Peugeot 2008 1.2 (EAT6) 2017 is a petrol powerful SUV B segment that gives you a horse power of 110 or 81KW. You get a big boot space and you will also enjoy sitting on bucket seats and if you are driving around with kids the bench rear seat has been covered with semi leather seats meaning if they pour liquid eg yoghurt wiping it wont be a big issue.

Travelling for long distance gives you an amazing experience as the car is powerful thanks to its turbo beside consuming less fuel. With its tank of 50 litres you will drive for around 900km without refuelling if your plugs and tyre size are ok and wheel alignment is in order. Fuel consumption of the car is as follows. Urban fuel consumption 6.6L/100kms, highway or long distance drive is 4.4L/100km and a combined drive is 5.2L/100kms. It takes the car 10 seconds to hit 100km/hr meaning it picks very fast thanks to its EAT6 gearbox which changes gears almost immediately unlike say DSG of VW or CVT.

Luggage space is bigger than the one of its competitors eg Nissan Juke and Honda Vessel. If you love using cruise controls then Peugeot has equipped its cars with standard cruise controls system behind its versatile compact steering that is also equipped with audio steering controls. This particular unit has a drive selector mode at the centre console just behind the gear lever; it enables the driver to choose the drive mode at a given situation.
