Peugeot 2008 – The brand’s new compact SUV
The Peugeot 2008 entered the ring in 2013 and customers particularly appreciated its dynamic performance. The new version hits our shores in September 2016!
The Access, Active and Allure levels are complemented by the new superior ‘GT Line’. This desirable trim level is already a very popular choice on key Peugeot models (208, 308 and 508), which adds a sporty and chic theme with a red/black colour theme.
The Peugeot 2008 offers appealing and unique sensations of control. They are addictive. The i-Cockpit® is unique to Peugeot and embodies the driving characteristics of the Peugeot 2008, being: intuitive, agile, flexible and safer to drive.
The Grip Control, an adapted traction system, gives the 2008 its versatility on all types of terrain. It is combined with Mud & Snow (all-Season) certified winter tyres.
While the driver activates and configures the cruise control and speed limiter with their left hand, still holding the steering wheel, they can also make a call on their mobile phone with their right hand from the 7’’ touch screen via the Mirror Screen feature. This screen also displays the situation at the rear of the 2008, due to the reversing camera, and controls the Park Assist feature for assisted parking manoeuvres. Finally, the right hand controls the Grip Control using the thumb wheel for accessing the five control modes.
This turbo-charged version is equipped with high-pressure direct injection (at 200 bars) and a new-generation high-performance turbo (running at 240,000rpm). It delivers high torque for its engine capacity, with 205Nm for the 82kW version and 230Nm for the 96kW version at 1,750rpm. In addition, the PureTech engine delivers exceptional performance, with constant power up to 6,500rpm, and remarkable acoustic comfort.
The petrol range of the new SUV 2008 includes a choice of five engines:
- 1.2L PureTech 82, 5-speed manual gearbox, 4.9l/100km, with CO2 at 114g/km
- 1.2L PureTech 82, 5-speed electronically-controlled gearbox, 4.4l/100km, with CO2 at 102g/km

The BlueHDi 1.6L Diesel engine is an exclusive combination of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology and additivated Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This engine is characterised by its pleasure to drive and record low fuel consumption, regardless of the version – 75, 100 and 89kW.
The SCR technology is the most effective on the market in terms of post-treatment of nitrogen oxides (NOx), as it is the only one to reduce NOx by up to 90%. Installed upstream of the additivated DPF, it is activated at an early stage. This is made possible by the additivated DPF’s ability to regenerate at a lower temperature than the other DPF technologies as used by our competitors. The additivated DPF removes 99.9% of all particles, including the finest.
The Diesel range of the new SUV 2008 includes a choice of six engines, all of them with CO2 emissions at less than 100g/km:
