Reviewer's opinion

The new, second-generation Peugeot 2008 SUV is a far cry from the 2008 that we first saw in 2014 and takes the compact crossover segment to blazing new heights. Packed with innovative technology and a level of luxury unseen at the price point, the 2008 is set to do great things.
