The 2013 Peugeot 3008 was the facelift of a 3-in-1 car that was built to fill the needs of families transportation, either if it was a daily commute or a long trip around Europe.
Before the world financial crisis in 2008-2010, nobody knew where the market will go. If it will go to the hatchbacks, SUVs, or minivans. So, Peugeot built a car that was all three of them: the 2009 Peugeot 3008.
In 2013, the world was on the recovery from financial problems and the French manufacturer decided to do a facelift for its 3008 model. By that time, it was clear that the market will go for SUVs but the Peugeot wasn’t ready for that. Instead of building a completely new vehicle, the marketing department decided to change the look of its already built 3008. The car was built on the EMP2 platform, which was used for many vehicles including the hatchback 308. The new styling showed new headlights, new bumpers, and new LED taillights.
The interior was enhanced. Bluetooth connectivity was added as standard across the range and, as an option, a head-up display in front of the driver. For the top trim version, a rear back-up camera was installed. Due to a higher seating position for all the passengers, the leg and headroom were generous for all seats.
Since the market direction was toward the SUV and crossover segment, Peugeot installed an intelligent front differential that helped to find the grip when the car was in off-road mode. The 3008 was only front-wheel drive so the biggest off-road challenge it could tackle was some unpaved roads.

When it comes to MPVs, the French were at the forefront of the segment. Their expertise was used in the Peugeot 5008 that was launched back in 2008. In 2013 the big, seven-seat vehicle has received a facelift.
The 5008 was built on the EMP2 platform, the same one that was used for the Peugeot 308 or its siblings from the Citroen brand. For the mid-life refresh, the engines were made cleaner since the new, Euro 5b pollution norms were enforced in Europe since January 2013.
The key modifications to the 2013 models were noticed on the outside where a new grille and headlights with LED DRL were installed. But inside there were more important changes.
For the driver there was a head-up display available, with a small transparent screen in front of the driver seat on which various data were displayed, the most important being the speed. Since the vehicle was over 5.5-meter long (217.7”), the manufacturer installed intelligent parking sensors front and rear, which were able to measure a parking spot and show on the infotainment screen if there was enough room for parking.
From the seven seats, the last row was suitable for passengers shorter than the average European height. The standard transmission was with 5 or six gears, depending on the engine. A 6-speed automatic (robotized, single-clutch) was available as an option for selected engine versions.
