Peugeot 5008 - Reliability & safety
There’s a good amount of standard safety equipment onboard, with more driver assistance tech available as optional extras
The third-generation Peugeot 5008 hasn’t received a crash safety rating from industry expert Euro NCAP yet, and neither has its sister car, the Peugeot 3008.
Every 5008 features driver attention alert, lane keep assist, traffic and speed sign recognition, an advanced emergency braking system, a reversing camera and rear parking sensors. Higher-spec models benefit from adaptive cruise control with stop and go functionality, front parking sensors and adaptive Pixel LED headlights.
More driver assistance tech is available as optional extras, including long-range blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert and a 360-degree camera system. Peugeot’s ‘Highway Assist 2.0’ system is only available with GT trim, and combines adaptive cruise control, lane

Warranty
The Peugeot 5008 comes with a three-year/60,000-mile warranty as standard, which is the same amount of coverage you get with a Skoda Kodiaq, but doesn’t match the five or seven-year warranties offered by Hyundai and Kia, respectively.
However the Peugeot Allure Care programme gives E-5008 drivers the opportunity to extend the cover for the battery and electric drive system up to a maximum of eight years/100,000 miles (whichever comes first). All they need to do is make sure scheduled maintenance is carried out within the Peugeot-approved network.
Servicing
Peugeot says the 5008 Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid need to be serviced once a year or every 16,000 miles (whichever comes first). Meanwhile the E-5008 needs to be looked at for the first time after one year or 8,000 miles, then scheduled maintenance is only required once every two years or 16,000 miles (again, whichever comes first).
Peugeot offers two levels of service plans, with prices starting from £18.71 per month for the 5008 and E-5008, plus an extended assistance programme that includes roadside assistance, recovery and onward travel.
