Summary
Part of the latest third-generation 5008 range, the Peugeot e-5008 is a large seven-seat electric SUV. The range also includes petrol mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions, which we cover here.
Built on the same foundations as the Vauxhall Grandland Electric, Carwow’s Mat Watson praises the e-5008 for its “ultra-modern interior”, with the caveat that the SUV doesn’t have the best infotainment among its rivals, while the Carbuyer team commends the large Peugeot for its “impressive” battery range.
Vicky Parrott of The Telegraph says that the car’s practical seven-seat interior makes it “perfect for school runs”, while Car’s Curits Moldrich adds that the 5008’s “styling has matured to create something that’s interesting to look at.”
“It’s not an especially exciting car to drive”, concludes Ellis Hyde of Auto Express, “but you’ll quite quickly forgive that” due to the car’s polished interior and comfort, as well as its sub-£50k price tag that undercuts many upmarket seven-seat alternatives.
As of January 2025, the Peugeot e-5008 holds a New Car Expert Rating of A with a score of 72%. Beyond the car’s commendable UK review scores, this overall rating is bolstered by the car’s relatively low running costs.

“The appeal of the Peugeot E-5008 goes way beyond being one of the few electric cars available with seven seats. It balances style and substance very well, offering big space for passengers and their stuff, decent range and a refined, comfortable personality. It’s not an especially exciting car to drive, but you’ll quite quickly forgive that.”

“On paper, the Peugeot e-5008 is a slow, electric SUV simply designed to get people from A to B, but in reality, it’s a well-designed car that’s full of character and space in equal measure. Inside, it gives you something to touch, prod and look at, and outside Peugeot’s styling has matured to create something that’s interesting to look at despite its size.”

“The Peugeot E-5008 is a comfortable, stylish and upmarket electric large SUV with an impressive range between charging stops. It boasts seven seats which makes it all the more appealing for large families.”

“There’s not much to be had in terms of driver engagement, but the long-range model claims a range of up to 415 miles on a single charge, and this literally puts the Peugeot miles ahead of numerous rivals.”

“It’s easy to write the E-5008 off as being too pricey, but look at what it’s offering in context of what else is out there, and it’s clear that this really is a clever and useful car, and certainly one of the most recommendable electric family cars.”

“There’s a lot to like about the Peugeot e-5008. It looks great inside and out, offers a decent range and plenty of space. There are more rounded electric SUVs out there, but they don’t offer the versatility of seven seats.”

“We are tempted by the Peugeot e-5008, but it’s significantly more expensive than the 5008 hybrid at entry level. Given that the hybrid is very economical, it makes an arguably stronger case for itself, especially as it’s more comfortable than the e-5008.”

The Peugeot e-5008 is a relatively affordable car to own and run, according to whole-life cost numbers provided exclusively to The Car Expert by our data partner, Clear Vehicle Data.
While there are other electric cars of this size that can offer a longer real world battery range of 311 miles, the e-5008’s range is still competitive in the large SUV class, and its electrical efficiency (the electric car equivalent of miles per gallon) is higher than average.
While the car’s insurance premiums are in a middling bracket, which is expected for a car of this size, the SUV’s servicing and maintenance costs over the first five years of ownership are excellent. By comparison, our data estimates predict that the e-5008 is around £500 cheaper over five years than the smaller e-3008 SUV.
