The model
Read full Peugeot 5008 reviewThe 5008 is stylish, practical, good to drive and one of our favourite large SUVs. It's relatively affordable to buy and run, especially if you go for the hybrid petrol engine. If you need even more space, the Kia Sorento is an even better bet, but a lot more money.
The trim
See full equipmentIf you can stretch to the Allure trim it's worth it for the extra safety kit, including blind spot recognition, driver attention alert and lane assist, the infotainment upgrades, such as the 10.0in screen and sat-nav, plus other niceties like ambient interior lighting, privacy glass and 18in alloys. We'd ideally spend a fraction more to get Allure Premium trim, though.
The engine
See full engine specsThis refined 1.5-litre diesel engine has a bit more low-down urgency than the similarly powerful Puretech petrol and sits in a lower company car tax group, but is pricier to buy.
