Details
Peugeot 2008 is a subcompact crossover SUV that rivals Kia Stonic, MG ZS, and Chery Tiggo 4 Pro. It has a 1.2-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder petrol engine that produces 131 hp and 220 Nm of torque, which goes to the front wheels via a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
2008 comprises several high-tech amenities like adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, blind-spot detection, hill-start assist, lane-keeping assist, electronic stability programming (ESP), drowsiness detection, road sign, speed limit recognition, a 180° camera, overhead vehicle view, etc.
Despite its appeal, 2008 lags behind where it counts the most, i.e. pricing. According to industry reports, LMC is struggling to sell a favorable number of 2008 units due to a common notion that it is “too expensive.”
