THE 2008 has greatest success stories of recent years. Since it was released in 2019, over 700,000 have been produced, and in 2021 it was the best-selling small SUV in Europe.
Peugeot isn't simply settling on a job well done, however, because four years into its life, the 2008 has received an update - and the most significant changes come to the all-electric E-2008 we're driving here.
The full line-up has been given a new look, with the biggest overhaul at the front. There's a new grille design that gets vertical inserts, while extra trim on its outer edges increases the impression of width and blends more neatly with the lights. These also feature a new 'triple claw' signature, which is repeated in the tail-lights.
One of our biggest criticisms of the E-2008 has been its in-car tech, but the revised model gets an all-new infotainment system. The 10-inch screen features a new, cleaner menu structure with customisable widgets to prioritise shortcuts for frequently used features. It looks even sharper than before, but more importantly, it's more responsive and easier to figure out. It still lacks physical climate controls, though, and the temperature settings aren't a permanent fixture on the screen either. Apart from some new trim, the rest of the cabin is largely unchanged, as is the roomy 434-litre boot.
