The Peugeot 2008 has a really classy interior and is powered by punchy and efficient petrol engines. Go with the PureTech 130 in Allure trim for the best compromise on value and standard equipment. That said, the Ford Puma and Skoda Kamiq are better all-rounders, as is the Audi Q2 if you want a premium badge.
This entry-level trim is well equipped in some areas, getting wireless smartphone mirroring and cruise control. However, it also only gets 16in steel wheels (not alloys) and a less-advanced AEB system than the higher trims. We think it’s worth spending extra for Allure.
