Peugeot E-2008

FIRST DRIVE Improved tech and greater range for popular SUV

- Alex Ingram

THE 2008 has greatest success stories of recent years. Since it was released in 2019, over 700,000 have been produced, and in 2021 it was the best-selling small SUV in Europe.

Peugeot isn't simply settling on a job well done, however, because four years into its life, the 2008 has received an update - and the most significant changes come to the all-electric E-2008 we're driving here.

The full line-up has been given a new look, with the biggest overhaul at the front. There's a new grille design that gets vertical inserts, while extra trim on its outer edges increases the impression of width and blends more neatly with the lights. These also feature a new 'triple claw' signature, which is repeated in the tail-lights.
