The first generation was unveiled in July 2009, and officially went on sale in November 2009.[2] The 5008's introduction coincided with the promotion of Peugeot design director Gilles Vidal, whose influence was already beginning to show itself in the firm's models, promising a renaissance in styling direction.[1]

The 5008 shares core structure and mechanical components with the first generation Peugeot 3008.[3] The 5008 was awarded 2010 MPV of the Year by What Car? magazine.[4] Owing to its spacious interior and futuristic design, the 5008 has been developed a loyal fan base who colloquially refer to the car as the 'Space Wagon'.

Facelift

edit

The first generation received a facelift in October 2013. The facelift has also brought a refreshed engine line-up that now includes the PureTech three-cylinder petrol, and the newer BlueHDi diesel options.

The second generation is an SUV, unveiled to the press on 7 September 2016, before a presentation to the public scheduled for the 2016 Paris Motor Show. It is essentially a seven-seater version of the Peugeot 3008, which was to be released in the spring of 2017. Its wheelbase is 165 mm longer, and about 50 kg heavier than the 3008.[9]

The 5008 is assembled in France at the PSA plant in Rennes.[10] Assembly in China takes place at the Dongfeng PSA Plant in Chengdu, together with the 3008 II (called the 4008 in China) and the Citroën C5 Aircross. In China, these three models all share the same platform, engines and transmission.

Design

edit

Unlike the previous generation that was a pure MPV, the 5008 is an SUV to follow the trend in sales. It is actually an extended version of the 3008, presented several months previously. Specific elements include a different front grille and front bumper, and a chrome arch running through the entire pavilion to the bottom of the rear window.

The interior of the 5008 shares the similar iCockpit design from the smaller 3008. In particular, the 8-inch captive touchscreen, but also a 12.3-inch high resolution digital head up panel, is available.

On the other hand, the wheelbase extended to 2.84 m makes it possible to significantly increase the capacity; seven seats are now available, divided into three rows. In the first row, the passenger seat can be shelved to load the long objects. The second row is composed of three independent seats, retractable and adjustable in length and inclination. Finally, the third row consists of two additional seats which can be folded or unfolded individually.

Facelift

edit

A new facelift for the Peugeot 5008 was revealed in September 2020. It emphasises Peugeot’s new design language that can be seen on the 3008 and 308 including, new headlights and taillights, new bumper, new color options, new models, and newer technology.[11]

Hybrid

edit

In February 2023, Peugeot launched the 5008 Hybrid, with the mild hybrid technology reducing fuel consumption by up to 15% compared to the petrol equivalent.[12][13]

The third-generation 5008 was introduced on 20 March 2024, with production set to commence in 2024. The 5008 is essentially the longer version of the 3008 and is based on STLA Medium platform. The 5008 will be produced exclusively at the PSA Sochaux Plant, with the electric motors manufactured and produced by the STELLANTIS-NIDEC joint venture in Trémery, France, and the ACC batteries manufactured at a gigafactory in Douvrin, France.[14][15]

Overview

edit

The 5008 design distinguished by its strong SUV character and retains the boxy shape of its predecessor to maximise interior space, combined with a dynamic silhouette design. There is a new 'Claw Effect' lighting signature using Peugeot's new Pixel LED lighting technology, a grille that blends into the body colour, and a sloping rear window is emphasized by sophisticated side design elements. Peugeot created a sustainable design approach by reducing the number of decorative inserts and the chrome parts have been replaced with body coloured elements.[14]

The 5008 interior is similar to the 3008. The dashboard has Peugeot's third generation i-Cockpit design with a 21-inch floating screen mounted on top section, the iToggles ten customisable touchscreen buttons in the centre, and a compact steering wheel with buttons that are only activated when the driver presses them.[14]

It will be offered as a mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery electric vehicle.[14]
