The Peugeot 3008 is Peugeot’s sharp-looking family crossover. It’s just as popular with buyers as its more MPV-styled predecessor, and that makes it a familiar sight on the used market too, where its handsome styling, wide range of engines, and practical cabin all make it a car that’s easy to recommend.
Looks, equipment, and the option of petrol, diesel, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid engines are the 3008’s strongest suits, and while not everyone will get on with the unusual interior layout, most will appreciate the 3008’s quality feel and fine driving manners. It’s a strong all-rounder and well worth a look if you’re already considering cars like the Nissan Qashqai, Toyota RAV4, or Ford Kuga.
We’re looking at the second generation Peugeot 3008 here, launched in 2016 to replace the original car that had debuted in 2008. Peugeot has since launched another generation in 2024, but the outgoing car is a familiar sight on the roads and on dealer forecourts, having picked up and run with the popularity of its predecessor.
It’s a better car, too. Despite going from a more MPV-like body style to an SUV-like one, the 3008 is still a practical car, comfortably seating adults in the front and rear seats (and therefore being more than large enough for kids), and packing a large boot too - albeit one that shrinks slightly in the plug-in models, thanks to the extra batteries.
There’s a surprisingly wide range of plug-ins in fact, with three different power outputs (the top one being genuinely quick, and getting all-wheel drive), while a regular hybrid, a petrol, and a diesel are all offered too. By the standards of the class the 3008’s not especially heavy, which means all engines offer good performance and economy, and the 3008 is reasonably agile and rides well too - though it’s not class-leading in either area.
The interior has a high-quality feel and looks great, but it may be the thing that puts some buyers off the 3008, thanks to Peugeot’s use of high-set dials and a small, low-set steering wheel. If you find it offputting enough, that might be the cue to look at some of the 3008’s rivals: the Citroen C5 Aircross, DS 7, and Vauxhall Grandland are all similar under the skin but have more conventional cabins, while others in this class include the Honda HR-V, Toyota RAV4, Nissan Qashqai, and Ford Kuga.
There’s little hardship in sticking to the less powerful engines and lower trim levels in the 3008, thanks to a good level of equipment and both the basic petrol and diesel engines offering a good mix of economy and performance - the car’s relatively light weight definitely helps it here. Plug-in hybrid models made the most sense for new, company buyers, thanks to the tax incentives on plug-ins, but may still be worth it as a private used buy too, if you have somewhere to plug in to benefit from the 40-or-so miles of EV range.
The 3008’s engine lineup might be a little complicated but trim levels are simpler. Equipment levels are generous across the board but do change slightly depending on the engine you choose - the plug-in hybrid versions get a little more kit in some trims than the petrol and diesel versions. You’ll also only find some engines on higher trims to begin with.

Only a handful of 3008s were sold for more than £40,000 brand new, and these range-topping plug-in models won’t be quite as cheap to run as some other 3008s thanks to an annual tax bill of £590 in years two to six of registration. All other versions are thankfully more affordable - you’ll pay £190 per year in VED for petrol and diesel models and £10 less each year for the hybrids and plug-ins.
The 3008 range starts at insurance group 22 for all petrol and diesel versions, regardless of trim level. That jumps up to groups 29-30 for the 180PS plug-in, and group 30 for the 225PS car. Topping the list is the 300PS plug-in, which sits in group 38. That’s a fair bit more than a Mazda CX-5, which tops out in group 27, but the top Peugeots do offer stronger performance.
