Stuart Milne, Editor at Carbuyer, said: “In a market crammed with great models, it takes something truly special to stand out in the SUV market, and that’s what the all-new Peugeot 3008 SUV does with style and grace.

“Its interior is a real highlight, with a genuine concept-car look and feel and a standard-fit i-Cockpit® digital instrument display. The all-new 3008 SUV is superbly practical, comfortable and safe, too. It also features a range of efficient engines that keep running costs down, while still remaining an excellent car to drive.”

In a sector that has fierce competition, the all-new 3008 SUV yet again proved itself with a combination of practicality, refinement and high quality design.

“We’d like to thank Carbuyer for the Best 4x4 & SUVs award and the Most Economical SUV award which have both also been given to the all-new Peugeot 3008 SUV this year.”
