The Peugeot 5008 has long been one of the best-looking seven-seat SUVs on the road, and in 2023 form it remains a masterclass in how to blend practicality with genuine style. Where many seven-seaters look boxy or utilitarian, the 5008 wears its extra length with real flair. The sharp nose, signature LED lighting and those crisp character lines give it a confident, almost premium presence, a family car that makes you glance back at it in the driveway. This 1.5 BlueHDi paired with the EAT8 automatic gearbox is an ideal match for the 5008?s character. The diesel engine delivers strong mid-range torque for effortless cruising, while the eight-speed auto shifts with an unobtrusive smoothness that suits both motorway runs and town driving. It?s refined, composed and far more rewarding to drive than you might expect from a seven-seat SUV. Inside, Peugeot?s acclaimed i-Cockpit design lifts the cabin well above the ordinary. The digital display, compact steering wheel and smart use of materials make it feel modern and a touch futuristic, while the Allure specification ensures you?re not short of equipment. And of course, the real party trick is the space: a full seven seats, with the versatility to flip, fold and adapt to whatever life throws at you. In short, the 5008 proves that style and practicality don?t have to be at odds. This is a car that can handle the school run, the family holiday and the long commute, all while looking every bit as sharp as a fashion-conscious SUV should.
