Peugeot 5008

This "New Variant" Is almost a complete car. Drives well and is comfortable. I didn't get it because the option for passenger electric seat was omitted out from our local variant of 3008 and 5008. Same car across the causeway into our neighbouring Malaysia has got passenger electric seat as standard. The price of this car here is not cheap either. A simple bread and butter car like the forester has got proper electric seats for both driver and passenger, quite strange its omitted for a conti. I hope that AutoFrance will bring in a proper full-spec variant for our market and not try to sell us expensive half baked cakes. Overall, buy this ride if you don't mind the monotonous interior colour, no electric seat for passenger and a steep price.... Read More

Really impressive based on my own paper study as well as test drive experience (against similar mid-range Jap/Korean SUVs). It is clear winner in its class in most areas (exterior, interior, seats & performance). Exterior - Look polished and elegant. Interior - Posh finishing and futuristic feel with its "ICockPit". Loaded with intuitive features e.G. Lane marking warning, adaptive cruising, blind spot warning, etc. Sporty steering wheel and gear handle. Seats - Comfortable 1st row (like other competitors). Spacious 3 x individual seats for 2nd row (unlike may others where middle seat is compromised). 3rd row is the game changer - acceptable leg room and width for anyone below 1.7m. Performance - Despite the engine is only 1.6L, it is very efficient and powerful. It accelerates from 0-100km/h is less than 10s with 163bhp! It is more than enough to carry 7 x people. Very easy to handle with its electric and sporty steering wheel.... Read More
