I don't live in UK.. I don't want to buy a CAR as of now.. I don't need to watch any video of car.. yet every time I eat.. these carwow videos are first choice 😁 I guess addiction 😭

15:17 Matt says: "it's parking well in tight spaces" while parking it in a huge space :)

Talking about a Peugeot can evoke a strong emotion, so not surprised about the Parental Advisory warning as I begin watching this video

You know Mat's gone wild with this one when there's a Parental Advisory warining right in the title.

2:55 looks like Mat already scratched the door bins before filming this video :D

Wow the interior is actually so nice damnnn

I bought the 2018 model, which is almost identical except for the front grill. There's a reason you see so many of these on the road, it's an excellent, good looking family car. Granted I don't know how much the competition has improved, but I'd buy another 5008 in a heartbeat.

Peugeot is just absolutely killing it. I'm getting a new car next month, and I put the 208 down as my preferred choice. Let's hope!

9:28 in the predecessor Lane Keep Assist is integrated to the center display 9:37 in the predecessor There's an extra little cover to fill the gap between 2nd row seats & boot also to cover the valuables in this case

Just what I needed this morning! A Peugeot review yay 😀

Can't wait for your review of the New Peugeot 308!

When I saw parental advisory I clicked faster than my dad leaving us😬👋

Anyone else really confused when they saw this title in their notifications

French designers and engineers are bonkers. I just love them.

Me: *sees title* Also me: *starts playing that ohhhhh yeeeeaahhhh song in the background*

A couple of days ago, four of us were driving for a whole day in this master peace. Two of us over 200 cm, let me tell you, we were delighted by the amount of space on the front and in the back. I could easily sit behind front seat moved all the way to the back. It is fast, very good in curves and uphill. All in all, a very good car. The best thing about it : after almost a whole day of driving we weren't tired.

As I said with the 3008, I really like that blended Front Grill!

Leg space really is alright. I am 178cm and when i put front seat to my ideal position and move second rows a bit forward, you can get comfortable in both rows. My only issue was 3rd headspace as my head would touch the ceiling if i sit up straight. I wonder if panaromic roof eats into 3rd row head space as well + You get extra cargo area underneath the 3rd row seats when they are up. Can take a few bags for sure!

I own a 3008 SUV and it took me all of a couple of hours to get used to the cruise control. After using it a few times you don't have to look for it.

Anyone else spotted Mat’s RS6 when he was parking?

Nothing can beat Peugeot's interior design

Can’t wait to see Peugeot 308 GT review

Hope you guys will do a review for the new Peugeot 308 too!

6:52 THANK YOU. every other reviewer slide their seat all the way back and then complaint how they don't have enough knee room in the back. wtf

And that was a good review. Good job. 👍

Literally everyone: Large SUV! America: Midsize...

Nice to see 'normal' car reviews coming back! Still waiting for reviews of cars such as the ford kuga.

Good upload this glad to see your doing more of this style again.

One thing he forgot. The only SUV with a 3 isofix chairs in the 2nd row. So good work.

I suspect the rear trays release easily for safety....having them fixed would be somewhat dangerous during an incident!

The intro was really good. Keep this style!

we rented a 5008 and drove from northern germany to austria. Had a massive disc herniation and couldnt drive that long with our c-class. With this car it was really comfy, despite the standard seats. Boot is enormous. Build quality was okayish, but hey it was a rental car.

This is one of the rarest attractive car if you have 3 kids.

it good to see car review from my country 🙃

Done 10 months in a 5008 Active petrol 1.2 manual. Very nice drive. Handles like a much smaller vehicle. No fatigue on long drives. Very easy on the ear / eyes/ driving muscles.

That comparision with nespresso Matt 🤣🤣🤣 As a French I loved it. Spot on !

I got used to the cruise control very quickly. And the good thing is that it stays on after turning the car off. With my Toyota I had to enable it again each time.

Nespresso isn’t instant coffee 😂 it’s grounded coffee ... Nescafé alegria is though! Yes! I’m fun at parties.... ps. My profession

I’m not the only one who jams to the Carwow trumpet song

Great video as usual! I was just disapointed for not having heard any famous french accent from mat 😂

Are you reviewing 308? Re-branded and renovated.. i think it's a lot to discuss..

i liked the new intro line ' I'm Mat Watson, this is carwow and i hope you all enjoy the video'

This filming location really takes me back 10 years ago, in the Carbuyer period.

Fortunately carwow is listening and making videos less annoying! Thank you!

Got one. Got 3 small kids and the 3 full seats in the back were the seller for me. Loads of room.

I honestly thought he was going to say, Just go ahead and buy it. Thats how impressive the Peugeot is.

Your coffee analogy is like “a car is like a bus taking you from a to b” 😂

Mat, how about 1,2l petrol engine which you recommended for 3008? Will it be enough for 2-3 person's comfortable ride?

Was waiting for this, next is the new Kia Sorento, then SantaFe and all head to head of Skoda Kodiaq VW Tiguan AllSpace vs Peugeot 5008 vs Kia Sorento vs SantaFe

Peugeot: it's basicly a mini bus Also Peugeot: it needs a flappy pedal gear box

While I love dreaming and all that, I do love the every day people car reviews the most 👍🏻

My parents have one of these pre facelift. They picked it over the Kodiaq because the 3rd row seats are ever so slightly more usable. in therms of foot and head space. Which explanes the smaller boot capacity when all seats are deployed. The Tiguan Allspace was also considered, but it's virtually identical to the Kodiaq in therms of practicallity. Honestly neither of these 3 options feature a really comfortable experience in the 3rd row.

Peugeot is killing it with their design and quality since 2017 . Bravo Peugeot you nailed it against

I like the styling of this. It actually looks more like a crossover than an MPV, maybe because of the regular rear doors.

I just bought a 20 plate biggest selling point is the 3 iso fixes in the back which many cars don’t offer. I really like the car and great for families with young kids as my 3 are still in car seats

Thank you for a great review without obnoxious/lame music!!!

Mat: No one wants an MPV, they're not cool Kia Carnival: Allow me to introduce myself

The reason why the 5008 can’t be had as a plug-in hybrid like the smaller 3008 is because the batteries in the hybrid versions of the 3008 are also where the 3rd row seats would be in the 5008 - in the boot floor, meaning there wouldn’t be enough room under the boot floor for both the batteries and the third-row seats.

9:30 - does the gap in front of the load cover disappear if the seats are fully reclined? It looks like you returned them to an intermediate position when you demo'd the recline feature.

Thanks for the information now i know more about this model.

I love it. But I want the new design with the new badge

My family has driven the old 5008 for 3 years (we leased it). We put over a 100k miles on it in this short amount of time and never had trouble going 600 miles or more without stopping for long because the car is amazingly comfortable. It never broke down or had any issues, we only damaged the parking sensors once, which the mechanic fixed for cheap. It really is one of the most practical and comfortable cars I’ve ever had the pleasure to sit in, it’s very hard finding a better car for the price. The only thing I would critique is, that it was quite oil thirsty and we had to fill up on oil a lot more often than we had to do with our 508. Nonetheless I think Peugeot have changed the game with their cars quite a lot. The old cliche of Peugeot’s driving and feeling like a bag of nails is not true anymore, they nowadays build very good cars which are hard to compete with.

The main thing I noticed with the tray table "annoying thing" was that the drivers seat didnt move in the slightest when Mat was hitting it. Seems like an absolute win with someone with annoying children!

Hi Matt, when reviewing the engines you first recommended the 1.5tdi, then on the motorway, the 2.0tdi. Is the 1.5tdi responsive enough. (currently driving a skoda superb 2.0tdi....leaning towards a kodiaq 2.00tdi). Would a 1.5tdi be a major drop.

Whenever I see there's a review of a Peugeot I instantly click, not sure why, maybe just to look at how beautiful their cars are 😊

Peugeot has come a looooong way.

Peugeot are making far better cars now than they did in the 2000s and most of the 2010s

Mat dont look so amazed! I bought this car after looking at your previous review :)

I purchased the 2017 Peugeot 3008 GT line on the back of Matt’s review a couple of years ago and it’s been a decent little SUV. Never fancied the 5008 as it just looks like a stretched version of the 3008. Not enough upgrades in the revamped versions for me to warrant an upgrade. Nice video Matt 👍🏻

Every Peugeot review says the same thing about the dash visibility... But... You're meant to look through the wheel, not over it, certainly in the previous generation of cars. Different to other manufacturers, but unless you're 7 foot or 4 foot tall it's not likely to be a problem.

All Your Videos Mat Are Very Nice... You are a very good person and very nice... Thanks for all these videos Mat. 👍👍👍

@Mat Watson Cars Hy Matt! What do you think about the middle row seat recline angle between this the c4 grand spacetourer and Renault Espace 2015-? I can't decide between thes cars upon this factor? Which car from these is the most comfortable in the back row on extra long ditance journeys? Thanks in advance!

as a Puget owner I must say the sport mode changes the power immensely and you can feel the increase in horse power. Not something you test driving 32km/h. Just thought u didn't do it justice in your review.

Espresso Coffee 🤣🤣🤣🤣 exactly when I get up, my mouth is watering rn

This has told me why you looked so laid back on the latest post for Instagram. Well-designed equipment for family use though I would expect a little more tweaks on its interior.

Many people get mad and say "He shoud be serious when reviewing a car" Cmon people,are we really interested what kind of Engine Chossies a Peugeot 5008 has? Not really are we,so a little bit of humor can just make the whole rview more Exciting and interessting to watch!

We need the Peugeot 508 PSE review Matt 😁😁😁

Mat sees fake exhausts. His brain: WHAT ARE THOOOOOOOSE

That gap between the rear seats and the load cover is there to allow the seats to recline...

I love @Mat Watson parking spaces. In Rome, you fit 2 cars in that manoeuvre! =D

One of very few 7 seaters that will fit 3 kids seats in the back. this is definitely getting shortlisted!

How do Peugeot refer to the fake exhaust pipes in their spiel? Would love to know 🧐

Peugeot own the French company that do interiors for manufacturers all cars

I’m eagerly waiting for Mat to review the new Skoda Enyaq! Please let it happen soon!

I know these "ordinary" cars are not the most popular on the channel, but I really love watching reviews of the ones that some of us can actually buy!

Mat Watson big fan from bangladesh

thank you for your efforts, can you please make a review the Volkswagen t-roc cabriolet

Thank you for posting this review. My family & I are visiting the UK from Canada this summer. I've hired this model for the 6 of us, hoping it's large enough with our suitcases?

I'll post it here again till Mat sees: My Mrs pointed out that Mat's Instagram is basically 'Ma Twats On Cars' and I can't unsee it 😂😂😂😂

Thanks a lot for the review, I just ordered the GT Pack 2L Diesel with 7 seats, grip control and night vision, instead of the Skoda Kodiaq Style 4x4. I love the interior and the comfort from Peugeot, thanks for sharing!

Great review, much thanks

Btw I just clicked cz I saw parental advisory on your thumbnail 😂😂😂

Mat, you know what's doing my head in? The fact that I know don't know how fare the back windows are going down... :(

Have owned the 2018 GT 5008 2.0 Diesel since new, which basically is only externally cosmetically different from the the new one, and the gearbox. Couple of comments on things that were said and also missed in the review: 1. I have the Panoramic Roof, and due to that, its missing the centre ceiling light. And its sooooooooo annoying that the little crappy lights above the doors to compensate for that missing light are so bad!! They simply dont light up enough and dont even have the ability to auto turn on when you open the doors. I think this must have been an oversight in the design process. 2. The piano buttons have a tendency to have the silver veneer rub out, I've got a warranty claim on this and I've heard that its happening to a lot of people. Its only cosmetic, but looks horrendous while everything else looks so classy. 3. Never had an issue with the elbow in the coffee cup, as described in this review. 4. I'm 6 foot and the cluster above steering wheel design is no issue, I actually love it due to the wheel being smaller and more ergonomic. 5. I'm so glad they changed the transmission to 8 speed. The 6 speed is god-awful, especially as it feels like CVT all the way to 3rd. It is baaaad, and I'm not surprised they changed it. 6.The secret storage under the floor mats is so damn handy. Good for using for long trip snacks and drinks. Use a freezer pack in it to cool your stuff. Its awesome!! 7. Your 5 Annoying things - a) Agree with you on the cruise control buttons stalk, what a crappy design. b) the back cover issue is only apparent when you dont have the seats reclined slightly. A non-issue really. Even in this position as in the video, NOBODY will see your valuables due to the tint, as its too dark to see. c) You have a bony ass. That ridge has no issues. d) The back seat tray doesnt do that on my car, I think you had an issue only on your car to be honest. e) Agree with you, the glove box is too small in right hand drive. IT IS BAD. 8, The right hand drive design has one more big problem you didnt mention. Good luck changing the cabin filter, as you literally have to put your hand into a lions cage in the zoo. I ripped my arm to shreds while changing it as you have to do that from the drivers side which mans you got the steering column and pedals to navigate through. What a disaster!!! I managed it, but took me good 30 mins. 9. When you remove the back seats, be careful not to stack items that are too heavy. I dont actually recommend removing them, and I simply have had no reason to do that.....ever. there is no point to be honest as I always prefer a flat surface when hauling stuff anyway, and you have that with the seats folded anyway. 10. 2.0 Diesel has good power. I cant complain, even when I'm used to fast cars. More than enough even with 7 people. 11. Suspension is AWESOME, even when fully filled with ankle biters and stuff in the back!!! Enough said. 12. Who cares about all-wheel drive. I was so apprehensive about it before I bought it, as I'm used to VW's and Skodas, but now, I can tell you that its quite noticeable on fuel consumption being way better in the pug and almost zero wheel spin in wet. Ok, now the really bad stuff. 1. Holy crap the 2.0 diesel is loud. It's like driving a Tiger Tank. 2. Some build quality issues, like the A-pillar cloth covers not snapping in correctly. Warranty job. The plastic shims around the back doors sliding off. Warranty job. etc etc. 3. My wife loves her nails. Good luck to the door paintjob under the door handles. Not sure its the design, but it looks like a cat has been using its for a scratch post. Never happened on any other car. 4. I'm paying such good coin for this car, why doesnt it come with pneumatic hood lifters instead of the prop bar? Did it really need a $5 job to save Pugs factory the coin on this car? 5. OMFG THE STOP-START FUNCTION IS BAD!!!!! It's like they glued on the feature without real proper engineering integration!! Not very intuitive, jerky when starting, VERY slow to start up, makes the car spin wheels from lights. My standard operating procedure when getting in the car is to turn this off as the first thing to do, BECAUSE YOU CANT TURN THIS OFF PERMANENTLY!!!! WTF Peugeot!!??? 6. Lane keeping assist basically wants you to have a car accident! I think it was designed by a serial killer that works for Peugeot, and he/she is angry, but also strong. The steering literally will push you so hard if you get too close to the edge of the road that you will end up on the other side of the road about to have a head-on. It's like an old-school teacher in a catholic school pulling your ear to the principals office. I'm actually so scared now of it, I pay attention to keeping perfectly in the middle of the road to not get a D in driving class. All in all, what a fabulous car as a package, granted some of the old French car stigma rears its arrogant head in a few strange areas. I am super satisfied with it and would recommend it to anyone like me who is in a 3-child purgatory that requires separation between the devil spawns. We have a permanent 2-2-1 setup, where the potential future crime lord sits in the 3rd row, away from the rest of the family. Be prepared for the ooohhhh's and aaaahhhh's from the uninitiated people as they enter your French boudoirs of a vehicle, as the cockpit is a pleasure to sit in and the view is magnifique.

Love the “boor” at 7:44 😂

but the steering wheel can cut a view at a classic instrument panel. It is very relative, and the advantage of the instrument panel at eye level is significant...

"So in this video, I'm going to tell you whether this is a car that you can buy with your heart, as well as your head." Idk why but I felt that 😳

For those who are wondering about the title: 14:53

@carwow - Is this the better the the Touran for a family of 5? I know it looks more exciting - but it is it BETTER?

Peugeot 5008 is the best family SUV because it has got three back seats 👍😁😃🚗 Very good video Mat!
