New Peugeot 5008 7-seater unveiled
The new Peugeot 5008 7-seater was unveiled at the SA Motoring Festival this weekend, and we made sure we were there to see it!
If you’re looking for a large SUV to accommodate your growing family and needs, you might want to wait for Peugeot’s new 5008 SUV which will be available locally towards the end of the year.
The 5008 is the third SUV to be unveiled by the PEUGEOT brand within in two-year period. It’s a modern 7-seater offering new onboard experiences and smart features, from its compact steering wheel, an 8-inch captivative touchscreen, as well as a 12,3-inch high-resolution digital head-up instrument panel.
The all-new PEUGEOT 5008 SUV includes the latest version of the PEUGEOT i-Cockpit®, Efficient Modular Platform 2 (EMP2), and a plethora of high-tech features that enhance comfort and safety. Behind the elegant, dynamic design lies a superbly practical vehicle. With seven seats, the all-new PEUGEOT 5008 is the first SUV to offer modularity on par with that of the best people-carriers.
With i-Cockpit® Amplify, be prepared for a richer driving experience that stimulates four senses at once:
– sight, by adjusting screen colour and compartment lighting intensity
– hearing, via musical ambience settings
– touch, a multitude of tactile textures and streamlined user interfaces like the i-Cockpit direct access panel
– smell, with a fragrance diffuser.
In terms of size and space, the 5008 is specified with a wheelbase that is 16.5 cm longer than the new 3008, and 11 cm wider than the original 5008, while second row passengers have 60mm more knee room.
We’re super excited to experience driving the new 5008 when it comes available, but for now, keep checking womenonwheels.co.za for further info.
