Over the years the Peugeot 5008 has morphed from a seven-seater MPV into a seven-seater SUV, but it manages to combine the best bits from both - the seven-seat layout is pretty usable, even if it’s not quite as vast as a proper MPV, but you get the chunky, raised styling of an SUV, which works quite nicely with the French brand’s current design language.
The second-generation 5008 went on sale in 2017 and is still available today. Peugeot has made a few changes during that time but the fundamentals have remained the same, and below we’ve broken down some of the engines and trim levels you can expect to find when shopping for a used example.
It’s not easy creating a seven-seater car that doesn’t look either boxy or dumpy, but we reckon Peugeot has managed it with the 5008, so if you’re looking for a seven-seater with a dash of style, it could be the car for you. Based on the smaller 3008, it’s a little longer and manages to squeeze a pair of seats into the third row, and they’re just about big enough for adults at a push - though really they’re meant for children, who’ll no doubt be a lot happier back there.
The first couple of rows are definitely suitable for adults, and if you simply wish to use the 5008 as a five-seater, then there’s a generous 702 litres of space behind the second row. The best seats in the house are still those right at the front however, as they’re the ones who get the best view out, but also the best view of the 5008’s funky, well-built and well-trimmed dashboard. The unusual small wheel and high-set Peugeot dials aren’t as much of an issue here as in Peugeot’s regular cars either, as the wheel is less likely to block the instrument cluster.
The 5008 drives well, with a lineup of petrol and diesel engines, and a petrol hybrid that should cover most bases. None are lightning quick (and a few feel a little slow), but fuel economy is a strong point of the range, and refinement is good too. The suspension is set up on the side of comfort, but the 5008 remains composed in the corners, and that small steering wheel even feels a little sporty.
This is a busy class so there are plenty of alternatives to the 5008 that might tempt you away. The Nissan X-Trail is the seven-seat version of the strong-selling Qashqai and remains a great all-rounder, while the Skoda Kodiaq, Hyundai Santa Fe, and Honda CR-V are popular too. You might also want to look at seven-seaters from more prestigious brands, such as the Land Rover Discovery Sport and Mercedes-Benz GLB - though the 5008 is more affordable than both of these.
Allure is the trim line to go for in the 5008 range. While Active is by no means poorly equipped, the Allure’s extra features, especially front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera, plus extra safety features including a blind spot monitor, mean it should be a bit easier to live with, and help justify the small increase in price.
If fuel economy is your goal then the 1.5 BlueHDi 130 engine would be our pick (it’s not as efficient on paper as the older 1.6 BlueHDi, but that’s because the older engine was measured with a different official fuel economy test procedure), but the Puretech 130 and later Hybrid 136 petrol models do a good job in the 5008 too, and are better suited to those who do fewer miles each year.

The bulk of the 5008 range gets a flat rate of VED of £190 per year, though hybrid models are £10 cheaper. Keep an eye out for versions that cost more than £40,000 brand new though, which means some of the GT models (particularly if the original owner ticked a few option boxes), as these are liable for a surcharge - meaning if the car is two to six years old, you may end up paying £600 a year in tax.
Depending on specification the Peugeot 5008 can be found in anywhere from insurance group 11, to group 29. Early 1.2-litre 130PS Puretech variants, specifically with the automatic gearbox, are at the cheapest end of the scale, while the most powerful 180PS petrol and diesels in GT Premium trim are right at the top. These groups are fairly typical for the class - a Nissan Qashqai sits in groups 11-26.
