2 Answers
The Peugeot 5008 is equipped with 1.6T and 1.8T turbocharged engines. A turbocharged engine refers to an engine fitted with a turbocharger. Taking the 2019 Peugeot 5008 as an example, it is a mid-size SUV with the following dimensions: length 4670mm, width 1855mm, height 1650mm, wheelbase 2840mm, and curb weight 1541kg. The 2019 Peugeot 5008 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is powered by a 1.6T turbocharged engine producing a maximum horsepower of 170PS, maximum power of 125kW, and maximum torque of 250Nm.
As a car technology enthusiast, I have driven many Peugeot 5008 models. Its most commonly used engine is the 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine from the PureTech series, tuned to around 180 horsepower, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, delivering quick and smooth acceleration. The latest model also offers a plug-in hybrid option, with the Hybrid4 system integrating a 1.6-liter gasoline engine and dual front and rear electric motors, providing a total output of 300 horsepower and a pure electric range of about 50 kilometers. This design is very popular in Europe, offering excellent power response, high torque at low RPMs, and no sluggishness in city driving. In terms of fuel consumption, the gasoline version averages 7-8L/100km in urban areas, while the hybrid version is even more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly. For daily maintenance, regular oil changes and turbo inspections are key, but overall reliability is good, making it suitable for those who pursue performance and efficiency.
