just chose Ateca for my family (2+1), with 2.0 petrol, 4x4, 190 KM, its damn fast being only 1,5 ton. For example Lexus NX has like 230 KM, but weights close to 2 tons, so its actually slower. And Ateca..yeah, it drives just really well, you dont feel like in heavy SUV. Other things - we just liked how it looks, and with all premium features - its just a really nice ride

Agree with you, 3008 is the best of these 3 and for me, the best in it's class. Peugeot hit a home run with this one, that's why it's selling by the thousands despite being the most expensive. It's gorgeous inside and outside (previous 3008 was horrid...), quality is very high, very comfortable, good to drive, engines are good also, spacious for the whole family, lots of high tech gadgets like the digital cockpit, good equipment etc what more could you ask? Congratulations Peugeot.

Just looking at the first shot on the video, most people would buy the 3008 based on that. Look at it. The Ateca looks dull, looks like a box with headlamps. The Toyota looks nice but it's clearly smaller (meaning inferior vehicle to people) than the other 2. The 3008 looks like a modern, trendy, big and beautiful car. The one that gives that premium look with crome all around, status that people are after and aspire.

We went for the Ateca FR Sport which includes things like digital cockpit, leather seats. It drives like a car (a good thing) and has excellent sporty styling. Whilst the Peugeot is nice, we didn't like some of the design elements (rear lights), the badge isn't quite as good as a VAG car, and unlike Matt, we felt the Ateca was more substantial. In fact, we preferred the Ateca over the Tiguan which was too masculine looking and the middle seat in the rear was less usable than the Ateca for some odd reason.

The Dons yea I notice many blatant biases in many UK reviews. Some (not all) UK reviews tend to have strange favoritism for German cars and hatred toward French cars. But Mat has tried his best to be objective enough. He does say he genuinely loves 3008 and that Tiguan's style is boring inside and out. Which is inevitable to refute, because the French style oozes beauty while the German (Tiguan & Ateca) styling has the visual excitement of a dying snail.

Good video, Mat. I checked out the C-HR when I accompanied a friend who was buying a RAV4. I came away knowing it was not the car for me. Too small all round. I had virtually decided on buying a Seat Ateca 1.4 but then saw your initial video review of the 3008. I was so impressed by the interior/cockpit I popped into the Peugeot dealership on the way to the Seat dealership. After a 20 minute test drive in an Allure 1.2 automatic I bought one. Had it two weeks and I just love it. Surprisingly. it goes along a local country lane at 60 mph as readily as my BMW 520d did. The 3008 is not quite as comfortable over bumpy surfaces/potholes as my BMW was, but it is pretty close. I have completed 750 miles on urban, country, main roads and motorways and averaging 44 mpg. The 1.2L, 3 cylinder engine is amazing. I was trained and paid to drive at high speed on all types of roads, but now prefer comfort to racing about: so the 3008 is perfect for me - my wife likes it too.

I tried both and went for the Nissan based on the division between the front seats.If someone parks close to the driver door,you cannot just get in the passenger side and climb over unless you are a younger person.I have the N-Connecta 1.6 diesel and it is a nice all round car.Auto 7 speed transmission and average 49 mpg mixed driving in eco mode.Higher speeds than 70 mph will use a lot more fuel so its best kept at under 70 mph.Bad point is the collision avoidance which often brakes the car when approaching a car parked at the roadside.Satnav is very inaccurate and may send you 50 miles off route if going Exmouth to London. For a young tecky driver,the 3008 would suit better. Overall,the Nissan is just a nice comfortable long distance car with good economy.The 130 bhp is quite brisk in auto form and will wheelspin if pulling away fast.Radio is average quality,controls are great,steering is excellent.

I have the Toyota CHR 1.2 turbo charged one. I dont like how the handbrakes are automatic and I still haven't figured out what turns them on other than parking. Honestly I'm use to all my previous cars with the manual handbrakes that I pull up and release myself!

On looks alone, the 3008 is absolutely stunning, inside and out. It is a masterclass in automotive design. However, I wanted a smallish SUV that had all the space and airiness but that to all intents and purposes drives like a family hatch. The Ateca fit my needs perfectly, especially with the 1.4 tsi in Xcellence trim. And it was still £7k cheaper than the Peugeot in this review, but with a much better engine.
@tonyb12237 жыл бұрын
You also get nothing on the SEAT compared to the Peugeot, once you add all the extra's that are standard on the 3008 you end up spending more on the Ateca, so unless you compare spec for spec, saying one is cheaper than the other is a mute point.
@jimbrimble31317 жыл бұрын
Well that's not strictly true is it? You don't "get nothing" on the Ateca in Xcellence trim, or no-one would buy it. The standard kit on the 3008 is admittedly good across the range, but for me it was still the engine, and the handling that won the day, moot point or not.
@tonyb12237 жыл бұрын
Jim Brimble ok you get leather as standard, everything else is pretty much an option. Top of the range GT is 33k, spec an xcellence up to the same and its 39k. The Allure has a better list of basic kit and that would undercut the SEAT by quite a margin. For me the 3008 won hands down, it handles very well, the ride is excellent (it absorbs the bumps better than the SEAT), its more comfortable and I can drive up and down the country and still feel fresh at the end of the journey, and those points (as well as the standard equipment my GT Line came with), were the winner for me.

Loved the interior of the 3008, did a long test drive really wanting this to be the car to have. However the tiny steering wheel is a BIG negative and the ride quality was quite bad as well. Lovely to look at and to sit in, not so great at all to drive sadly. Peugeot should wake up and get rid of the tiny wheel, if it was such a great idea others would have done it too. Guess what, no one did.

Corey Green you may as well buy the 3008 GT, cheaper and better equipped if you spec the ateca anywhere near it (you are pushing towards 40k on the SEAT to the equivelant specification 3008 @ 34k, think your math is a little out if you think the Ateca is better ;)

Most of that comes down to a difference in the trim levels, really. Go for the 3008 in, say, Allure trim and the Ateca in SE Tech trim, the Peugeot is only slightly more expensive - but then it feels it, too. Don't worry; we weren't just bowled over by some nice leather seats and a big sunroof!

The logic is simple: it's a buyers market. We had such a bad experience with the Citroen, both in terms of the car's performance (always in the garage), coupled atrocious customer service that I simply would never buy one of them again. We have a Seat now and it's a great drive (even reviewed by Matt as being so), way more powerful and responsive and, to date, has never given any trouble. Even my wife, who knows nothing about cars and isn't particlarly interested in cars so long as they get her safely from A to B says she wouldn't drive another Citroen. I really like your analogy between the burger and the steak. I should point out that there is an HUGE difference between a burger and a steak. In this case, the Cirtroen is the burger!! Following on with your analogy, I would also say "once bitten, twice shy."
