With the new 5008, Peugeot has provided a new interpretation of the family wagon. This new model combines all the
brand’s key values but also builds further on the benefits expected by customers in this segment, without any adverse
effect on the vehicle’s road holding. The Peugeot 5008 is a car designed to set the benchmark in seven seat family wagon
category and represents a very solid addition to the Peugeot product line-up in Australia. It offers a responsive drive
and a quality interior, that is versatile and spacious.
With its new technology, excellent road holding and equipment, the 5008 is safe, engaging and luxurious – making it as
good to drive as it is to be driven in.
AN AERODYNAMIC AND ELEGANTLY STYLED PEOPLE CARRIER
In terms of exterior style, the Peugeot 5008 stands out with its balanced and particularly distinctive profile. The
front of the car, with its profiled headlamps and steeply plunging bonnet which extends backwards towards the large front
windscreen, has been designed to penetrate through the air in the most efficient way. The natural fluidity in the 5008 is
enhanced by the chrome detailing decorating the front grille which gives the car an elegant and luxurious appeal.
The design of the vehicle’s sides provides an impression of movement, while the high waist line inspires safety.
The large glazed surface area encircles the entire car without any interruption. This provides a bright and pleasant
passenger compartment ambience for the benefit of all the occupants, not least the rear passengers who also receive the
full benefit of the extra light provided by the large panoramic glass roof.
The Peugeot 5008’s profile reveals an elegant styling line which starts at the level of the rear door and becomes more
accentuated on the rear guard and then passes around to the rear. This feature adds a further touch of dynamism to the
side profile and gives character to the design of the tailgate of the 5008.
The stylish design of the rear lights and their light-guide technology, give the car its visual signature. The design
of the tailgate hints at easy access to the boot.
A LUXURIOUS INTERIOR DESIGNED FOR DRIVING PLEASURE
The driver’s seat of the 5008 is undeniably original thanks to its raised driving which gives the driver excellent
visibility and a real feeling of safety. The designers of the car have succeeded in enhancing the ergonomics of the
driving position, thanks firstly to the quality of the seats, and secondly to the steep vertical angle of inclination of
the steering wheel. The driving position therefore provides the driver with good control and comfort, while at the same
time retaining a raised position and the sense of dominating the road.
Equipped with a number of avant-garde technologies and featuring high-quality, luxurious materials, the design of the
driver’s seat supports the theme of innovative and driving pleasure present in every detail of the 5008. The driving
position puts all the controls within easy reach, and the inclined front of the fascia panel is designed to be in harmony
with that of the dynamic exterior profile, providing an impressive feeling of overall space.
The area of the wide front windscreen is increased even further by the large panoramic glass roof, one of the largest
in the Peugeot range.
A VERY SPACIOUS INTERIOR
Space is certainly no understatement when it comes to describing the interior of the 5008. Leg room is just as
generous, as is headroom, which means that tall passengers can be accommodated without difficulty.
For passengers wishing to optimise their seating position, the three seats in the second row are equipped with two
seat back tilting positions and can slide individually over a length of 130 mm.
EXEMPLARY MODULARITY
The modularity of the 5008 is of the highest order within its segment.
The second row comprises three seats of equal width, which can be adjusted lengthwise and feature reclining seat backs
for optimal comfort. They can also be folded individually into the passenger compartment floor to form a flat surface
aligned with the rear loading sill. Bearing in mind that the front passenger seat can also be folded flat into a “shelf
configuration”, it is therefore possible to load long objects as far as the fascia panel. The effective load length in
this configuration (all seats folded away and the front passenger seat folded flat in the shelf position) is 2.76 m. The
“cinema” positioning of the second row outer seats allows easy access to the occupants of the third row seats. In one
easy movement, the seat cushion lifts and the seat back moves forward, freeing up the maximum space for those wishing to
get into the car.
This advanced modularity is also in evidence in the third row, where the two full size seats fold individually into
the rear floor.
A LARGE BOOT VOLUME
The boot of the new-to-Australia Peugeot 5008 is very practical and easy to use thanks to its rectangular shape and
with a capacity ranging from 758 to 823 litres, depending on the position of the third row seats. Capacity increases to
1,247 litres when the rear parcel shelf is removed and the vehicle is loaded to the roof. This can further increase to
2,506 litres when the second row seats are folded away. For families who are always in search of extra space there are
numerous storage compartments throughout. In the front, there are large door pockets, storage under the steering wheel
and a welldesigned ‘ventilated’ centre console that offers 10.5 litres of cooled storage. Within the storage area, there
is a USB connection so that you can charge your electronics and at the same time, keep them out of sight. At the rear,
there are storage areas in the floor as well as the rear door pockets, all of which are very accessible.
COMFORT IN ALL SEATS
All passengers will appreciate the comfort provided by all of the seats. Particular attention has been paid to the
third row occupants to ensure that they can enjoy a level of comfort, safety and space comparable to that of the other
seats. For example, all occupants are protected by the curtain air bag which extends rearwards as far as the third row.
In addition, the vehicle’s low exterior noise levels enable the occupants in the third row to converse easily with the
front passengers without having to raise their voice. Because their seats are not directly in line with those in the
front, the third row occupants also benefit from an unrestricted forward vision, further confirmation that these are
real seats and not additional seats for occasional use only.
Finally, air-conditioning can be accessed and adjusted from all seats via the ventilation units located in the side
pillars providing thermal comfort for all the 5008’s occupants.
THE REAR MULTIMEDIA SYSTEM
The 5008 offers second row passengers a multimedia system which is integrated into the passenger compartment. The
system includes two 7” screens that are seamlessly incorporated into the front head restraints, along with two Bluetooth
wireless headsets.
The multimedia system allows connection of external portable systems such as iPods, video, game consoles and DVD
players. It is also possible to connect two separate video and audio sources simultaneously, allowing rear passengers to
watch the one programme on both screens, or enjoy two different activities.

EXCEPTIONAL DYNAMIC ROAD HOLDING AND SAFETY
The blend of comfort and road holding is one of the key character traits of the Peugeot 5008.
The 5008 also aims to become a new benchmark in the family wagon segment in terms of driving enjoyment thanks to its
exceptional road holding - worthy of a Peugeot passenger car - and its high-performance suspension.
Development of the 5008 suspension reflects all of Peugeot’s know-how in this field. The body rigidity for this type
of vehicle not only enhances the car’s road holding but also reduces vibrations. The front suspension, a pseudo McPherson
type assembly with a drop link anti-roll bar derived from the 308, is a benchmark in terms of driving dynamics. The rear
suspension with its rear torsion beam has been derived also from the Group’s platform two vehicles, but is specially
adapted for this type of vehicle.
The Peugeot engineers have worked hard to give the 5008 safe and efficient road holding comparable to that of a
passenger car, whilst at the same time maintaining the high level of comfort and convenience expected by family wagons.
The comprehensive list of standard safety features in the Peugeot 5008 includes six airbags with curtain airbags that
inflate to the 3rd row, collapsible steering wheel, pre-tensioning front seat belts and ESP.
In the event of an impact, the 5008 has been structurally designed to dissipate impact energy progressively through
three impact absorption structures. It is this triple structural design that provides a protective cell around the
passenger compartment.
ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY ENGINES
The 5008 is available with the choice of either a 1.6-litre turbo petrol or a 2.0-litre turbo diesel engine, both of
which are teamed with a six-speed automatic transmission.
The following engines are available with the new Peugeot 5008:
- 1.6 litre (115 kW / 240 Nm), 7.6 l/100 km, 175 g/km CO2 on combined cycle
- 2.0 litre HDi (120 kW / 340 Nm), 6.3 l/100 km, 164 g/km CO2 on the combined cycle
LATEST-GENERATION EQUIPMENT TO ASSIST THE DRIVER
To facilitate driving on a daily basis, the Peugeot 5008 is also equipped with a range of useful technological
equipment such as front and rear park assist and an innovative system which measures available parking space.
This function, controlled by two sensors located on the sides of the front bumper, provides a visual indication on the
multifunction display of the possibility of parking in a free space and the level of difficulty of the manoeuvre to be
carried out.
The 5008 comes with a high standard equipment level. This include:
- 7-inch retractable colour Satellite Navigation system that is perfectly integrated into the dash
- Rear multimedia system with two 7-inch screens
- Rear camera with parking sensors
- Electronic park brake with hill start assist
- Dual zone climate control air conditioning with rear vents
- 17” alloy wheels
- A torch positioned in side trim of the boot
- Retractable blinds on rows 2 and 3
There is one equipment grade with leather interior a $3,000* optional extra.
