Second generation (2017-present)
The Peugeot 5008 II is an SUV of the French car manufacturer Peugeot unveiled to the press in September 7, 2016, before a presentation to the public scheduled for the Paris Motor Show 2016. It is essentially a seven-seater version of the 3008 II, which was to be released in the spring of 2017. It competes with other crossovers such as the Citroën C5 Aircross, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Santa Fe, Skoda Kodiaq, Subaru Forester, Ford Edge, and Toyota RAV4.
The 5008 II is assembled in France at the PSA plant in Rennes. Assembly in China takes place at the Dongfeng-PSA plant in Chengdu together with the 3008 II (Called 4008 in China) and the Citroën C5 Aircross. In China these three models all chair the same platform, engines and transmission.
Design
Unlike the previous generation that was a pure MPV, the 5008 II is displayed as an SUV to follow a current trend in sales. It is actually an extended version of the 3008 presented a few months ago. Specific elements include a different front grille and front bumper, and a chrome arch running through the entire pavilion to the bottom of the rear window.
In the same way, the interior essentially takes up the i Cockpit of its cousin. In particular, the 8 inch capacitive touchscreen, but also a 12.3 inch high resolution digital head up panel, is available.
On the other hand, the wheelbase extended to 2.84 m makes it possible to significantly increase the habitability; seven places are now available, divided into three rows. On the first, the passenger seat can be shelved to load the long objects. The second row is composed of three independent seats, retractable and adjustable in length and inclination. Finally the third includes two additional seats, also independent and retractable, but also extractable.
