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 clever interior packaging, the 5008 offers genuine space for families, featuring three individual second-row seats with individual Isofix mountings and fold-flat third-row seating. The boot expands from 167 litres with all seats in place to a cavernous 2,150 litres with all rear seats folded. Its futuristic i-Cockpit interior, featuring a small steering wheel, configurable digital dials, and a large touchscreen, creates an engaging driving environment, though the infotainment system requires some adjustment to master.

Engine options include economical PureTech petrol units (1.2 and 1.6-litre) and efficient BlueHDi diesels (1.5 and 2.0-litre), with the 1.5-litre diesel delivering up to 60.8mpg. The 5008 drives with surprising nimbleness for its size, with light steering and well-contained body roll, though the ride can feel firm at low speeds. A mid-life refresh in 2021 brought a more aggressive front grille and headlamps. Running costs are competitive, with fixed-price servicing plans available from Peugeot. The 5008 represents excellent value as a practical, well-equipped family SUV with a smart interior that rivals more premium alternatives.

Best for: Family buyers seeking seven-seat practicality, those prioritising interior space and clever packaging, and drivers wanting economical engines with low running costs.

Not ideal for: Buyers requiring all-wheel-drive capability, those seeking a hybrid option, or those who prefer more intuitive infotainment systems.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 5008 if: You're seeking a practical seven-seater with clever interior packaging, want economical engines with low running costs, or prioritise a smart, well-equipped cabin.

Consider alternatives if: You require all-wheel-drive capability, need a hybrid option, or prefer more intuitive infotainment systems.

Competitive Position: The Peugeot 5008 SUV (2017-2024) is a standout choice in the seven-seat SUV market, offering excellent value and clever interior design that rivals more premium alternatives. Its combination of practical space, economical engines, and smart equipment makes it a compelling proposition for family buyers. Whilst the Skoda Kodiaq offers similar expert ratings and the Citroën C5 Aircross matches user satisfaction, the 5008's superior value score and excellent design with MPV practicality give it a distinct advantage. The absence of all-wheel-drive and hybrid options may deter some buyers, but for those prioritising interior space and running costs, the 5008 represents a highly sensible and rewarding purchase.
