Peugeot 2008
The Peugeot 2008 is a small SUV with a bold look, comprising strong color schemes and a variety of slashes and creases that make rivals such as the Volkswagen T-CROSS LOOK more than a little tedious.
If small SUVs are more rugged versions of small cars, then the Peugeot 2008 is a 208 that’s kitted out for a paint balling trip. It has the same great tech you get in the 208 hatch, but is better prepared for some diving about in the mud with its chunkier tyres and raised driving position. Brilliant. So good, in fact, it won the Best Small SUV category in 2021 Car of the Year Awards.
And the French flair loses no momentum when you get inside. It has two massive infotainment screens and a bold design. Not to mention interior quality that feels up there with the best SUVs in this price range.
Those screens are worthy of special mention, though. The first is a fairly conventional center touchscreen that is used to operate everything from the sat-nav to the heater.
The second screen is more interesting and replaces conventional instruments behind the steering wheel. It has a 3D effect with visible depth and it’s also fully customisable with slick animations when you switch between views. It’s a neat piece of kit no other car this price offers up.
