There is a huge difference between the older 5008 and new 2019 Peugeot 5008. Basically, Peugeot ditched everything and opted for a new approach and the result is perfect exterior design. The hood looks prominent with some sharp-edged and the front grille is finished in chrome. The corner air intakes are massive and are also trimmed in chrome. Both headlights and fog lights are looking elegant and down below an air dam is wider than the radiator grille.

To the side, we can see a perfect profile with beautiful lines and smooth surface is getting sharper from the front to the rear. The rear end looks perfect and the taillights are futuristic. Reverse lights sit on the bottom of the rear end.

The futuristic design carries on to the interior with perfect designs and shapes. A 12.3-inch instrument cluster looks stunning and the display shows information such as speed and navigation. The gauges are digital and are vertical while the dashboard hosts another 8-inch touchscreen display with the very simple interface.

The door panels are in leather and overall, the cabin offers plenty of soft-touch materials.
