With its sporty look and futuristic interior, the Peugeot 3008 is part of the wide-shouldered C-SUV segment. The quality of the interiors and finishes is undeniable, and the 3008 rides well on the road, but the design, primarily focused on comfort, does not make it as dynamic as the exterior might suggest.

Welcome to the SUV: Peugeot 3008 he abandons the appearance of an eccentric minivan and turns into one universal sport so sharp that it looks like it was cut with a hatchet.

After changing the style of the brand, of course, first with the Peugeot 208, then with the 308, now with 3008 yes, an even more noticeable step forward has been taken.

Especially interior, where you can breathe almost futuristic air and high-quality - I don't know, if I say so - German. Merit i-Cockpit dashboard second generation, now with fully digital instruments and spacecraft, complete with LED lighting.

La GT version The Peugeot 3008 of our test is then equipped with the most powerful diesel BlueHDI da 180 CV e Automatic transmission EAT6.

And as standard, it also boasts all sorts of options, chrome plating and comfort, present in the price list (there is not much to choose from in the list so far). In short, in a crowded and definitely important segment (Tiguan, Qashqai, Sportage) the model Peugeot 3008 he enters with broad shoulders and, judging by the looks that attract him, even with the correct cards. Let's see how this goes in detail.

city

Long SUV 445 см e long 184 such as Peugeot 3008 she should not look for fertile soil in the city, but she is not as clumsy as she might seem. The new 3008 fights traffic very well: the turning radius is impressive - it almost looks like a big Smart, so it turns in a small space - and the BlueHDI engine with 180 hp. and a torque of 400 Nm pulls very low, which is an important feature. in urban use. There visibility then the front is good, the back is a little less, but thanks to the standard parking sensors GT (with cameras that “look” at 180 degrees) there are no problems.

Outside the city

Despite the sporty and aggressive look, Peugeot 3008 demonstrates a decidedly soft set-up, making it extremely enjoyable in relaxed driving, but not very harsh between turns.

This is dynamic behavior that goes against his style (some rivals are much “flattering” at the wheel), but that doesn't mean you feel like you're on a boat at every turn: suspensions they resist rolling quite well, but as the pace increases, there is a noticeable pitch when braking.

But it doesn't matter: driving pleasure Peugeot 3008 features lightweight and uniform steering, acoustic comfort (it is very well soundproofed) and the ability to fly over pits even with 19 inch wheels.

Driving every day is truly enjoyable and that driving pleasure is the most important thing for an SUV. Engine 2.0 BluHDi with 180 CV and 400 Nm more than enough to pull a 3008: House claims a sprint in 8,9 seconds and a top speed of 211 km / h at consumption 4,8 l / 100 km in a mixed cycle.

It is necessary to blow the accelerator, however, in order to keep up with the data declared by the House, for example, in real use, this is 5,6 l / 100 km more than for an SUV almost. 1.600 kg from 180 hp it's not bad at all. 

шосе

La Peugeot 3008 you are not afraid to grind kilometers: with Adaptive Cruise Control и massage seats you are traveling in first class, while the engine at 130 km / h only moves at 2.000 rpm, and its voice is not heard. The rustle is also quite discreet, despite the height, as well as the rolling noise of the wheels.

Life on board

Thei-Cockpit 2 (cabin) Peugeot 3008 looks like the fruit of the work of a sculptor of modern art; and in this case it should be a compliment. Efforts to raise the quality bar are even more palpable in the full sense of the word: high quality soft plastics galore, hard plastics pleasant to look at, seats made from a mix leather-alcantara® profiles and futuristic design.

Il small steering wheel it is now better positioned than in the past, so reading the instruments (fully digital and customizable) is no longer a problem. The only criticism I can make is that there is barely enough room for rear passengers, which costs her an 8 on the report card instead of a 9. maybe a couple for the head. On the other hand, the situation is good trunkHaving 520 liters capacity (1482 liters with the seats folded) and has very easy access and has a "square shape", and the tailgate can be opened with a "kick" under the rear bumper, in case you bark at your hands.
