First generation (A94; 2013)

Introduced in 2013, the initial generation of the Peugeot 2008 (designated "A94") utilizes the PSA PF1 architecture, which it shares with the Peugeot 208. This common platform allows for economical parts sharing across models. A mid-cycle update was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2016.

Manufactured across several countries including France, Brazil, China, Iran, and Malaysia, this version represented the inaugural outcome of the Peugeot-IKCO collaboration known as IKAP. Its engine lineup comprises multiple petrol and diesel variants, prominently featuring a 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-four engine that produces and torque. Transmission options include five- or six-speed manuals and, starting in 2017 for the 1.2 turbo petrol model, a six-speed automatic gearbox.

Positioned as a subcompact crossover SUV, the vehicle is aimed at customers seeking a smaller SUV beneath the Peugeot 3008. It succeeded the Peugeot 207 SW as Peugeot’s B-segment offering, notably without offering a station wagon variant.

Select petrol and diesel versions come equipped with the Grip Control system paired with all-season Goodyear M+S tires, which enhances traction capabilities and broadens its suitability across diverse driving conditions.

Facelift

The refreshed version of the Peugeot 2008 was introduced in February 2016. In Brazil, an updated model appeared in 2019, with production having commenced in Porto Real from March 2015 to cater to Mercosur markets. By June 2022, a new two-tone color option was added for the 2023 model year. Brazilian manufacturing ceased in November 2023, transitioning production to Argentina where the second-generation model is now assembled.

Second generation (P24; 2019)

Peugeot revealed the second-generation 2008 on June 19, 2019. Built upon the PSA Common Modular Platform (CMP), this model shares its foundation with vehicles such as the Peugeot 208 II, DS 3 Crossback, and Opel Corsa F. The CMP architecture accommodates petrol, diesel, and electric powertrains, supporting Peugeot’s goal to broaden its SUV range while advancing electrification efforts.

ICE versions

At launch, five internal combustion engine (ICE) configurations were available:

Petrol

• 1.2 L PureTech 100 S&S paired with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission
• 1.2 L PureTech 130 S&S available with six-speed manual, six-speed automatic, or eight-speed automatic gearboxes
• 1.2 L PureTech 155 S&S featuring an eight-speed automatic transmission exclusive to the GT trim

Diesel

• 1.5 L BlueHDi 100 S&S mated to a six-speed manual gearbox
• 1.5 L BlueHDi 130 S&S equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission

Electric version

The e-2008 electric variant is powered by a motor coupled with a 54 kWh battery pack that provides an extended driving range of up to 406 km following the 2023 facelift. Earlier models were fitted with a motor paired to a battery offering a usable capacity of 46.2 kWh (50 kWh total), delivering up to a 310 km WLTP range.

Fast charging capability supports up to 100 kW where infrastructure permits. The e-2008 was launched in Europe in 2020 and had its preview at the Manila International Auto Show in the Philippines.

Facelift

Presented on May 4, 2023, the refreshed edition features revised exterior design elements alongside an upgraded battery enhancing driving range.

Notable updates include redesigned front headlamp units, a new front apron and grille incorporating body-colored elements (with black accents on base trims), as well as redesigned rear LED taillights. The front apron introduces three vertical light bars serving as the updated lighting signature and daytime running lights (DRLs). Additionally, new paint options and Peugeot’s updated brand identity were incorporated.

The enhanced e-2008 benefits from a larger capacity battery of 54 kWh combined with a new motor configuration, increasing its range from the previous figure of approximately 345 km to around 406 km.
