PEUGEOT 3008 VS 5008 COMPARISON REVIEW WITH NEW STRONGEST E-AWD VERSIONS

EV Channels Review

The Peugeot 3008 and 5008, particularly in their new, most powerful e-AWD electric versions, offer a compelling package with distinct strengths. The 3008 GT impresses with its compact size housing a large 97 kWh battery option, delivering strong acceleration (0-100 km/h in 6.0 seconds for AWD with the smaller 73 kWh battery) and a sporty, engaging driving experience thanks to its stiffer suspension and responsive steering. The interior, especially in GT trim with the comfort pack, features premium materials and a striking 'flying screen' dashboard, though the infotainment system's user interface can be complex and slow. The 5008, with its longer wheelbase, offers the advantage of up to seven seats and a larger trunk, though its driving dynamics are slightly less agile than the 3008. Real-world range is estimated at 400 km for the smaller battery and 540 km for the larger 97 kWh battery. Key drawbacks include the potentially rough ride on uneven surfaces due to the 20-inch wheels and firm suspension, and some ergonomic frustrations with the infotainment system. Overall, the 3008 is highlighted for its unique combination of size, battery capacity, and sporty driving, while the 5008 caters to families needing more space and flexibility.
