Peugeot 5008 SUV (2017-2024) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Excellent design with MPV practicality	No all-wheel-drive version
Space inside for seven	No hybrid version available
Economical engines	Infotainment system could be better

Quick Summary

The Peugeot 5008 SUV (2017-2024) successfully transitioned from an MPV to a stylish, versatile seven-seater SUV, retaining its practicality. It features a well-appointed, futuristic interior with impressive materials and numerous family-friendly touches, including three individual sliding middle-row seats with Isofix. While the boot is small with all seven seats up (167 litres), dropping the third row expands it to a cavernous 780 litres. Equipment is generous across the range, typically including a 12.3-inch digital instrument display, a central touchscreen, dual-zone climate control, and smartphone connectivity.

Power comes from efficient petrol (1.2 PureTech, 1.6) and diesel (1.5 BlueHDi, 2.0) engines, with a mild-hybrid option introduced later. The 5008 drives surprisingly nimbly for its size, offering light and quick steering with well-contained body roll, making it feel poised. Running costs are low, with the 1.5-litre BlueHDi diesel achieving over 50mpg, making it an economical choice for families. It represents considerable value, offering a compelling package of space, style, and efficiency.

Best for: Families needing a versatile seven-seater, buyers prioritising stylish design and a well-appointed interior, those seeking economical running costs in a larger SUV.

Not ideal for: Buyers who need all-wheel-drive, those prioritising maximum boot space with all seven seats in use, or those who find the i-Cockpit driving position tricky.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 5008 SUV if: You're a family needing a versatile seven-seater, seeking stylish design and a well-appointed interior, or prioritising economical running costs in a larger SUV.

Consider alternatives if: You need all-wheel-drive, maximum boot space with all seven seats in use, or find the i-Cockpit driving position tricky.

Competitive Position: The Peugeot 5008 SUV is a strong contender in the seven-seat SUV market, offering clever interior space and seating packaging, and a smart, appealing interior. Its economical engines, sensible running costs, and generous standard equipment make it a compelling choice for family buyers. While it lacks an all-wheel-drive option or a full plug-in hybrid, its blend of style, practicality, and value often makes it a better buy than similarly priced rivals.
