The new Peugeot 3008 has been unveiled. This long-awaited vehicle aims to take the C-SUV segment by storm, in a class of vehicles in full expansion across all regions of the globe. It takes on demanding customers looking for new and different experiences with a very strong hand. Whether by its spectacular latest-generation Peugeot i-Cockpit, by its exceptionally inspired design, by its optimised architectural efficiency or by its high-tech equipment, the new Peugeot 3008 SUV aims to assert itself from the off as a major player. It inaugurates for Peugeot a new SUV range for which it will be the worldwide emblem. The new Peugeot 3008 SUV will be the star of the Peugeot stand at the 2016 Paris Motor Show where it will at last be presented to the public ahead of its worldwide launch.

For several years, across all segments, the SUV market is booming. In the European C-segment, still the biggest and most diverse, SUV sales have increased two and a half-fold since 2009 - the launch-date of the first generation of Peugeot 3008. Now, in Europe, all segments considered, one car in ten belongs to the SUV family.

A true incarnation of the modern automobile, stately, technological, creator of emotions and personal pleasure, the SUV enhances the standing of its driver and embodies values in keeping with its time. It is not only the realisation of a desire for personal expression but also a desire to demonstrate success, the looks from others reflecting ones own values. Lastly, it shows a desire for escapism and new experiences, even if the imagined excursion into the wilderness with this vehicles remains strictly fantasy!

Made in France

The new Peugeot 3008 is produced in the Sochaux plant, and the French Trémery and Douvrin factories supply all the power-plants. It will therefore carry from the outset the "Origine France Garantie" label.

The new Peugeot 3008 will be presented to the public for the first time at the 2016 Paris Motorshow and will go on sale worldwide from October 2016.


Optimised architecture

The new Peugeot 3008 SUV is not only attractive to look at, it is also well thought-out, enjoying performance and features are in line with the best in the segment and up to the reputation of the brand.

At 4.45m in length it is positioned at the heart of the segment. And although it is 8cm longer than the previous generation, this extra length can be found in the wheelbase - and thus in the passenger space - which at 2 675 mm, increases by 62mm over the old 3008. This wheelbase is one of the longest on the market. With a width of 1.84m (the same as the previous generation but with enhanced interior space) the height of the new Peugeot 3008 has been kept to 1.62 m (including roof bars), a key factor in a remarkable aerodynamic performance whilst affording its occupants excellent head-room.

It is imposing, with its large wheels and 22cm ground clearance.
