Overview

The Peugeot e-3008 is an electric SUV, and the zero-emissions equivalent of the third-generation Peugeot 3008. It’s been on sale since 2024, but will receive a major update in 2025 when dual-motor and long-range models with a larger battery join the current single-motor range in May. With its striking, coupe-like styling, the e-3008 is a visually appealing choice, but faces very tough and wide-ranging competition – all of which we’ve also driven and rated.

Being a contender in the popular five-seater family SUV class means the e-3008 takes on a huge array of all-electric rivals. Leading the pack is the 2025 Parkers Car of the Year award-winner, the Renault Scenic E-Tech. But you should also check-out other key alternatives such as the clever, technology-sharing Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6, the Volkswagen Group’s closely related quartet of VW ID.4, Skoda Enyaq, Cupra Tavascan and Audi Q4 e-Tron, and the fun-driving BMW iX3. It’s also hard to ignore the efficient Tesla Model Y, even if it’s not really one of our favourites.

Reasons to keep the e-3008 in your shortlist include its modern underlying platform and promising driving range. Even the smaller 73kWh battery has a WLTP rating of up to 326 miles per charge, with the new long-range models getting a massive 98kWh of capacity and as much as a claimed 435 miles. Buyers beware that you’re unlikely to go quite that far between charging points in reality, but on paper that’s one of the longest electric driving ranges of any vehicle and certainly the best in this class.

Pricing is rather punchy – and not in a good way. Even the least expensive model costs from £45,960 at the time of writing (April 2025), which means you’ll be faced with paying the luxury car tax supplement for the first five years. The e-3008’s appeal is also limited by its rather modest passenger space and lack-lustre driving dynamics. However, you do at least get a reasonable amount of standard equipment.

There are two trim levels: Allure and GT. Standard equipment on the e-3008 Allure includes 19-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry, a reversing camera, and an impressive 21.0-inch panoramic display that merges a digital instrument cluster with a large touchscreen. Top-spec e-3008 GT models come with 20-inch alloys, an Alcantara interior, and advanced pixel Matrix LED headlights.
