The headroom in the 2nd row is completely ok if you dont get the panoramic sunroof and I am 190cm. Mat stressed it too much, i think. What he did not stress is that you can actually carry 3 passengers in the 2nd row because you have three separate seats, plus you have a flat floor, no bump in the middle. Kodiaq feels like cheap ship compared to 5008, it just is more luxurious and is also quieter in the cabin as well.

Peugeot have upped their game with the 3008 and 5008 big time

Review as a new owner of a 5008 GT Line Peugeot ( Its long I know) As a Swede, Peugeot cars are rare on the roads (lots of old Volvos), and not really mentioned that much, but as I needed to look after a car that suits a family of 4 children, I turned my head to the Peugeot car dealer. My first impression when I saw the car, and sat down and touched the I-cockpit I felt impressed. Design, and the feeling of quality were direct and instant. I needed though a car as I mentioned to travel with 4 kids, and the seatings are very nice. You can change how they should be in every possible way, and it suits me perfect. With fewer kids in the car, they have a living room back there, and the back row are the favorite spot for the younger ones. As you might get it now, I bought a 5008 GT line, lots of extra extra, and Ive had it now for 4 months and I just wanted to leave a comment that might help other buyers. My thoughts so far and I will only mention the negatives (remember, its MY thoughts, not a freaking science report): Negatives: - As mentioned before I think, the position of the left foot when your driving longer haults, and you wanna rest it on the preferred spot aint good. Im not that tall, but my legposition when resting my left leg aint great. You need to stretch it behind the brakepedal to stretch it out. No biggie really, but people having said this before are 100% right. - I feel the touchscreen in the middle of the cockpit and the processor behind the interlay are a bit slow. Hard to explain, you need to mix with it, try it out in action for a longer period of testing, but just a quick example: When reducing the volume of the radio, or whatever sound you might have on, its a delay of showing it on the screen, and it feels like a slow computer that have a shortage of RAM memory. This is also not a big issue, but everyone that know the feeling of a slow computer or smartphone can relate to this. - What else, well Im used with engines with almost 300hp and when i went for a testdrive with the car the cardealer had, it was the weakest engine, dont remember the spec now (105hp?), but I´ve read reviews that it was totally ok to have that even though this is a big 7-seater. I really cant say it is. I might be spoiled, but it aint much fun when the sound from the car feels strained and you really cant get the car moving. I went for the 165hp petrol and with a light turbo this engine is fine, but of course not a powerhouse. Best part, having cars before that I needed to refuel all the time , this 5008 GT are very fuel-efficent. - The drivers seat. I guess you can have the choice as an add-on, but the length of the drivers seat, well both front seats, could be longer for your legs and bum. Hope you understand what I mean, and I guess you probably can cash out and get better comfort. There are lots of smooth nice details as positives that I can mention but I guess it aint as interesting to read about really, but if your a big family and like design, a good looking car, but great quality, nice details I really can say, that you cant be dissapointed really. Its not a sportscar, its a family car Royale!

That interior has to be one of the best of any car on sale today.

I drove the Peugeot 3008 and it was my "Goldilock's" car… it was just right! These Pug's really did feel like driving the future. When you do as many km's a year as I do for work then the warranty and servicing intervals make this a car seriously worth considering, especially with all the kit you get on them.

Mat = Best honest car reviewer. Period!

Nice review matt as usual. Keep it up with your amazing work!

This is fascinating point. The mid+rear seats of the 5008 is IDENTICAL to the Citroen Picasso C4 Grand. The individual 3 sliding seats, the under floor storage, flip trays and nets, the rear seat folding mechanisms, the multiple flaps to provide a smooth floor, the roll out luggage cover design and 2 position storage. Its seems pretty clear that Peugeot and Citroen are sharing parts or at least the design details

I find nothing wrong with French cars at all. I enjoy the comfort of the Frenchie's as well as the Germans

Nice review matt as usual. Keep it up with your amazing work! That interior has to be one of the best of any car on sale today.

Does this mean he's not coming on then?

3:30 the tray tables do that in case you crash If they didn’t you would sustain serious injuries and food on the floor is better than being in a hospital I had a Citroen c4 Picasso and the tables did that

Peugeot 5008 SUV Reviews: Matt: 588k views Carbuyer: 150k views Whatcar: 78k views Great work Matt and the rest of the team, keep it up!!!

The interior of both the 3008 and 5008 are gorgeous!

Great Review Mat! Greetings from Brazil!!!

Got a 5008 GT Line in 2019, pleased with the features. The interior is futuristic.

Peugeot is coming back!

Amazing how Serra da Arrábida is great to make videos. Hope you guys had fun making the review of this car in my town.

Filmed in Portugal in the "Serra da Arrábida"!

did you film this video in Portugal? Serra de Arrábida and Parque das Nações in Lisbon?

I love the footwell storage however it wouldn't want to be prone to heat damage as I suspect its going to be pretty warm down there.

Isn''t it the same case with the rear tables in the Tiguan as those open from downwards up? So they could as easily retract down again for safety reasons in case of a collision?

Great review carwow ! appreciate your objectivity about latest peugeot products ! it has in my opinion been lacking a lot in the last 10 years in most Uk media.

Mr. Watson, thank you for the test you're making on our behalf. Could you be so kind to tell your personal choice of a seven seater (say, the third row mainly to crry two kids few times a year for lest than four hours each time), well equipped and with the good engine? I was initially considering VW Sharan, but the new "Skodiaq" looks great, this Peugeot 5008 seems to be good too. Galaxy is on my list as well, but I might even consider the new Discovery. What would You take, given that choice?

Review the Sante Fe! I test drove the automatic diesel and really enjoyed it!

Not a people carrier fan, but this had that great French eccentricity of old.

Hey Carwow in process of ordering one of these through work, going for the GT spec, is the automatic ok to drive? I have never driven an auto btw but just like the look and amount of kit you get on the GT model but it only comes as an automatic, thanks

I wonder if anyone can tell me what the headroom is like on one of these (or the 3008) without the panoramic sunroof?

Does the floor storage in the rear mean you can't use an isofix seat with a floor support bar?

5008 is such a great car. It has distinctive design and excellent quality materials. Touran is so boring and dull and not even close to 5008.

Just drive this car today. Amazing car that handles really well, and also changed my "german cars Are the best" opinion.

The head room was tight because the seat was all the way back🤔 If you put the seat in the correct position then you can use the sunroof area for your head

Same as 2nd row in Espace! In 3008 rear seats are sitting lower, so they're not that comfy, but gets you headroom

Review the cupra 300 or the new S3

So how is the headroom with a regular non-panoramic roof?

Why make such a big deal about the added length. Its for the 3rd row. It has a purpose.

Isn't the lack of headroom in the 2nd row actually due to the presence of the pano roof? Would you try a 5008 without a pano roof to see if that makes a difference?

It would be great to see a review of it fully loaded with the 1.2 pure tech engine.

WOW I’m amazed how good Peugeot became ! It just Marvelous.

ur good man...keep up the reviews

Now you can do the school run in style!

what 7 seater car do you recomend besides 5008 and Skoda Kodiaq?

After having the 4007 when this comes out in the UK in January we're getting this immediately

2nd row head room is problematic only if you have sunroof. At 193 cm I have no problems without it! Great review channel!

whats the real life fuel consumption in 1.2 5008?

Can anyone tell me the size of the hood from the top to the ground?

where did you film the video? awesome

Matt.. KZfaq needs more people like you. Might as well run for Prime Minister?

Go Peugeot!!!

When will you review the new 5 series?

I have an old Tiguan and planned for new model as I was happy with it. But after I saw and drive it was very disappointed. Actually the old one is better quality. But this...after seeing a lot of test drive it got into my head....welcome back Peugeot...

Regarding the question, Yes it’s worth it, it’s not just 20cm but a gigantic boot space when seats in third row is flat and even with seats up it’s got enough for shopping of prams. The big yes is because of the third row, that is amazing, you have more seating, and payed flat it is just a great feature, you can even move them out. I love this car and have just ordered one but sadly will be made in December due to demand. I chose this against the Skoda Kodiaq, I chose the Peugeot in a Gt line premium which has everything without the sport engine model GT. my reason over the Skoda is I prefer the look exterior and interior, but mainly what extras I get with Peugeot rather than paying so much for extras which should have been standard on Skoda, sure you can get most things on Skoda but simple things like reverse camera costing £500 and safety feature packs just made it a no barber against the Peugeot coming with everything on the model I selected, I also love the three seats in the middle as supposed to the two with the tiny middle in the Skoda. Anyways a lot more reasons after a lot of thought but I can’t wait for the pearl white Peugeot 5008 GT line premium 😍

Good review Matt, as always great humour! Separate, moveable and removable rear seats is a great idea all marques should adopt and remove electric seats as unnecessary.

I'm considering buying one of these as they are very nice.

Idk whether to buy this to save money, and it is beautiful. Or whether I should by the Jaguar F Pace to me feel posh idk what do you guys recommend

can you do Grand scenic vs skoda Kodiaq vs Peugeot t 5008

Nice review 🎉

Perfect car for families!

I was going for the xtrail but i changed my mind and i am getting now 5008 1.2

Are there any more 7 seats suv from this year range, cars like mitsubishi outlander can someone reccomend a few

Most stylish,hightech-looking and futuristic looking interior(dash-board) ever!!!

Matt you need to do a review on the grand torneo connect.

5008 GT or Ford S Max Vignale or St line?? Which would you guys go for? Ford are offering 0% pcp finance plus around £7000 discount on rrp which makes it a decent deal.

It's very similar to the citoren c4 grand Picasso in the seating arrangements its the exact same boot size

Where is the spare tire located?

so this car same segment as honda crv and peugeot 3008 same segment with honda hrv?

does this compete with hyndai santa fe

Love the 5008

Don't forget that many buyers go for 7 seaters not because they need 7 seats but they want a bigger boot and more passenger space. If you have small children all needing big car seats and you need to carry buggies etc these variants are a much better option. We've had a Grand C4 Picasso for 2 years and used the extra seating maybe twice in that time - space wise it's perfect though.

can u review the Toyota Prius plus?

I like those french backlights. This is the best thing in this car.

I love your videos :)

This video was shoot in Portugal???

seriously what wd you rather have, one of these or BMW grand touring

The view window look really nice

Really like the look of the 3008 just unsure if pugeout and Renault are more reliable and better buys than they used to be or am I safer going for a tiguan, ateca, CX5 or kuga need help to decide folks

As always Matt gets on with it, no bull shit and tells you what you want to Know and throws in a bit of cheesy humour.

Thanks! It is a a very involving video!

can you do the new Impreza please?

1:06 Does this storage in the floor actually mean that you are not able to install ISO fix base for the child seat? I heard ISO fix base leg should not be installed on the top of the plastic lid of the storage containers. I would like to see crash test of ISO fix chairs on this car.

side profile reminds me of landrover discovery

Three isofix chairs in the first row is a win!!!

Better than the Renault Espace.

I see this as an advantage to get In-built giant screen for entertainment n to locate the places nearby...

Hi mat! Now when the new Peugeot 3008 and 5008 has came, could you please review them, it would mean so much😁

Talking about the headroom in the middle seats, does he stopped to think that the sunroof is taking 5 ctms and that's why for a tall person the middle seats have little space? This car is lovely for me, I saw it today in the dealer and I'm pushing my wife for it, don't know if I'll make it 'cause she likes the Tiguan. Not comparable I tell her, but you know women.

this car is a 19/20

2:47 Matt driving the car... 2:59 car driving the car! Need this magic car

I was expecting you to say you can lock open these chairs and use them outside the car like in a picnic. I wonder though.

which color is it ? I think it's not blue color

Do you ever get confused changing from driving on the left side in the UK to driving on the right side in Europe? I would guess that's pretty difficult to suddenly adapt to.

So your main criticism ist the lack of headroom in the middle row, IF you buy the sunroof that many people won't buy anyway?

Wow this thing is pretty cool. I'm going to have to check out this 3008 being mentioned, lol.

am i the only one whos freakin out when Matt Suddenly switch to the back seat..dahek?!

Lucky you, driving in Portugal!...

Could literally take those seats out and have my 4 trousers and 4 shirts nicely folded and the other bit can have me pyjamas lol then fold it all down and have a nice sleep in my sleeping bag ready for work and so much storage can even fit a small cooker for dinner hahaha

That interior design is superb!!! Only thing I'm not sure about is the steering wheel / dial positioning.

5008 or grand scenic?

I love the 5008 just just in case you have lots of truck space or extra seats and the fuel consumption is almost the same as 3008. I prefer the 5008, more useful and still super stylish.

the interior looks nice...
