This is a bestseller that flooded our French roads and European since 2016: Peugeot 3008 second generation Chosen as the 2017 Car of the Year, it allowed Peugeot to finally continue the success of profitable family crossovers and return to the race after the dark years (2010-2015). Above all, her success was almost overwhelming in the face of French competition : Renault Kadjar was never able to match the performance of its competitor. But with the advent of Arkana, and more recently Austral and Espace, its update would be welcome. This is inevitable because Peugeot will unveil the third 3008 under the name next Tuesday, September 12live from Munich.
Major update
Stronger and sharper, this new version will also have a more chiseled profile than the current one. It will incorporate Peugeot’s latest styling trends, including its logo and its multi-cam headlights. Instrument panel i-Cockpit, already presented, is completely new and much more “techno” than before. Technically, it will be based on the unprecedented platform of the Stellantis group Average STLA. A base that will allow it to inherit a 100% electric version called the e-3008. Peugeot is already talking about a range of up to 700 kilometers. Goal: hit the forehead the new electric Scénic, just discovered, also in Munich. Its older brother Peugeot 5008 will appear in a few months and will arrive in dealerships in 2024.
Price reduction for the 3008/5008 duo
But until then the current 3008/5008 duo is not dead, and we must keep making it alive! 3008 sales fell in the first half of the year (-13%), but at the same time, 5008 sales increased by 24%! Ahead of scheduled end-of-life and facing the Australian threat, Peugeot is now revising its prices downwards.. Change point for Active Pack processing (3008 and 5008) but €550 discount (€100 more for 5008) on the Allure Pack that is, the starting price (excluding discounts) is 37,620 euros. The same story with the “sporty chic” finish. GT, listed at €40,020, €200 less. Cheers to the boost for those still tempted by this model at the end of their career but still on par.
