The model

Read full review

Stylish, practical and good to drive, the well-equipped Peugeot 3008 is one of the best family SUVs you can buy. Go for the entry-level 1.2 PureTech engine unless you're a company car driver; a Plug-in Hybrid model will offer lower monthly BIK payments. There are better PHEV SUVs out there, though, and the Skoda Karoq is an even more practical alternative to regular models.

The trim

See full equipment

Entry-level Active Premium trim is certainly worth a look if you aren't overly fussed about creature comforts. It gets all the essentials, including automatic emergency braking, climate control, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, an 8.0in touch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto plus 17in alloy wheels.

The engine

See full engine specs

This refined 1.5-litre diesel engine has a bit more low-down urgency than the similarly powerful Puretech petrol and sits in a lower BIK group, too. It is pricier to buy, however.
