Is the Peugeot E-5008 a good car?

There really aren’t very many all-electric seven-seat cars right now, and precious few which are priced to compete with this new Peugeot E-5008. Buying one of these kind of feels like shopping in an outlet mall — you’re getting what you need, but for much less. 

Mostly, seven-seat SUVs with all-electric power are big, expensive things like the Kia EV9 or the Volvo EX90. Peugeot, though, gives you the E-5008 for a price that’s just about affordable, even if it is rather more expensive than the hybrid or plug-in hybrid versions of the same car. 

The Peugeot E-5008 is hardly any less handsome than the big Kia either. At the front, it has a massive grille that stretches all the way across the front of the car, and which is framed by slim headlights and three LED daytime running lights on each side which are supposed to look like the Peugeot lion has slashed at the car with its claws.  

While the E-5008’s slightly smaller brother, the E-3008, has an almost coupe-like roof which drops down sharply behind the rear seats, the E-5008 gets a more conventional, big-and-bulky SUV look, which isn’t quite as striking but means you get much more space in the back. 

As has become a Peugeot tradition, in the front the E-5008 gets a tiny six-sided steering wheel which sits in your lap and feels really small for a car this big. It’s a driving position that still feels slightly strange after all these years, but you do get used to it after a while. 

There’s no denying the Apple Store-style drama of the rest of the dashboard, though. There’s a massive curved 21.0-inch screen stretching across the dashboard, which is actually two screens — a driver’s instrument panel and an infotainment touchscreen — in one frame. The main dials are set up high enough that there’s no need for a head-up display projected onto the windscreen. 

The main infotainment screen is mostly good and slick to use, but it can get a bit confusing and it doesn’t help that there are almost no physical buttons for things like the air conditioning. Peugeot does give the E-5008 some clever little digital shortcut buttons, called ‘i-Toggles’, which do help a bit, but even so things are fiddlier than they need to be. Vauxhall’s closely-related Grandland gets proper air-con controls, so why can’t Peugeot?

At least the cabin looks and feels like it’s really well made, and the soft fabric panels on the dashboard and doors lend the E-5008 a more lounge-like atmosphere. 

Despite its size, the Peugeot E-5008 promises impressive range – and the big battery version coming soon goes even further

There’s lounging space in the back seats too, with plenty of headroom and legroom, which is very definitely not the case in the smaller E-3008. The rear seat splits and folds in a 40:20:40 layout, so it’s versatile back there, but it’s a shame that the three ISOFIX points you used to get in the old 5008 have been reduced to two. It’s also a shame that the third row seats only fold down into the boot floor — in the old 5008, you could take them out altogether if you didn’t need them. 

If all of the E-5008’s seats have someone sat in them, there’s still a useful 348 litres of boot space left, and if you fold the third row seats away there’s a massive 914 litres, although some of that is in the under-floor space, which will mostly be full of charging cables. There’s no ‘frunk’ or ‘froot’ in the nose, but at least Peugeot does give you a slot under the floor to stash the retracting luggage cover when you don’t need it, which is good. Fold down all the back seats and there’s a massive 2,232 litres of space — even more than Kia’s massive EV9.

For now, the E-5008 comes with a single battery choice of a 73kWh (net useable) pack, mounted under the floor and powering a 210hp electric motor which drives the front wheels. Performance is pretty sedate — the E-5008 takes 9.7 seconds to hit 62mph, but then do you want to be trying to win a traffic light Grand Prix with the kids in the back? 

What matters more is the range, which is claimed at up to 339 miles, and which is actually pretty realistic. You should be able to get somewhere between 280 and 300 miles in real-world conditions. Thanks to the fact that the E-5008 uses Peugeot’s new STLA electric car platform, it’s also quick to charge, topping out at 160kW on a DC rapid charger, which means you can do a 20-80% charge in 30 minutes. Coming soon is a version with a bigger 98kWh battery and a range of up to 410 miles.

The Peugeot E-5008 is the most expensive of the new 5008 lineup, almost touching £50,000 in its basic Allure spec. Then again, it’s well-equipped at that price, and it’s considerably cheaper to buy than the likes of the Kia EV9 and Mercedes EQB, and way, way more affordable than a Volvo EX90. 

Peugeot E-5008 FAQs

Officially, the E-5008 currently has a range of up to 339 miles. That’s with the 73kWh battery pack and the 210hp electric motor. The four-wheel drive model, which has two motors and more power, has an official range of 311 miles. There will also be a long-range version with a 98kWh battery and a claimed range of 410 miles.

Officially, no it’s not — Peugeot is a mainstream car brand, and while the E-5008 is quite expensive, it’s far more affordable than comparable models from Mercedes and Volvo. That said, the cabin looks and feels way more expensive and high-tech than you might expect, and so the E-5008 can kind of compete with premium and luxury brands in that sense.

 For now, the E-5008 is officially rated to tow up to 1,000kg on a braked trailer or caravan, however it’s likely that more powerful versions due to come will be able to tow more than that.
