Mid-range diesel gives the Peugeot 2008, the firm's newest crossover, appeal but poor design in some areas spoils the ride
The mid-range diesel option to accompany Peugeot’s new 2008 crossover at its launch. Alongside the high-power 115bhp 1.6 e-HDi we’ve already tested and the 68bhp 1.4 HDi at the bottom of the range, this 92bhp diesel is tipped to be the biggest seller.We’re testing the Allure spec model, which gets Peugeot’s new grip control system as standard. The system re-works the car’s own ESP and traction control settings to suit a given terrain setting, and works in conjunction with all-weather hybrid tyres fitted to the car. At £17,145 - rising to £17,940 once options like metallic paint and parking assist are added - the 92bhp option is still over £1000 cheaper than the higher-spec 115bhp engine.
