Enhanced appearance and equipment continue the appeal of the Peugeot 3008

The Peugeot 3008 Crossover combines the space of an MPV, the practicality and high seating position of an SUV and the convenience and driving dynamics of a hatchback. Since its launch in 2009, the 3008 Crossover has attracted more than 500,000 sales worldwide - exceeding original projections by 50 percent. It also won the What Car? 'Car of the Year' title in 2010, along with many other accolades since.

With the new 3008, Peugeot has given the versatile Crossover an aesthetic upgrade that brings it in line with the other French lions. The nose of the 3008 has been redesigned with a bold new grille and fog light surrounds, both edged in chrome.

The headlights feature a new LED signature and chromed projector components. On higher trim level models, the 3008 is specified with Xenon headlights with automatic height and directional adjustment.

The 3008 range is offered in a choice of nine colours including, Ruby Red, a new shade. On the 3008 HYbrid4, six colours are available including Shark Grey. In the cabin, the fighter jet inspired 'Heads-Up' display features full colour imagery, with separate shades for different information from travelling speed to distance alert.

Specifications on the 3008 Crossover have been boosted by features which are now standard on three trim levels - Access, Active and Allure. Bluetooth connectivity for smartphone and music players is now included on every 3008, while electric folding door mirrors have been added to Active models. Peugeot Connect Navigation and the new reversing camera are standard on Allure.

A wide range of petrol and diesel models are available, including those with Grip Control for enhanced traction. For the HYbrid4 - Peugeot has combined a 2.0-litre, 163bhp rated, HDi FAP diesel engine with a 37bhp rated electric motor. Four drive modes - Auto, ZEV (Zero Emissions Mode), 4WD and Sport - allows the user to prioritise different styles of driving as the terrain and conditions allow.

The multifunctional vehicle impresses further with efficiency figures of 29.3km/L and 88g/km of CO₂ respectively on the Combined Drive Cycle.
