Enhanced Peugeot 3008 and 5008 MPVs in Ireland for 2016

Active level two models now boast Peugeot’s stylish ‘cielo’ panoramic roof and climate control as standard, whilst Allure level three models gain satellite navigation.

The Peugeot 5008 MPV Active Family version now comes with full leather upholstery for easier maintenance to suit family needs. New petrol and diesel Euro 6 engines have also been introduced for 2016.

Peugeot is a European leader in highly efficient, low CO2, low consumption engine technology, today marketing 25 best-in-class engines across its range.

The Peugeot 3008 crossover, a former Irish Car of the Year winner, is the perfect choice for customers looking for excellent performance and a higher driving position. It comes as standard with a unique split tailgate and 3-position boot. Optional grip control technology (RRSP from €300), offers incredible traction even in snow and ice.

The seven-seater Peugeot 5008 is a stylish and flexible compact MPV. The popular Active Family model is equipped with a Peugeot Connect video pack with video screens set into headrests, complete with two Bluetooth headsets, to help keep little people occupied on long journeys.

Engines on offer across both models now include Peugeot’s revolutionary 1.2 130bhp PureTech petrol engine with six-speed gearbox, an International Engine of the Year 2015 category winner, with CO2 emissions from 115g on the 3008 and from 129g on 5008, qualifying for €200 and €290 annual road tax, respectively. With reduced consumption / CO2 (-18%) compared to a traditional four-cylinder unit, over 200,000 units of this celebrated three-cylinder petrol unit have now been produced in Europe, such has been demand in 2015.

The new Euro 6 1.6 120bhp BlueHDi diesel engine with six-speed manual gearbox has been introduced, offering more power yet less consumption than its predecessor and qualifying for €190 annual road tax in the case of the 3008 (108g Co2), €200 in the case of 5008 (113g Co2). A six-speed fully automatic version of the same 1.6 120bhp BlueHDi engine emits just 108g and 112g CO2, respectively, remaining in the same road tax bands.

A new performance-driven 2.0 150bhp BlueHDi diesel engine, with emissions as low as 112g CO2 (€200 annual road tax) is now also available on the 5008 for 2016.

Both 3008 and 5008 are covered by a five-year Peugeot manufacturer warranty and customers can now avail of up to €4,500 scrappage allowance or a €750 Peugeot customer reward, plus finance from as low as 2.9% on orders before December 31 during Peugeot Sensation Days.
