The Chief Financial Officer of Stellantis, Natalie Knight, recently announced that the next-generation Peugeot 5008 will be launched in August next year and will have a fully electric version.
We have been aware of the next-generation 5008 since the beginning of this year when Peugeot confirmed the development of an electric version. In August, spy photographers captured a prototype of the new 5008 in the form of a combustion engine version. In September, we had the opportunity to see a prototype of the electric car model.
Prototype of the new generation Peugeot 5008
Similar to the smaller 3008 model, the new generation 5008 will be developed on the Stellantis STLA Medium platform, which supports the use of electric motors and enables the car to travel up to 700 km.
According to Natalie Knight, the launch event for the 5008 model in 2024 marks an important electric car debut in Europe for the Stellantis group.
The new Peugeot 5008 is expected to follow a design philosophy similar to the latest 3008, although it will have the appearance of a more traditional SUV rather than a coupe SUV. We anticipate that the front of the 5008 will feature LED headlights and daytime running lights, similar to the 3008, and it may have a more intricate grille design.
Current generation Peugeot 5008
Details regarding the powertrain have not been confirmed yet, but we do know that the new 5008 will be available as a hybrid and an electric car. The hybrid version will combine the 1.2L PureTech 48-volt petrol engine that Peugeot introduced earlier this year on the 3008 and 5008 models. This new engine is equipped with turbocharging technology and an additional electric motor with 28 horsepower and 55 Nm of torque, resulting in a combined output of 134 horsepower and 230 Nm of torque.
The electric versions could utilize a similar drivetrain as the E-3008, with a battery pack capacity ranging from 73 kWh to 98 kWh and power output ranging from 207 to 316 horsepower.
