Peugeot has lifted the veil on the prices of its new 3008. The SUV in its 100% electric version will start from 44,990 euros before deduction of the ecological bonus. This is the price to pay to get your hands on a model with a transformed design, with much sharper lines like an SUV coupe.
[Mis à jour le 11 janvier à 16h48] A great success for Peugeot, the 3008 remains one of the French’s favorite SUVs. Before being replaced shortly by the third generation, the 3008 II, although at the end of its career, still sold more than 30,000 copies in France, making it the 12th best-selling new model in the country. . His replacement, revealed last September, has everything to do just as well. But the manufacturer had not yet revealed the prices of its compact SUV, this has been done since January 11. While waiting for new engines to be announced, Peugeot has given the price of its mild hybridization version, which will start from 38,490 euros, and of its 100% electric version, a new feature for the 3008, now equipped with a 210 horses and a 73 KwK battery. At entry level, in the Allure finish, the e-3008 will cost 44,990 euros, it will be 2,000 euros more for the GT finish (46,990 euros). In both cases, the e-3008 remains eligible for the ecological bonus since its price does not exceed the limit set at 47,000 euros.
Unveiled on September 12 at its historic production site in Sochaux, the new Peugeot 3008 presents a new, more distinct look, now sporting the lines of an SUV coupe. Inside, the all-new Peugeot Panoramic i-Cockpit and its large 21-inch screen should appeal to more than one person. The Lion brand has chosen to abandon 100% thermal engines on the European market, opting exclusively for all-electric or hybrid.
Launched in 2016, the second generation Peugeot 3008 was a huge success for Peugeot. With more than 1.3 million units sold, it is, by far, the brand’s most profitable model, and its restyled version, released in 2020, only consolidated its leadership in the very buoyant SUV segment. compact.

After the immense success of the second generation 3008, expectations surrounding its successor, the Peugeot 3008 III, were inevitably high. The Lion brand, under the orders of its chief designer Matthias Hossann, inducted in 2020 after the departure of Gilles Vidal at Renault, was not content with a bland copy and paste on its most “bankable” model. Here are the main new features to know.
- Praised when the 3008 II was released in 2016, the design of the new version has been renewed in an even more dynamic style. The body lines of the 3008 III appear more refined and sharp. This is all the more visible at the rear of the car with this very vertical tailgate and the even more pronounced inclination of the window, which clearly gives the new 3008 the appearance of a coupe SUV, like the Renault Arkana and Rafale. Still at the rear, the Peugeot brand is now written in full on a black strip connecting lights whose three-claw light signature has been revisited.

- On the front of the vehicle, the 3008 III also adopts Peugeot’s new lighting identity with the three LED claws placed under the lights. But unlike the 2008 little brother, the claws do not go lower than the imposing grille. The lower part of the shield accommodates a large air inlet divided into two parts. The new Peugeot coat of arms, with a restyled lion’s head, is visible in the center of the grille, as well as on the rims and on the fenders of the vehicle depending on the range.

- Outside, the new 3008 is longer than its predecessor (4m54 compared to 4m45 for the old version). The SUV has also gained in width (1m89, +5cm) and height (1m64, +2cm). The lines of its silhouette are much sharper, ultimately seeking to improve aerodynamics.
- Inside, the third generation 3008 is the first model from the lion brand to benefit from the new Peugeot Panoramic i-Cockpit. Its main innovation lies in its impressive 21-inch high-definition curved panoramic screen placed high on the dashboard. This single panel is only virtually separated by a black band in order to distinguish the instrument cluster bringing together above the steering wheel all the information related to driving (speed, power meter, driving aids, energy flow, etc.). .) and the touchscreen part on the right part of the panoramic screen which allows you to manage the heating/air conditioning, navigation, media/connectivity systems, etc. The screen extends from the left end of the panel edge to the center console. For the brand, “the floating effect is accentuated by specific LED ambient lighting located under the screen.”
- Still in the cockpit, the central part of the dashboard accommodates the i-Toggles, “fully customizable tactile keys which allow quick access to 10 user preferred functions to be programmed, whether calling a favorite contact, launch navigation to a frequent destination, tune the radio to a popular station, set the ideal air conditioning temperature, etc.”
- The small steering wheel, which has become a trademark at Peugeot, the brand believing that its association with the head-up instrument panel offers optimal driving comfort, is still required. But the central cushion has been redesigned, smaller, to give, according to the manufacturer, “a levitation effect reminiscent of that of the panoramic screen on the dashboard.” The buttons on the steering wheel are now tactile with “clickable touch” controls that only activate if the driver presses long enough.
- Finally to finish with the interior, the gear lever is also different between the second and third generation 3008. Gone is the stock-shaped lever, replaced by an electric control raised and located next to the start button.
Thermal enthusiasts will have to mourn their loss: the new Peugeot 3008 no longer offers any 100% gasoline or diesel engine. The SUV, the first model built on the new STLA Medium platform from the Stellantis group, will exist in a version with mild hybridization while waiting, normally, for a plug-in hybrid version. It will be equipped with a gasoline engine with a power of 136 horsepower, coupled to a 6-speed electrified double-clutch gearbox which integrates an electric motor, and a 48V battery. But the big news is that the 3th generation of the Peugeot 3008 is now available in 100% electric.
The e-3008 will offer three electric engines: a 210 horsepower motor associated with a 73 KwK battery for a range of 525 kilometers, a dual 320 horsepower motor with the 73 kWh battery in four-wheel drive for an identical range, and finally the 230 horsepower engine associated with a 98 kWh battery, called “High Autonomy”, which will allow its occupants to travel 700 kilometers with a full recharge. But for the moment, only the first of the three versions detailed here is available for order since January 11, 2024.
The 3th generation of the 3008 was revealed on September 12 in the historic Sochaux factory. The manufacturer announced that the arrival in dealerships of the star of its models was scheduled for February 2024.
Four months after revealing its new 3008, Peugeot lifted the veil, on January 11, 2024, on the prices of its SUV. At least on the versions whose engines are available for the moment since some will come a little later (see above). Thus, the manufacturer has revealed the prices of the mild hybridization version and those electrified with the 210 horsepower engine and the 73 KwK battery. The 3008 HYBRID 136 e-DCS6, which can “drive more than 50% of the time in 100% electric mode in urban traffic” according to the lion brand, is available to order from 38,490 euros.
Regarding the e-3008, it will always be eligible for the ecological bonus, whatever the finish, since its price will start below 47,000 euros (the threshold not to be exceeded in order to benefit from state aid) , from 44,990 euros in the Allure finish and…46,990 euros in the high-end GT finish. This is rather good news because the first estimates indicated a price of between 45,000 and 50,000 euros. But it remains more expensive than the new Renault E-Scénic, the prices for which were revealed a week earlier. For 46,990 euros, before the deduction of the ecological bonus (which can go up to 7,000 euros), buyers will be able to get their hands on the SUV from the diamond brand in its long-range version (625km). The entry price of the 100% electric Scénic is 39,990 euros, which is 5,000 euros less than that of the Peugeot e-3008.
