NEW Peugeot e-5008 review - electric SUV with SEVEN seats driven! | What Car?

[@iCozzh]

Really annoys me how no car reviewer can tell me what batteries are in evs. Yes you tell me the capacity but is it lithium iron phosphate or is it lithium ion? If so is it 4680s, 2170s or 18650s? Sort it out as these things matter. Youre quite capable of describing combustion engines cylinders, arrangement, displacement with horsepower and torque so do the same for evs.

[@BlackHawkTejas]

Exactly! And one more thing; Is it 400V, 600V or 800V etc.... These are all important information, just like in ICE, like how much power, torque, petrol or diesel, engine capacity, Inline 4 or Flat 4/6 or V6 etc!! We need to know its battery type, composition & Voltage Rating etc....

[@iCozzh]

@@BlackHawkTejas Couldnt agree more.

[@ferrariforever1]

Agree. Unfortunately it does not have LFP battery. I much prefer LFP because you can charge to 100% on a daily base.

[@iCozzh]

@@ferrariforever1 Not having an lfp battery and having such slow pickup is insanely embarrassing for this car😂

[@tesla-spectre]

Well Peugeot did not put it in the info pckage and they all simply say what the producer wrote down. They never ask uestions because they want to be invited to these fancy locations 😂😂😂 You can fairly assume that small batteries under 50-60kWh are usually now LFP since that is cheaper , all above is usually NMC because the LFP needs more space and thus you cannot pack large packs. So yeah, you are totally right. And Stellantis does not run 800V yet, to my knowledge.

[@Anashere_Narrnda]

my next car 🤤 just like the prev gen when it's came out in 2017 the GT model design was a masterpiece inside and out and this new one is no difference an absolutely masterpiece of a design inside and out in my opinion best looking 7 seater in the market

[@timrothwell33]

If you are designing a 7 seater then make the 3 seats in the second row all the same size - like they used to be in Peugeot 5008 MPV

[@fuzzy-daddy83]

and the 2nd gen before this. My wifes dad just got a facelift 2nd gen 5008, 3 seats on the middle row all the same size, all with isofix, why take that option away? I don't get it.

[@etbadaboum]

Peugeot made it so because customers said they didn't need three so they made two more comfortable

[@barscankaya8554]

​@@etbadaboumcustomers can choose 3008 then😊

[@Vilmir]

@@barscankaya8554 customers apparently prefer having more boot than a full 3rd seat. The boot difference was consequent on 2nd gen with the 3008. Almost double for just +20cm of length. In France, the only family I know that owns a 5008 has 2 kids, but travels with tons of luggages. That said, I do not understand why they removed the equaly sized 3rd seat as it was there on previous version.

[@FGGiskard]

@@etbadaboum I mean, maybe, but still it was a USP on the side of the 5008 that is no longer there. Although tbh, I have three young kids / babies and as long as the middle seat is wide enough and the isofix anchor points separated enough, this should be no problem at all.

[@stephen10.]

48 k £ for the peugeot 5008 and 65 k £ for the Kia E9 ! The difference of price is a huge !

[@jamesmccormack3229]

Peugeot are nailing their interiors just now, this is also much better looking than the old 5008, that just looked all out of proportion with itself.

[@FGGiskard]

People are overlooking that seat tilting to access the back. It renders the back seats way more useful as you may not even need to remove the child seats to access the third row

[@x3merx3mer]

Given how Peugeot prices depreciate the fastest + electric car depreciating the most + they went crazy with the prices lately, this is a disaster to buy new, BUT a super cheap absolute gem to buy used in 2-3 years.

3th rear seat isofix ? your stupid idea

[@smaracibre]

I am not a majority it seems, but I would for sure rather have 3 more equal seats with 3 ISO fix positions. The fact it doesn't have it may actually turn me down on buying this car. :(

[@nickrojitas]

100% i had the second generation and with 2 kids it was very confortable to put both kids in the middle and side seat and leave a window seat for an adult

[@smaracibre]

@@nickrojitas exactly. I Don't see a point of having 7 seats but only 2 seats are ISO fix friendly.

[@MyMednas]

@@smaracibre I've got 4 kids and haven't needed ISO fix for years. It's a relatively small window in time that the kids are small.

[@savasorama]

I don’t understand these isofix points. Why would they put 2 out of 6 seats? When you put a child seat on outer seats how am I supposed to get the third row?

[@VolvoMarkku]

Is this new Peugeot 5008 like the old one possible to order with a boot carpet if I don't need the 2 rear seats to anything and I want to use the fantastic large boot to carrying 2 dogs for example?

[@MarcucciLeising]

you’re literally my comfort person i love you kislux !

[@fuzzy-daddy83]

So Peugeot have actively dumped a set of customers, for no reason? well done Peugeot, well done. It was one of the main reasons my father in law chose this car, the 3 full size isofix seats in the middle row. Now they make the car bigger and effectively take a seat away, I don't get it?

[@ivanalmeida84]

So, if you have 2 isofix chairs, and isofix only in the outer middle seats, how do the passengers access the last row without having to take the seats out? The main appeal of the car for an average family (being able to accommodate a couple extra passengers) is gone...

[@jermineprince9188]

I love looking at the reviews of the vehicle offer in the UK, however many people here can't afford them new. It looks nice but we have to wait for a used one. Keep up the good work 💪

[@HaakonErtel]

Problem, used EV cars wont make the same range.

[@thomasgalvin1158]

Massive mistake by peugeot, i personally know 7 owners in our area, and all (including me) bought this because of the three isofix's and separate seats (as well as being relqtiveoy cheap and nicely kitted out), it was the key difference from rivals such as the kodiaq. I went to look at a santa fe today, and said no thankyou because of the middle seat. And now i see peugeot has moved away from this option. So disappointing. was actualky going to text dealer about looking for a new one of these, but its a non runner now.... 😢😢😢

[@kjetilsrlund6593]

I agree. I have ordered an e-Rifter because of that

[@mikadavies660]

This will be an outstanding taxi / family car. With 100,000 mile warranty it is a stunning piece of kit.

[@legioner9]

You won't reach 100,000 miles without problems.

[@Dqtube]

The only problem compared to the EV9 is that the big battery in this car won't be on sale this year and the EV9 is already on the road. So it's a bit odd to compare the price and real-world range of the Kia with the theoretical claims for this Peugeot.

[@ferrariforever1]

The wltp range of both cars should be obtained using the exact same methodology, right? Then it doesn't matter whether a car has been on sale or not.

[@Dqtube]

@@ferrariforever1 No, WLTP test conditions can vary because there is no one central authority responsible for verifying these tests (such as the EPA in the US). Therefore, some car makers are cherry-picking a car configuration for the test that will not be on sale in all markets, or it will be a time-limited offer for only the initial few months of sales. So a majority of potential customers will not be able to buy it. In the case of this car, Peugeot is trying to sell that it will have the same consumption (15-16 kWh/100 km, a figure from independent tests) as their e3008, which is a smaller, lighter and more aerodynamic car.

@@Dqtube well, no. 3008 has wltp of 720km, 5008 with same battery has 660km. In german price list you can find wltp consuption of 17,8-18,7kWh/100km

[@Dqtube]

Well... It's nice that you talk about WLTP, but when I wrote the original post there were already independent tests of the e3008 with a smaller battery and they had 15-16kWh/100km depending on driving style. Even if we wrongly assume that the e3008 version with the larger battery will have similar efficiency to the small one, the car will do about 650km in good weather, not 720km from WLTP. Don't you also see the paradox in your reaction? The larger battery has 98 kWh, but if you try the basic math (660/100)*17.8)=117.48 kWh and (660/100)*18.7=123.42 kWh or vice versa (98/18.7)*100=524km and (98/17.8)*100=550.5km. So what's your point? Even according to their own consumption figures, the car cannot travel 660 km in combined use.

[@ferrariforever1]

​@@Dqtubeyou said in your original post that "it's odd to compare EV9 with the unreleased e-5008". My point is that the wltp test has the same test parameters (acceleration rate, braking rate, top speed) applied to all EVs, so you can compared their wltp values. I am fully aware that the wltp value of a car is often different than the range in reality.

[@krzysztofcwik5347]

Just make it 10 cm longer or front shorter and few cm vider and there we have - true 7 seater - with 3 seperate seats great for family of 5 with ability to put parents in law into the 3rd row:) One thought - MPV always better than suv !!!

[@pinkelephants1421]

Was the range quoted related to the european WLTP or something closer to the USA's more realistic real-world range EPA protocol?

[@ysteinjakobsen42]

Why dont they go full EV with a dedicated platform? That would allow for structural battery pack with lower centre of gravity, frunk etc. Sharing platform with a with fuel car just takes away lots of the potential. Also I would have liked to see V2L and a 220v outlet, snappier software and the like. It feels like Peugeot is taking a step into the future, while still keeping one foot firmly in the past...

[@charruaporelmundo]

How tall are you? in Mts please. Either way, for a family , for kids, not even teens yet, this SUV is really good.

[@ferrariforever1]

For an EV, I mostly care about 2 things besides the range and the charging speed: - One pedal drive or not - LFP battery or not (so that I can charge the car to 100% on a daily base) Too bad that this video didn't cover these two items so I need to look them up myself via other sources.

[@legioner9]

Just do not bother buying an EV, unless you do not drive outside the city.

[@ferrariforever1]

@@legioner9 Depending on the charging infrastructure in your country. In my country it's very good. I have been driving the basic version of the Model 3 highland for a half year. I can squeeze 500km out of its 57 kWh LFP battery. And the Tesla one pedal drive experience has been fantastic.

[@legioner9]

@@ferrariforever1 Well, you must be driving slow (max. 60-65 mph), because you are not getting 500 km range otherwise (if you actually get 500 km. I have a friend with a Model Y and he does not get 500 km, although he drives 60 - 65 for max. range.

[@ferrariforever1]

​@@legioner9 Indeed the speed limit here is 100km/h = 62 mph. And my driving style is very gentle.

well, you have very high recuperation (3 levels) so daily - not aggressive - driving is doable with one pedal. On lvl2 and 3 it will light up braking lights

[@charlesdelusignan7909]

The 3 isofix in the middle row was precisely /why/ i bought the 2 gen 5008. Very few other cars have it, if any. Bit of a dealbreaker for me that they got rid of it. It was basically the selling point of the car.

Add another potential electric seven-seater buyer who is bemused by manufacturers’ abandonment of three equal second-row seats. These cars do have the width for three equal seats and three ISOFIX, as our trusty Grand Scenic demonstrates, and after a decade of owning it, we still haven’t found an alternative that isn’t a minibus, and so we are sticking with it for our own sanity until either we no longer have three children living at home (whom we have to get from place to place with the minimum of fighting over seat space) or it has a serious mechanical failure!

I dont get why car makers have ditched the sliding doors for 7-seaters.. seems much more practical when accessing the third row, and easier when handling child seats. But i guess people are being told nowadays that they need a large unpractical "SUV" rather than a practical mpv... Most SUV's dont even have 4wd or any off road prowess other than slightly higher ride heights. To me these kinds of cars are just unpractical, wasteful and unnecessary... A lower mpv would use less energy since it would have better aerodynamics.

Really a shame that it does not have the one pedal drive.

[@Dqtube]

The WLTP range of this car is nonsense. A car of this shape and weight will be really happy if it consumes 17-18 kWh/100 km in good weather. The much smaller 3008 with a small battery(73kWh) is 15-16 kWh/100km with two people on board.

Now I know it’s confusing but the term SUV is a very loose one. Nowadays it mostly refers to road going cars with elements from off-road cars. There’s also plenty of subsections like the crossover SUV but it’s story for another day.
