The Peugeot 5008 blends Peugeot's sharp design with the space and versatility families actually need, wrapping clever packaging and a premium-feeling cabin in a crisp, SUV-like silhouette. It drives with more poise than you'd expect from a people carrier, serves up practical touches and flexible seating for everyday chaos, and still looks good when parked outside the school gates.
