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) is a seven-seater that successfully bridges the gap between traditional MPVs and modern SUVs. With its striking design, clever interior packaging, and versatile seating arrangement, it offers genuine practicality for growing families. The second-generation 5008 introduced a futuristic i-Cockpit interior with configurable digital dials and a large touchscreen, whilst maintaining the MPV spirit of its predecessor. With all seven seats in place, the boot offers 167 litres; fold the third-row seats and you gain 780 litres, or 2,150 litres with all rear seats down.

The engine line-up includes efficient PureTech petrol engines (1.2 and 1.6-litre) and BlueHDI diesels (1.5 and 2.0-litre), paired with six or eight-speed automatic gearboxes. The 1.5-litre diesel is the efficiency champion, returning up to 60.8mpg, whilst the 1.2-litre petrol suits urban driving with figures around 48mpg. A mild-hybrid option arrived near the end of production. Running costs are competitive, with affordable servicing plans available from Peugeot. The 5008 drives well for its size, offering a surprisingly nimble feel and well-contained body roll, though it lacks all-wheel drive and a full hybrid option.

Best for: Family buyers seeking a spacious seven-seater with excellent interior design, economical running costs, and practical versatility without premium pricing.

Not ideal for: Those requiring all-wheel drive capability, a plug-in hybrid option, or the most intuitive infotainment system on the market.
