A £50k, 325-mile EV? 2024 Peugeot e-3008 review

Here's the new Peugeot 3008, reviewed on UK roads in electric 'e-3008' spec. This is a £50,000 car (£45k for a lower trim) that takes on the Tesla Model Y and VW ID.4. Join me for an in-depth look at the interior, boot, back seats and driving efficiency as I try to work out if it's a viable successor to one of my favourite left-field SUVs.

Your sense of humour is the reason I come back here, followed by my love of cars

[@roscopeco2000]

50k for a Peugeot!! I'd want a 50% share holding for that

[@toyotaprius79]

**cough cough** _Stellantis_ **cough** _French govt/unions iirc_ **cough**

[@Adam-oj9zj]

Literally my first thought when I saw the title of the video!

[@brianiswrong]

£50'000 and a heat pump is an extra £700 Seems a bit cheeky for an already expensive pug.

[@chasf3433]

Should be a great value buy after depreciating £20k after one year

[@-Dragonfyr-]

Have one ordered, the 1.2 Petrol Hybrid. 11 weeks ish to delivery. Can't wait! It will be my first car too! Great video, nice to see the right hand version as it's not anywhere else and I have yet to actually sit in it. Thanks :)

[@thehitman906]

what date did you order?

[@-Dragonfyr-]

@@thehitman906 3rd of May

[@davidbovine]

Wow. That’s some spend on a first car. Whatever happened to people spaffing less than £1k on something 10 years old with 100k miles on the clock?!

[@-Dragonfyr-]

@@davidbovine I wouldn't know anything regarding the speeds of delivery pal. Just excited it's on it's way :)

[@Supraboyes]

@@-Dragonfyr- plenty of money in the bank then

[@davidbovine]

If you need a family SUV in EV flavour, get a Scenic E-Tech. Much better value, longer range, better spec and a hell of a lot lighter.

[@Tom-je8cr]

Le 3008 a une meilleur autonomie, il aura une version de 680km

[@paulwardzynski3265]

I like the design architecture so Vive La France! Massage seats shouldn't be allowed in the driver's seat because the last time I had a massage I fell asleep.

[@bw1376]

Great review Tim! They'd have to put the 9X8 into production before I'd think of spending £50k on a Peugeot though.

[@AppleUK2000]

OMG! A stunning, alluring car, truly next level Bravo Peugeot! 🦁

[@Travel_Day_Dreams]

Suspect there will be the usual 25% discount off list when the dealers start to get themselves organised, see the current pricing for E2008 & E308 as examples. Why Stellantis can't put a realistic list price from the start is baffling, particularly when their current approach means the car will be subject to luxury uplift for VED. They appear to be inviting the chinese brands to come and eat their lunch, SAIC, BYD & Ora must be delighted that the EU manufacturers are so inept.

[@spsmith45]

Fun video. Thanks. Regarding price… it’s competitive against a Model Y LR, though a bit smaller and a less good load carrier. My Model Y is also firm riding. Leasing prices will be key, I imagine.

[@DontPanicDear]

Nice to see some sunshine ☀️ I’ve been liking the look of Peugeot of late, bu for me, this one is a mixed bag of nopes 🧐 Les Rosbif en sueur 💦

[@thesecretone7102]

Heat pump an extra 750£ when standard on id4 and renault scenic

[@PsychedMedia]

Isn't £50k similar to a Model Y? And this is much nicer looking than the Model Y

[@neilbenton1152]

Could of swore he said 50k for a Peugeot 😂

[@Oklm23]

I tried the version with 19" wheels and thought the ride was much more compliant, but regardless of wheel size I still think it's smoother than my current Model Y, which is my biggest complaint about that car. The GT version with 19" wheels and AWD is what I'm awaiting for.

[@toyotaprius79]

I look at the 4008 and I ask myself, why is the Citroën CX5 not a full electric ëCX5?

[@finchyfun1]

We can get the GT on mobility for just £499 advanced payment. It was £2499 We are having problems getting a test drive.

[@fungus70]

Kinda expensive ain't ?

[@lesvassallo5760]

50k for a Peugeot e-3008 electric or not The sensation pack should be standard. A year down the line where will the residuals be

[@albertlira7443]

Vous êtes assez en sueur. The French love to be funky but I will say it works very well. Man that's a high price point though

[@dannywilkinson1168]

I have a 2021 3008 hybrid4 , 300bhp 0-60 in 5 seconds , red nappa leather . The focal sound system as standard , fast car , looks well but as a phev the range is sh1te . Also £49700 as new (salary sacrifice car though) due to change next year and going for a full EV , but not another pug , not at that price . Plenty more out there for 50 bags

[@timrothwell33]

We are going to Gridserve Braintree to test drive a Renault Scenic e-Tech at the weekend. On paper, and in the reviews I have watched, it looks like that BEV is a better option than the e-3008

[@thesecretone7102]

Drove scenic last weekend fabulous car miles better and more kit in it.better miledge and heat pump as standard. Not extra 750 on peugeout

[@paul._david]

Ridiculous price. Very over styled.

[@judahdaneshtaol]

The legroom in the back looks cramped- especialy if it is the new electric platform.

[@mikadavies660]

The price new is a bit harsh.... bear in mind the £35,000 petrol model will be dreadful at 1.2Ltr and by 50,000 miles it will be shot. However, get this EV at 1 or 2yrs old and it will be very much affordable with many trouble free years left in it.

[@bernarddsilva6322]

My approach too.

[@DrMoorehen]

Maybe....but folks will start to be wary of this approach....as when the batteries die out....they will take 1000's to replace ....so cheaper to scrap this junk

[@mikadavies660]

@DrMoorehen Interesting thought and 100% relevant 5 years ago when batteries were 50,000 to 150,000 miles.... However, take a moment to update yourself and you will see that batteries are 500,000 miles and the 2025 packs are 1 million miles. Add in the simple fact that they WERE £thousands and have dropped 50% in 2023 and again 50% in 2024. Tesla battery pack in now $3,600...!!

[@RoscoeColtrane]

Hoh Hoh! Zee styling is most excellent, except the wheels. They are as exciting as I imagine @jamesmaygin 's sock drawer. Perhaps they need more cheese.

[@colingoode3702]

Nice car shame about the price. I would consider at 2 years old & less than half the price when new.

[@oliverstemp9132]

It’s nice, but I’d rather have a Tiguan or a Renault Rafale, that’s a coupe SUV that’s still really spacious.

[@V_Dubya]

Yeah, it’s a pass for me. It’s not Bon . Nice vid though dude

[@trophyian]

It pronounced "Veloooor" !

[@ymirfritz9989]

the chinese are going to mop the floor with peugeot with their low priced high range EVs in a few years... 50k is insane.

[@steveberry1366]

I put short odds on this being one of the worst depreciating cars over the next 12-24 months

[@chasf3433]

Those pointless huge and no doubt very heavy 20" wheels aren't going to do much for ride quality

[@robc5955]

elle est pas si terrible

[@BikeOnRoadLondon]

£50k Peugeot. 😂

[@johnhaynes9910]

Dear Tim, love your enthusiasim but frankly the price of ALL EVs is ridiculous and the technology is not really for 'prime time', Buying an older ICE or 'self charging hybrid' makes most sense for a market where something like over 80% of us buy second hand and not new. This means that most of us will be looking at +3 year old that have just come out of lease with company/fleet users and rich people so consider reviewing cars like that. Keep the nonsense coming :) Oh, "Le Tim est stinky" - yeah I failed French too.

[@MyRealName]

What a turd.. The car, not the reviewer. The reviewer is cool.

[@DrMoorehen]

I have a 3008 diesel, manual GT, 2022....i wouldnt swop it for this electric rubbish any day of the week...the rear window view is bad enough, without this slopey roof.....and it would a accommodate our dog without bashing its head every time in the boot...NO NO NO😮

[@dandylion1987]

bargain! :/

[@wl660]

Interested in your reviews - not interested in EV’s.

[@roafelix8198]

Stop mocking french language 😑

[@timrodierides]

Fine. I’ll go on strike though
