With its rugged looks, low running costs and good practicality, Peugeot?s baby SUV is very much worth considering by anyone in the market for a Mokka or Juke. It?s no surprise, given the huge popularity of rough-and-tumble high-rise hatchbacks at the moment, that this latest 2008 adopts a rugged look. That means a vertical grille and (from Allure trim upwards) wheel arch extensions and scuff plates, along with ?3D-effect' lights at the rear. In other words, Peugeot has turned a car that began life as a crossover into an SUV, and, in doing so, they?ve given the car a welcome does of extra character. This latest version of the 2008 hasn?t been tested by Euro NCAP, but the previous-generation car scored a maximum five stars when it was tested back in 2013. The standard safety kit is the same across the range, with every model coming with six airbags to protect you in a crash, and electronic stability control to help you avoid having one in the first place. Higher-spec cars from Allure trim upwards (unless they?re specified with the 1.2 PureTech 82 engine) also come with Grip Control, which maximises traction on various types of slippery surface.
