The Peugeot 2008 is a five-seat small SUV sold with 1.2-litre turbo petrol or 54 kWh electric power and four trims, from Allure to GT Premium. This guide explains what the car is good at and how to pick the right version before you choose a lease deal.
From £334.06 per month inc. VAT
View dealThe Peugeot 2008 is a five-seat small SUV, 4.30 metres long, sold in one body style with either a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine or a 54 kWh electric powertrain. It sits above the 208 hatchback and below the larger 3008 in Peugeot's range.
It suits drivers who want a raised driving position and a smart cabin without a car that fills a parking bay. Families with young children, commuters and downsizers are the natural fit; four adults on a long trip less so.
The choice on this page is straightforward: one body, two powertrains, and four trims - Allure, Envy, GT and GT Premium. Pick the powertrain first, then the kit.

The 2008 is Peugeot's small SUV, and the current car is the second-generation model, on sale in this form since 2023. A small number of previous-shape versions may still be available while stocks last.
Reviewers consistently praise the styling and the cabin, which looks and feels more expensive than the class average, and they rate the 2008 as a quiet, comfortable cruiser rather than a sharp-handling one. The recurring criticism is space: it's a compact SUV, and rear head and leg room is tight for taller adults.
Practically, you get five seats, five doors, a 434-litre boot with the rear seats up and 1,467 litres with them folded. Every 2008 comes with a three-year or 60,000-mile manufacturer warranty.
One more thing worth knowing before you commit: Peugeot's small steering wheel and high-set instruments divide opinion. Sit in one.
Because the standard equipment list is generous across all four trims, and leasing keeps you in a car that's covered by its manufacturer warranty for the usual contract lengths. Every 2008 has a digital instrument cluster, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, air conditioning and LED headlights.
Safety and parking kit is standard too: autonomous emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and an electric parking brake. Privacy glass, roof rails and power-folding door mirrors are fitted across the range.
A 10.4-metre turning circle and 1.77 m width make it easy in town, and petrol versions can tow up to 1,200 kg braked. If you're weighing up spec against mileage and term, our guide to choosing your car is a sensible read first.
There are two: a 1.2-litre turbo petrol, or a 54 kWh electric version. Both drive the front wheels.
A three-cylinder engine with 100 to 143 bhp, offered with a manual or an automatic gearbox. WLTP economy runs from 45.0 to 62.4 mpg depending on version, and 0-62 mph takes between 8.3 and 10.8 seconds. It's the choice if you can't charge at home.
One motor, 154 bhp, automatic, with a WLTP range of up to 248 miles. Charging is up to 50 kW, giving 0-80% in 53 minutes on the best version, or a full charge in 4.5 hours at 11 kW at home. Best suited to drivers with off-street parking - our charging guide covers the basics.
