k mark. I do drive an EV but I’ve managed to stop back from the polarising debates. In many instances a diesel or petrol makes more sense. There are aspects of EV that enjoyable and a benefit. Most likely the future will be mixture of things and EV’s won’t be the EV’s we have now, that’s innovation and progress.
as per other Peugeot evs suspect there's NO towing possibility for this?? Or do you have different info for this - and what is limit if it is possible to tow anything??
Disappointed that handling has deteriorated - but I suppose that's what happens when you add weight to a car. I have a 2022 3008 GT and it handles very well and gives an excellent ride (with the 18" wheels).
I bought new a Peugeot 3008 in 2019. The electric version is unaffordable. I can also go from near empty to full in only 2 minutes by putting a liquid in it called petrol that gives me a range of around 450 Miles
How did the claimed range compare to tested one on this model? Would be good to estimate how close they can get to 435m on the long range one. Really don’t like what they’re done with the front design, the previous gen had a really cool design going (all last gen Peugeots in general) but this “grille” sizing and light configuration is not looking good. Was excited clicking on the vid but left quite underwhelmed.
I was looking forward to this coming out but the price makes you think maybe I’ll get the model y, but in 1 year it will be £22000 with 10k on the mileage so that’s when I will buy 1.
So they're claiming 4.46 miles per kwh for the small battery and 4.44 miles per kwh for the long range. There mustn't be much of a weight penalty for the bigger battery! I'd love to see someone manage those numbers in the real world but until I do, I just won't believe it.
Weight doesn't have that much impact on consumption. Weight usually has an influence on rolling resistance, but since most EVs use low-rolling resistance tires, at least in summer (and during WLTP testing, which is summer conditions at relatively low average speed), it's understandable that consumption figures aren't that different. Notably, at highway speeds, where WLTP truly falls short, the difference should be even smaller. This is because aerodynamics become the chief opposing force, which isn't affected by weight.
I wonder if the screens will keep freezing as they do on my 208. Before setting off I make sure the heating and radio are on reasonable settings because there's a fair chance they'll be stuck later on. That's Peugeot quality for you. Maybe okay for a 17k car but let's hope it doesn't happen at 45-50k
Last year I rented a Seat Arona and on several occasions it's infotainment system decided to shutdown and reboot. A known issue with the latest VW group systems apparently.
handsome vehicle 50 k for a 300 mile range and a nearly 9 seconds too 60 or 62 mph , could buy as of today not 1, but 2 mg hatchbacks via autotrader with longer range and 2.5 seconds faster to 60 mph for same monies. GL to the stellantis group
We are living the second age or automobiles. 130 year ago, cars were stupidly expensive, unreliable, without range and without many options to refuel. We are somewhat at the point of curve right after MODEL T was introduced and it was not so popular yet.
Surprised that this video didn't mention the Renault Scenic E-Tech. If I was in the market for a crossover like this then I would go for the Scenic without question. Mainly due to the starting price of £37,495, £8355 less than the E3008!! Not cheap, but definitely more reasonable than the E3008!
What is it with the incessant niggling about the climate controls, I set the climate to 21⁰ on auto and never touch it again. If you do need to adjust the temp just use voice control, simples....
Importantly both battery versions are not LFP, right? So it's not recommended to charge to 100% on a daily base. Specs wise I would go for the model Y. I'm looking forward to the e 5008 though as it's one of the few 7 seats EVs on the market.
Excellente vidéo qui démontre que...je ne suis pas prêt pour un véhicule électrique ! Quant à l'offre de moteurs thermiques sur ce 3008, elle est indigente...
I love the design of the new 3008 on the outside, honestly believe nothing comes close, was looking at getting one next year but really cannot stand the design of the inside, hate the "buttons" on the wheel hate the display and hate that so much is taken up by the temperature controls, I hate it in my 2008 so much of the screen gets taken up, the left side controls never get used there's no need to have it on both sides. New Skoda kodiaq is looking better and better.
But I can get the top of the line model in petrol for 37k and about 40k for diesel. I have had several different models of the 3008 first one from around 2011 . The one I have now is the hybrid and I will probably be changing brand on the next car. This is horrible to look at inside.
I bought 3008 hybrid4 to replace my 508 diesel hybrid4 and must say a bit disappointed with overall quality and feel at that premium price. Car is 3 years old and it's sitting for a month now at the garage waiting for spare battery pack. Peugeot diesel cars were brilliant so i think no more peugoet for me.
@@adrianbyron-parker5797Spot on, just substitute range with fuel economy. Trying to get those quoted MPG numbers is actually harder than getting the quoted range, EVs are more forgiving in how you drive them, as long as it's below 50 mph.
A good guide is whatever the WLTP stated range is, take 50 miles off it to get closer to a real world range. So a 400 mile WLTP range car should get you 350 miles pretty comfortably. etc. And then it may be a touch lower than that in very very cold conditions.
Yes but you can get petrol anywhere whereas with an EV the only way to drive is on the motorway system. Still you can insure with Admiral who'll come to you to give you a top up hopefully not from a diesel fuelled generator.
I’m guessing (-hoping-) there could be a longer and more vertical-backed 5008 version on the way? Ride not very comfortable and not knowing what the front wheels are doing doesn’t sound very Peugeot, though…
The e-5008 should be coming later this year. As for the ride, every other car journalist I've seen has said it's more comfortable and less sporty than the previous model, so I'd take that review with a grain of salt and go test drive it when it becomes available so you can judge it yourself. It should definitely be softer than a Tesla Model Y, which is what I'm looking for.
The interior looks very modern and fancy, but the front passenger seems to be far away from everything. So when they want to do anything on the infotainment screen, it won't be as easy as it should :(
Put four people in, bags for a weekend away trip, in winter, lights on, heating on, music playing, phones charging, batteries effected by the cold, then report the mileage, in thecreal world, you'd be looking at half that, 50k, give your head a shake
We've just been awarded PIP for my son and are entitled to a mobility car. The amount of push for me to go electric waa unreal. I've been driving an old 19 year old Zafira for the past 9 years. It's been a workhorse. I don't think electric is for me especially on longer journeys. I can't deal with planning a journey to recharge or whether or not I can turn on the AC or heaters.
You can go for a hybrid. The Nissan Qashqui e-Power is a hybrid & the engine only charges the bty which powers the electric motor that drives the wheels. So you get a EV driving but you don't have to plug in at all. Pop into a dealership & discuss. I'm in the same boat & I'm testing one this week.
This reviewer never, ever finds many positives with a Peugeot. I have had 2, currently a 2098, and all his observations hardly resonate with my years of driving these cars. He's not a balanced critic.
Its simple, just avoid these first generation BEVs, go hybrid and wait for a meaningful jump in battery tech, weight and price, then things start looking interesting. PS: Model Y has one of the worst rides ive experienced from a new car.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Doug, for NOT calling the front boot by that nauseating 'frunk' Americanism. We've had front boots in 911's and Beetles since long before Musk was even born......... NO Tesla fanboys - he did NOT invent the concept of a front boot (even a Ferrari 308 from the 70's had two boots front and rear!). 👍
Oh, wobbly bits.. really, you were pressing & pushing up & down very firmly & it was hardly moving with that intensity. So many reviewers do this until it nearly breaks then give it the thumbs down.
I agree. Late last year I decided to buy a newer car and wanted a diesel. After a fair time looking I found and ex demo 2022 Peugeot 3008GT HDi (2.0L diesel). This was the last of the Peugeot diesels coming to Australia. The 2.0L diesel is a great engine - also got it at a huge discount off new price. I live in Australia so EV's will be a bit of a problem until our infrastructure improves.
Its getting more difficult to have a smooth ride in an EV due to the massive weight of these behemoths. Trouble is to get the range (don't forget to reduce manufactures figure by 30%) they go and stick in bigger (heavier) batteries. Do we honestly think that thing would last 10 years - its all too flimsy.
I feel like Peugeot missed an opportunity here. Why wasn’t this called the 4008? And then we can have a more traditionally shaped 3008 like the outgoing generation. They’d essentially be the same car but it would appeal to more buyers. Not everyone wants a coupé-like SUV.
My goodness how did we drive and cope without touchscreens and why cant you use a mobile phone while driving but faff about on a screen to do most fuctions .
Lets face it the only reason people will get an electric car is as a company vehicle with low BiK and because companies are only offering electric vehicles. No way would I buy one as a personal vehicle
All looks good until you hear that eye watering price- 50 000 £ and that is not even the long range version. The prices of those EVs are getting really out of hand.
Okay, I am heartened to see the option of more range, but disappointed to note that once again - it’s jam tomorrow. By the time this long range option comes out. I would not be surprised if Tesla has beaten it anyway.
The car will launch this year...Tesla doesn't even know when their 25k model will come... You get more range, waranty and features for the same price. How is the model Y better??
@@joaquimbarbosa896 I suspect Tesla know exactly when their 25k model will arrive, you don't - that is true. One thing the Model Y has is it is actually on sale and you can buy one and it has more range than the Peugeot currently available. And a Frunk. Stuffing a car with batteries is one way to increase range, a very expensive one, but an option. This vehicle has less horsepower with less acceleration and not sure where you think the warranty is better - maybe it depends on the country you are in, because it sure isn't the case where I am. And I had a massive dust up with Peugeot over warranty concerning a 2014 2008 I once owned. Never again. I am afraid the dealerships were truly appalling as well. Maybe things are better now - they could not be any worse. At the moment I am also part of a group action suing Peugeot for their version of dieselgate. I am glad they are working on EVs but don't for one second fool yourself that anything by Stellantis is better than Tesla.
You know what @whatcar , why are all these new EV’s are now above the 40k tax bracket!!! How could a Peugeot and all the other makes now come into the luxury car tax bracket!! Not only will you have to pay VED from 2025 but you have to pay roughly £390 annually for 5 years!!! So after 2025 you will be paying over £500 roughly per year if they don’t increase the VED

@@FGGiskardthis thing costs as much as a premium ICE car, whilst having less complexity due to not having ICE and all auxiliary systems. Please don't start the BATTERIES ARE EXPENSIVE argument, it's not 2011 anymore. This is pure profiteering through discounted future loss of servicing revenue stream recuperation.
5 out of the first 6 comments are scammers. How sad.
You didn't mention what the real world range is for this car! I bet its not very good in the real world is it?
Again very critical against Peugeot and Citroen. Fair but really emphasizing the car's weeknesses. To me, this e-3008 looks good inside and out, servicable, it is made in Europe and you will probably buy it below the current retail price.
All the EVangelists keep telling us EVs are getting cheaper........... Now we have a £50k Peugeot!
Which isn’t available yet!
Ridiculous amount of money
EV’s aren’t getting cheaper. What you will see in the near future is small EV’s at the 20k mark. I do drive an EV but I’ve managed to stop back from the polarising debates. In many instances a diesel or petrol makes more sense. There are aspects of EV that enjoyable and a benefit. Most likely the future will be mixture of things and EV’s won’t be the EV’s we have now, that’s innovation and progress.
Wait for either the Renault 5 in September or the Tesla Model 2 in 2025 and thank me later.
@@alancobbin that’s where it’s going to go, the 5, 4, Twingo and others.
If it is anything like the 3008 hybrid4 you you will likely get only 100 miles in winter driving!
as per other Peugeot evs suspect there's NO towing possibility for this?? Or do you have different info for this - and what is limit if it is possible to tow anything??
Disappointed that handling has deteriorated - but I suppose that's what happens when you add weight to a car. I have a 2022 3008 GT and it handles very well and gives an excellent ride (with the 18" wheels).
I bought new a Peugeot 3008 in 2019. The electric version is unaffordable. I can also go from near empty to full in only 2 minutes by putting a liquid in it called petrol that gives me a range of around 450 Miles
And costs you a fortune to fuel with the Toxic fuel known as petrol! But hey keep adding to climate change and bad health around you!
How did the claimed range compare to tested one on this model? Would be good to estimate how close they can get to 435m on the long range one.
Really don’t like what they’re done with the front design, the previous gen had a really cool design going (all last gen Peugeots in general) but this “grille” sizing and light configuration is not looking good.
Was excited clicking on the vid but left quite underwhelmed.
I was looking forward to this coming out but the price makes you think maybe I’ll get the model y, but in 1 year it will be £22000 with 10k on the mileage so that’s when I will buy 1.
So they're claiming 4.46 miles per kwh for the small battery and 4.44 miles per kwh for the long range. There mustn't be much of a weight penalty for the bigger battery!
I'd love to see someone manage those numbers in the real world but until I do, I just won't believe it.
Weight doesn't have that much impact on consumption. Weight usually has an influence on rolling resistance, but since most EVs use low-rolling resistance tires, at least in summer (and during WLTP testing, which is summer conditions at relatively low average speed), it's understandable that consumption figures aren't that different.
Notably, at highway speeds, where WLTP truly falls short, the difference should be even smaller. This is because aerodynamics become the chief opposing force, which isn't affected by weight.
I wonder if the screens will keep freezing as they do on my 208. Before setting off I make sure the heating and radio are on reasonable settings because there's a fair chance they'll be stuck later on. That's Peugeot quality for you. Maybe okay for a 17k car but let's hope it doesn't happen at 45-50k
Last year I rented a Seat Arona and on several occasions it's infotainment system decided to shutdown and reboot. A known issue with the latest VW group systems apparently.
Never happened in 3 yrs of ownership of a 2020MY 3008

Average drivers are being priced and legislated off the road at a time when public transport is getting worse and worse
Brexit and the productivity decline of the UK, together with greater and greater returns to capital over labour. We are getting relatively poorer
handsome vehicle 50 k for a 300 mile range and a nearly 9 seconds too 60 or 62 mph , could buy as of today not 1, but 2 mg hatchbacks via autotrader with longer range and 2.5 seconds faster to 60 mph for same monies. GL to the stellantis group
Not for me thanks. I'll consider electric cars when solid state batteries are the norm in the market.
I think it looks amazing, im worried i wont see over that screen though lol
Has anyone tried to fit a wheel chair in the back?
We are living the second age or automobiles. 130 year ago, cars were stupidly expensive, unreliable, without range and without many options to refuel.
We are somewhat at the point of curve right after MODEL T was introduced and it was not so popular yet.
But the quality of a Stellantis product is 💩💩💩
My daughter has a Fiat 500e and she has had no problem quality-wise.
I’ll wait for the hybrid to come to the uk
Surprised that this video didn't mention the Renault Scenic E-Tech. If I was in the market for a crossover like this then I would go for the Scenic without question. Mainly due to the starting price of £37,495, £8355 less than the E3008!! Not cheap, but definitely more reasonable than the E3008!
What is it with the incessant niggling about the climate controls, I set the climate to 21⁰ on auto and never touch it again. If you do need to adjust the temp just use voice control, simples....
If it had a VW badge he'd be jizzing with praises.
Importantly both battery versions are not LFP, right? So it's not recommended to charge to 100% on a daily base.
Specs wise I would go for the model Y.
I'm looking forward to the e 5008 though as it's one of the few 7 seats EVs on the market.
Why would you fully charge for daily use ?
Well, that's true. Doesn't mean you can't though, but spare long trips it's usually not needed.
Over £43,000 minimum for over 2 tonnes of car. What will it be worth when 2 years old, £15,000/£20,000 on a good day
Bigger battery only means you have to wait longer to charge, Tesla Y SR can do 10-80 in 18-19 min I hear.
Excellente vidéo qui démontre que...je ne suis pas prêt pour un véhicule électrique ! Quant à l'offre de moteurs thermiques sur ce 3008, elle est indigente...
I wonder how the gear shifter is positioned for rhd version
I love the design of the new 3008 on the outside, honestly believe nothing comes close, was looking at getting one next year but really cannot stand the design of the inside, hate the "buttons" on the wheel hate the display and hate that so much is taken up by the temperature controls, I hate it in my 2008 so much of the screen gets taken up, the left side controls never get used there's no need to have it on both sides. New Skoda kodiaq is looking better and better.
Really, good energy! Great, review! Post Scriptum Please, sell Versailles, et al!
Stellantis also seem quite good at punchy discounts once a car has been on sale a while.
But I can get the top of the line model in petrol for 37k and about 40k for diesel.
I have had several different models of the 3008 first one from around 2011 .
The one I have now is the hybrid and I will probably be changing brand on the next car.
This is horrible to look at inside.
I bought 3008 hybrid4 to replace my 508 diesel hybrid4 and must say a bit disappointed with overall quality and feel at that premium price. Car is 3 years old and it's sitting for a month now at the garage waiting for spare battery pack. Peugeot diesel cars were brilliant so i think no more peugoet for me.
I get the impression that Evs generally do about 75% of the quoted range !
Drive everywhere at no more than 40mph, and you might get close to it.
Just like a petrol car ..LOL
@@adrianbyron-parker5797Spot on, just substitute range with fuel economy. Trying to get those quoted MPG numbers is actually harder than getting the quoted range, EVs are more forgiving in how you drive them, as long as it's below 50 mph.
A good guide is whatever the WLTP stated range is, take 50 miles off it to get closer to a real world range. So a 400 mile WLTP range car should get you 350 miles pretty comfortably. etc.
And then it may be a touch lower than that in very very cold conditions.
Yes but you can get petrol anywhere whereas with an EV the only way to drive is on the motorway system. Still you can insure with Admiral who'll come to you to give you a top up hopefully not from a diesel fuelled generator.
I’m guessing (-hoping-) there could be a longer and more vertical-backed 5008 version on the way?
Ride not very comfortable and not knowing what the front wheels are doing doesn’t sound very Peugeot, though…
A new 5008 is confirmed
The e-5008 should be coming later this year. As for the ride, every other car journalist I've seen has said it's more comfortable and less sporty than the previous model, so I'd take that review with a grain of salt and go test drive it when it becomes available so you can judge it yourself. It should definitely be softer than a Tesla Model Y, which is what I'm looking for.
The sloping rear and split grille at the front reminds me of the Pontiac Aztek
For a cramped car like this one I wouldn't want a 400 mile range.
Excellent review as always. Thank you.
You don't have to drive it 400 miles before you stop to rest or whatever......
It'll be interesting to see how Stellantis price the Vauxhall/Opel Grandland and the Citroen C5 Aircross?
Hopefully both will be a bit cheaper!
The interior looks very modern and fancy, but the front passenger seems to be far away from everything. So when they want to do anything on the infotainment screen, it won't be as easy as it should :(
How easily can the passenger reach the air conditioning controls without distracting the driver?
Just reading the comments here, why are people knocking this good looking car?and that long range version is game changing!! the price though??
Put four people in, bags for a weekend away trip, in winter, lights on, heating on, music playing, phones charging, batteries effected by the cold, then report the mileage, in thecreal world, you'd be looking at half that, 50k, give your head a shake
My car will do 1000 miles per charge of 1 AAA battery. About as reliable a milage declaration as the car makers provide.
We've just been awarded PIP for my son and are entitled to a mobility car. The amount of push for me to go electric waa unreal. I've been driving an old 19 year old Zafira for the past 9 years. It's been a workhorse. I don't think electric is for me especially on longer journeys. I can't deal with planning a journey to recharge or whether or not I can turn on the AC or heaters.
You can go for a hybrid. The Nissan Qashqui e-Power is a hybrid & the engine only charges the bty which powers the electric motor that drives the wheels. So you get a EV driving but you don't have to plug in at all. Pop into a dealership & discuss. I'm in the same boat & I'm testing one this week.
Looks insane!! It will be my next car, but not this electric version!
This reviewer never, ever finds many positives with a Peugeot. I have had 2, currently a 2098, and all his observations hardly resonate with my years of driving these cars. He's not a balanced critic.
Its simple, just avoid these first generation BEVs, go hybrid and wait for a meaningful jump in battery tech, weight and price, then things start looking interesting. PS: Model Y has one of the worst rides ive experienced from a new car.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Doug, for NOT calling the front boot by that nauseating 'frunk' Americanism. We've had front boots in 911's and Beetles since long before Musk was even born......... NO Tesla fanboys - he did NOT invent the concept of a front boot (even a Ferrari 308 from the 70's had two boots front and rear!). 👍
Why not drive the car and give us the real
Driving range of this EV I don’t want the claimed range by Peugeot 😂
Absolutely love Peugeots but will never by electric 1.2 PureTech for me
Oh, wobbly bits.. really, you were pressing & pushing up & down very firmly & it was hardly moving with that intensity. So many reviewers do this until it nearly breaks then give it the thumbs down.
Where does the sparewheel stay?
Im waiting for the DS4 EV to be reviewed....
435 miles what utter bollocks 😂
That's like R1.2 million, in my country once you cross a million, we are talking X5 territory... Peugeot aren't supposed to be in that territory
It has a Cd of 0.28, a 73 kWh battery and it's a recycled ICE chassis. If that gets 400 km let alone 400+ miles, I'll be surprised.
Shame the new 3008 isn't available with a diesel option..
I agree. Late last year I decided to buy a newer car and wanted a diesel. After a fair time looking I found and ex demo 2022 Peugeot 3008GT HDi (2.0L diesel). This was the last of the Peugeot diesels coming to Australia. The 2.0L diesel is a great engine - also got it at a huge discount off new price. I live in Australia so EV's will be a bit of a problem until our infrastructure improves.
It’s very cramped inside, the Scenic is so much better.
No electric steering wheel, ajustment or electric seat adjustment. Considering the price
Cool car. But I'd take an ICE version and ignore this electric one.
The rear end is hideous. Front not so bad. Don’t like the alloys on the press car. Interior and dash are stunning. Best in clas.
Its getting more difficult to have a smooth ride in an EV due to the massive weight of these behemoths. Trouble is to get the range (don't forget to reduce manufactures figure by 30%) they go and stick in bigger (heavier) batteries. Do we honestly think that thing would last 10 years - its all too flimsy.
I feel like Peugeot missed an opportunity here. Why wasn’t this called the 4008? And then we can have a more traditionally shaped 3008 like the outgoing generation. They’d essentially be the same car but it would appeal to more buyers. Not everyone wants a coupé-like SUV.
So more range by throwing a bigger battery then??? That's a really lazy way to solve the range problem by Stellantis
I like it
My goodness how did we drive and cope without touchscreens and why cant you use a mobile phone while driving but faff about on a screen to do most fuctions .
Does this new one have AutoHold ?
Lets face it the only reason people will get an electric car is as a company vehicle with low BiK and because companies are only offering electric vehicles. No way would I buy one as a personal vehicle
All looks good until you hear that eye watering price- 50 000 £ and that is not even the long range version. The prices of those EVs are getting really out of hand.
Less then 45k for 527km of range
Looks better than any Tesla, inside and out.
Curious how these will sell @60k Eur. :)))
Okay, I am heartened to see the option of more range, but disappointed to note that once again - it’s jam tomorrow. By the time this long range option comes out. I would not be surprised if Tesla has beaten it anyway.
The car will launch this year...Tesla doesn't even know when their 25k model will come...
You get more range, waranty and features for the same price. How is the model Y better??
@@joaquimbarbosa896 I suspect Tesla know exactly when their 25k model will arrive, you don't - that is true. One thing the Model Y has is it is actually on sale and you can buy one and it has more range than the Peugeot currently available. And a Frunk. Stuffing a car with batteries is one way to increase range, a very expensive one, but an option. This vehicle has less horsepower with less acceleration and not sure where you think the warranty is better - maybe it depends on the country you are in, because it sure isn't the case where I am. And I had a massive dust up with Peugeot over warranty concerning a 2014 2008 I once owned. Never again. I am afraid the dealerships were truly appalling as well. Maybe things are better now - they could not be any worse. At the moment I am also part of a group action suing Peugeot for their version of dieselgate. I am glad they are working on EVs but don't for one second fool yourself that anything by Stellantis is better than Tesla.
I prefer boxy design. Not these super curvy cross overs
By the time you get 400 miles it will be on fire and no insurance as companies are dropping insurance on ev's like lightning, mobile barbecue.
What about AWD version ?
It won't be available until 2025
I was spoiled by the big screen and at the point it's in... shame
You know what @whatcar , why are all these new EV’s are now above the 40k tax bracket!!!
How could a Peugeot and all the other makes now come into the luxury car tax bracket!!
Not only will you have to pay VED from 2025 but you have to pay roughly £390 annually for 5 years!!!
So after 2025 you will be paying over £500 roughly per year if they don’t increase the VED
seems to be really ugly this model. What about the PHEV version? Some people don't want a boring electric with low range
Manual seat adjustment???!!!
