Peugeot 5008

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.

Great cars: comfortable, elegant — it has style and reasonable engine power.
A price that makes the competition pale. With a long-range battery, it lets you cover long distances.
And on top of that, made in France.

The family car par excellence: a big boot, three equal and adjustable seats in the second row, two extra easily accessible seats, an engine that’s more than adequate... everything is excellent except for the slightly high price.

I spent a weekend with the Brabus #5 and I’m thrilled! Extremely quiet, even at just under 220 km/h. Very good ride comfort, especially if, like me, you prefer a softer setup for better suspension comfort!
Brutal acceleration that only really hits from about 50 km/h and culminates in a 0–200 km/h sprint in 10.2 seconds… There are almost no cars up to roughly 1,000 hp that are faster!
The actual charging performance is, I believe, the best of any passenger car available in the EU (only Zeekr shows a little more on paper, but probably not in real life) — it charges at peaks up to 425 kW! 10–80% in 13 minutes and 5–100% in 28 minutes.
The fit and finish are in places better than the Mercedes E‑Class...

Apart from the hopefully soon improved/reduced chimes and the horrendously hard-to-reach mute for the speed warning, the car is really a knockout!
Very, very quiet, comfortable, extremely fast (Brabus version), great build quality, great equipment!
