2021 Peugeot 2008 GT Sport Full Review
I loved this car when we previewed it last year, and I love it even more now, 2008 is Peugeot’s best kept secret. 2008 comes in 2 models, the Allure, and range topping GT Sport.
People buy SUVs with the idea of heading off into the yonder for some shootin, fishin, ‘n huntin. They never get farther afield than the gravel carpark at a country pub. Why then, is there such an obsession with AWD? Simply put, AWD gives grip on gorgeous roads as easily as it does on the filthiest mud track. If you want to go further, you’ll need proper 4WD. The trouble is Peugeot has none of it. Now it is part of Stellantis, there is an AWD system somewhere in the group to be had surely.
Does that really matter?
For most of us, no, and never will.
AWD uses slightly more fuel, fooling the frugal into thinking SUVs sans AWD are as capable, but they are not. So, if they can’t really go into the tough stuff, what good are they? Consider this: Since most SUVs live most of their lives in town, and country trips are few and far between, 2008 finds itself in a market that competes directly against hatchbacks. Now, that is a whole other argument. Suddenly, 2008 becomes a good prospect.
