A review of the Peugeot 3008 crossover SUV has been posted over at PaulTan. 'The 3008 is yet another model spawned from PSA's Platform 2 that also underpins among others, the 308 family, the RCZ, 5008 MPV and the Citroen C4 range. The double zero in the name represents an extension of the classic Peugeot range, a new type of vehicle beyond the traditional supermini, C-segment hatchback and D-segment saloon types. Upon first glance, the 3008 appears compact and less chunky than a CR-V. It's actually 200 mm shorter than the Honda and lower too, but the Peugeot's 2,613 mm wheelbase is just a fraction short of the CR-V's 2,620 mm. The 3008's footprint actually sits in the middle of the 308 hatchback and the seven-seater 308 SW. Think of it as a higher riding 308 with more space and a bigger boot and you're not far off.'
