Peugeot 2008 cars

What types of used Peugeot 2008 cars are there?

The Peugeot 2008 took inspiration from its bigger brother – the 3008 – in 2019, when it got a major redesign. Its key rivals are the Renault Captur, Nissan Juke, VW T-Cross and the Ford Puma.   

Over time, the 2008 has become one of the French manufacturer’s most important and popular models.  

The recent generation has seen it transform into a proper SUV, making it more practical, spacious and an even better choice for those with families. Along with the bodywork, the interior had a big upgrade and is hugely impressive in terms of its design and its build quality.  

With the latest generation, Peugeot also brought an array of petrol- and diesel-powered engines, with all of them being incredibly economical, while the electric version is equally impressive. Trims include the Active, Allure and GT model.

It’s a great example of the typical Peugeot manufacturing – high-quality and great value for money.

What features does the Peugeot 2008 have?

In the Peugeot 2008, there’s a range of features on offer that are impressive even at entry-level and match the plush interior.   

The entry-level model gets air-conditioning, cruise control and rear parking sensors. If you upgrade to the GT trim you’ll get added sat-nav, while the Allure Premium model features a futuristic 3D version of the i-Cockpit.  

The flashy i-Cockpit presents your traditional dials and dashboard in a modern and crisp digital screen, working in tandem with a central 10-inch touchscreen that's also fully compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.  

Like any other modern Peugeot, the 2008’s steering wheel sits low and you look over it rather than through it, which gives it a unique driving experience.
