What's the difference between the Peugeot 2008 and 208?

Originally, the two vehicles were very similar. The 208 was released first as a hatchback. In 2013, Peugeot unveiled the 2008, a crossover version of the 208. While the platform and many of the mechanical components were the same, the 2008 had more ground clearance and a higher stance. As the years went on, Peugeot started to model the 2008 differently, giving it a unique appearance.

Which is bigger, the Peugeot 2008 or 3008?

The Peugeot 2008 is the smallest of the two, and it has a lower starting price. These two models have similar designs and interior features, but the 3008 offers more cabin space for added comfort.

Which is the most efficient engine in the Peugeot 2008?

Peugeot recently released an all-electric 2008, which provides zero tailpipe emissions. With a full charge, the electric powertrain provides a maximum of 250 miles of driving. It only takes 30 minutes to charge from 0 to 80%.

Is the Peugeot 2008 a good family car?

Yes, there's plenty of space in the Peugeot 2008 to make it suitable for a family. The seats are supportive, and you can fit two adults in the back row. There are also ISOFIX points for hooking up car seats.

Is there a hybrid version of the Peugeot 2008?

The newest 2008 lineup doesn't include a hybrid option. The company supplies either a petrol-based powertrain rated at 99bhp or an electric-only powertrain with a driving range reaching up to 250 miles per charge.

Is the Peugeot 2008 available as an automatic?

The petrol 2008 comes with the option of a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic transmission. As with most electric powertrains, the EV has a single-speed transmission for instant torque.

Is there a four-wheel drive version available?

No, Peugeot only made the 2008 with front-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive can reduce fuel economy, so the 2008 remains more efficient than some competitors.

Different generations of used Peugeot 2008

Production of the Peugeot 2008 started in 2013, with the SUV adding a raised seating position and distinctive styling onto the 208 supermini platform. Both models shared many of the same mechanical components, but the 2008 had more space. Across two generations, Peugeot has worked hard to ensure that this model competes against its rivals, such as the Renault Captur and Nissan Juke. There's even a GT-line trim that adds a sporty nature to the lineup.

Second Generation (2019 to Present)

With the arrival of the second generation, the 2008 stopped resembling the 208 hatchback so much. It featured a new fascia that showcased a broad grille design. LED headlights became available, and the overall stance became more recognisable.

A 2023 refresh offered a bolder design with a unique claw-like appearance for the bumper. The grille highlighted a new badge, and there were three LED strips in the headlights. Inside, the touchscreen display grew larger, and the new badge also appeared on the steering wheel.

First Generation (2013 to 2019)

To keep up with the demand for crossovers, Peugeot released the 2008 in 2013. Originally, it was based on the same platform as the 208, with most of the mechanical aspects showing up in both designs. It was essentially the same car underneath but with more ground clearance and different looks.

In 2016, the first design refresh occurred, which brought an updated front fascia and a grille that highlighted a 3D pattern. The lower bumper resembled a skid plate, providing some protection from debris. Inside the cabin, Peugeot added the i-Cockpit driver information centre and a 7-inch infotainment display, which gave the model more technology than some rivals.
