Hybrid performance

At the heart of the 3008 Hybrid is a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder turbo petrol engine paired with Peugeot's 48V Hybrid system.

The combined power output of 100kW and 230Nm torque ensures smooth acceleration, complemented by a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The model achieves a fuel economy of 5.4L/100 km on the WLTP cycle and emits only 122g/km of CO2, making it one of the more efficient options in its segment.

With a top speed of 201km/h and a 0 to 100 km/h time of 10.2 seconds, the 3008 Hybrid delivers performance suitable for both urban and rural New Zealand roads. Its regenerative braking further enhances efficiency by charging the battery during deceleration.

Cutting-edge design and features

Peugeot's design pedigree shines in the 3008 Hybrid, which recently earned the prestigious Red Dot Award for Product Design. Its fastback silhouette, Pixel LED headlights and signature three-claw tail lights establish a commanding road presence.

New Zealanders can also choose from vibrant colours like Obsession Blue, adding a fresh aesthetic to local streets.

Inside, the 21-inch panoramic i-Cockpit takes centre stage. This frameless display integrates a digital instrument panel with a high-definition touchscreen, providing intuitive access to vital functions. Drivers can personalise their experience with eight ambient lighting options and fully configurable virtual toggles.

The 3008 Hybrid also offers a spacious boot with 588L of storage, expandable to 1663L with the rear seats folded. Safety features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and a 360-degree HD camera system make it an excellent choice for family adventures or urban commutes.
