Nonsence. C5 cost much more than 407!! And the Grand Picasso that is offered at te chepaer price now is not the on with the 2.0 litre engne. Even the Xantia costs more than the 406 many years back.. Not forgetting the C2, C3and C4!!!!!!!

I doubt we will get those equipment shown in the pictures. Most probably, due to our tax structure, Msian specs will be watered down. But definitely, will be getting at least 6 airbags including curtain bags. This is good as children/rear passengers will be better protected.

KUDOS to NAZA for at least not skimming on safety.

sure bashers can bash this 5008 is a bread van, bus van that carries school children, why not? even cannot go climb to genting , always follows big lorries, cannot take over cars, even kancils, moves like snails..etc
the thing is all those specs like torque and hp will be left on papers, won’t practically be felt and sometimes it is useless because all the vehicles surely move, it for example an s class merc and a persona move to a place, the merc moves at 160km/h and the persona at 130km/h, the merc arrives 20 seconds earlier , the merc big engine with huge hp and torque is not worth it at all

p 3008 tiru exora ka? P3008 ni platform base on C4 grand picasso (peugeot ngan citroen ni under satu umbrella peugeot-citroen-PSA), model ni dah lama keluar dah, lama sebelum exora keluar, kalu exora tiru P3008 / C4 grand picasso tu logik gak kwang kwang kwang

I think this is a new entry, just like 3008. 307SW is replaced by 308SW. I dont think this model replace 807 as well, because 807 is a different story, the plant not wholly owned by peugeot.

Nice looking Conti …. Love it.

For practicality purpose (after sales quality of service, parts availability, cheaper parts, long term use, technical know how), I would go for Nissan Serena. I know, the looks may not be appealing….

Cheers.

the 3rd row make me remember of Grand picasso C4. very thin sit , foldable( i guess).
planned to buy picasso early this year but was told that only 1 unit was slod in JB through out the year. Continental car particularly peugeot + citroen are very good technically but may need time to change our mindset which still admire the Japanese

yes we cant compare proton with peugeot. proton is copycat and peugeot is original car maker. Like comparing mike tyson (usa) with mike tyson(hulu selangor). what a joke.

Errmmmm intrested to comment to those who keep on thinking the 1.6 engine that produce by peugeot is same like 1.6 in Proton. to tell u the truth is not the same….its diffrent…it can produce more power than Proton engine.

I can't wait for 5008 to 'port' here. Will likely to own it.

Don't care about the 'power' of it…as long there's comfort for my family.

It's going to be my third ride anyway.

japanese mpv cannot match european ones, especially from ford, citroen and peugeot. Jap mpv gaya kosong saja…european ones miles ahead in terms of engineering, comfort, safety, design and comfort

Is this 307SW replacement? Or something compareble?

By: mr_3m

mr_3m — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 22:48:54 +0000

so many junk talk comparing this to exora etc… it's not fair at all to compare this car to exora when you have 'silly' duties & taxes on CBU or imported cars, even CKD cars also suffer…

if exora can compete on an 'equal' ground i.e. at same rate of taxes/duties applies, this 5008 or any other MPV would 'kill' off the Exora for good, 1.6liter or not… doesn't matter, who in the right mind would only come up with ONE CHOICE of engine at launch? Even if they put 1.6 small engine in the 5008 or whatever, but at least the manufacturer is decent enough to offer the Turbo version or the bigger engine option at launch… unlike stupid Proton, just make the people suffer & suffer & suffer at their expense, nak bagi choice pun lembap!!!

Sebab tu lah orang kata 'underpowered'….. sbb ada satu choice saja… kalau bg choice engine besar sikit, 1.6 tu mungkin tak laku pun… Proton bashing or not, who cares… talk about cars biarlah objective sikit… Proton supporters/defenders always too sentimental & emotional lah… at the end of the day, i foresee in 10-20yrs Proton jadi macam SAAB jer (too bad)… or MG Rover… just another car maker that will not survive if they continue to operate like today & the last 5 years…

hehehe… he not around thou..

but seriously, 180hp for the 3008 (the smallish crossover)? wow .. they want to enter the 3008 into the IRC or what? hahaha..

By: Paul Tan

Paul Tan — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 10:13:04 +0000

I dunno, derick told me got 180hp with the 3008

By: intermilan

intermilan — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 09:30:20 +0000

huh.. 180hp engine? they have it with the Prince?

i guess it make sense to assume that (ur above statement). perhaps the 2nd gen of the 175hp(1st gen).

boost it a little and there you have it. improvement. in 2 years time they boost it to 187hp.. and generate 're-new' interest towards their line-ups / new offerings. i'm guessing marketing is now dictating very much everything.

Its akin to the fate that befall the Estate.

It is quite disappointing to see PSA is 'playing' this power improvement game in this small percentage improvement (less than 5%). it does help create the mediore image that seem to very eager to struck and stay with them.

and where is the ~230hp-ish Prince engine in a true sport Peugeot (beside the upcoming 308 RCZ – coz that don't fit the bill). They have more than enuff know-how to produce iconic hothatch or sport sedan but choose to produce passable and luke warm stuff for far too long. its dang long overdue to banish the ghost of the 205gti. with a proper over-the-top replacement. over engineered it. even if just for the sake of it. even if they not gonna make money out of it.

there you have it.

alas, this compact MPV i.e. the 5008 (therefore not a direct 807 replacement) will obviously generate sales but since they are very late in joining this segment with a tall architecture offering , i guess sales will not going to be strong. but hopefully better than the sorry 4007.

By: Paul Tan

Paul Tan — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 16:50:58 +0000

yeah it should be some kind of marketing reason. anyway could it be that 156hp and 180hp will replace 150hp and 175hp for peugeot?

By: intermilan

intermilan — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 16:34:02 +0000

PT,

i agree with you that its a 1.6L engine. as far as i know the Prince engine that was co-developed with BMW is only available in 1.6L form. And also agree that 'normally', a N/A 1.6 "couldn't" possibly produce 156bhp, especially if its from factory. Not an engine for the masses..

VTi does stand for variable valve timing (for the Prince engine) but i suspect that this is a turbo Prince engine (that was uprated from the turbo 150hp option), hence their press kit should highlight it with a THP acronym instead of VTi (as VTi is normally being use to describe a N/A Price engine).

Maybe.. just maybe… they wish not to associate the word 'turbo' with a MPV?
