Peugeot 5008 GT Premium Hybrid driven for 2026

Recently we have had the Peugeot 5008 GT Premium Hybrid as a long term new mum car. Brianna has driven it mostly and you can listen to her thoughts in her segments.

However, I managed to steal it away from her for a few days. Simply because I love driving it.

Reason why im a big fan include the wagon/SUV styling. Peugeot builds beautiful cars and the 5008 manages to make a wagon look stylish.

I live the front LED headlight and DRL design. It stands out especially at night.

This lighting design carries through to the rear end and manages to bring elegance to a boxy rear end.

Inside the 5008 GT excels. Its comfort and luxury all the way. Leather seats have heating and ventilation. Don’t forget the massage function that allows multi choice and while im driving the massage function is working.
Im also a big fan of the low set steering wheel and Peugeot i-cockpit driver instrument design. It fits my driving style perfectly.

The small flat bottom and top steering wheel has a responsive feel. Its no sports SUV but driver engagement is excellent. The 1.2L three cylinder hybrid petrol engine sounds light in. However, in real world driving conditions it’s never found wanting. Quite the opposite its feels zippy and scoots along, especially on the motorways.

Economy is outstanding as well.

Overall, the Peugeot 5008 GT Premium Hybrid provides a quality alternative to the luxury European SUVs and brings French flair and style. It’s for people that want something just a little bit different.
