As has become the style of late, the pricing of the Peugeot 5008 MPV, which was launched by Nasim at the 2010 Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show, is under the estimated pre-launch price as written earlier.

The seven-seater rolls in at RM159,888, and is certainly well equipped for the money. It’s powered by a THP 156 Prince 1.6 litre twin scroll turbo engine with direct injection, offering 156 hp and 240 Nm of torque, mated to a six-speed auto gearbox with Tiptronic.
Features include an 18 sq ft panoramic glass roof, leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels, a six-speaker audio system with USB/Bluetooth connectivity as well as automatic dual-zone air-conditioning with adjustable second-row air-diffusion.

Second row occupants will never be bored again on long trips, what with two seven-inch LCD screens located in the front seat head restraints. The system comes with two Bluetooth wireless headsets and a connection console that can be paired to a DVD player or video-gaming console. Each display is independent, meaning one passenger can, for example, watch a movie while the other plays a video game.

Elsewhere, there’s a head-up display unit, which displays essential driving information such as speed, cruise control/speed limiter and Distance Alert. The latter assists the driver in ensuring the 5008 is within a safe distance from the vehicle ahead – a radar located behind the lower front bumper panel measures the time in seconds (from 0.9 seconds to 2.5 seconds) between the vehicle in front and then transmits this data to the HUD, and alerts the driver if the 5008 gets too close to the vehicle in front.

The vehicle also comes with an Available Space Measurement aid – two sensors on the sides of the front bumper provide a visual indication of the possibility of parking in a free space on the display.
As for safety, the five-star NCAP rated 5008 comes with six airbags, Hill Start Assist, ESP, ABS, EBD, EBA, Anti-Skid Regulation, Dynamic Stability Control and anti-whiplash front seat headrests.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
great!! I just hope no need to waiting 4-6 months, or even 1 yr for the delivery.
what a waste… go and get SUV with7 seats e.g santa fe, everest. Only queen controlled guy drive mini van/mpv.
Bro, u re rite, I m very keen to buy 5008 but hav check wit naza n lots of dealer they hav stop taking order, no idea when dis car will b available again. Any idea whr to get dis car asap?
RM160K….. a little bit more than the expected selling price. That’s couple hundreds ringgit extra more than the initially planned monthly installment.
The goodies are attractive. In fact pretty luxurious for a mid side MPV, making 5008 one of the most sort-after premium MPV. Almost zero additional accessories needed to perfect this family ride. For this price, Stream and Wish is no fight at all. If space is not a major concern (for small family with young children), prospective customer should buy this instead of the 2-3YO recon Estima or well-equipped but aged Grandis.
But wait, I shall check out 5008’s cousin Citroen Grand C4 first and find out if it is worth while paying RM22K extra.
Yeah.. should check out the Citroen sibling too.
But my guess you’ll find out why the 5008 is more expensive.
For info, this imported 5008 is the highest specification 5008. the C4 Picasso is a few notch down.
By the way, the price difference (OTR with insurance) is not RM22K but around RM18K as the C4 Picasso advertised price (i.e. from 138K) is w/o insurance.
Anyway, both offerings are great in their’s own way!
i’m more worried about after sales service…..previous .record showed they are both crap and expensive…can ask any pug or citroen owner…but i’m more comfortable with pug now bcos they are expanding like mad with more on the road and back by very stable rich brothers……….. and citroen malaysia just change distributer (previous distributer gone /caput) and shrinking their resources and service for cost cutting measures…….mazda5? hmmmm enough sushi car for me……my taste bud longing for european flavor
I owned a Citroen ZX in the 90s and I am sure you would share my frustration about having the car repaired with expansive parts. It was my only frenchy car but I stick to other European makes till today.
I have been shopping the right MPV for my wife and family for sometimes now. For MPV about this size, brand new, up to 170K, I only have Pug 5008 (been waiting since it was launched in Europe) and Grandis (latest version sold in MYS with so many practical goodies) in mind. I have to admit my whole family has phobia with Citroen’s product, but at about RM140K, this close cousin Grand C4 really worth consideration before jumping into a conclusion.
looking into the horizon, i’d choose the 5008 due to Peugeot’s strong backing of Nasim.
as tempting the C4 Picasso price tag, it is sad to the future of Citroen in Malaysia seemed to be going south.
a crazy idea is to have Nasim take over from brooklands in managing the Citroen brand since both Citroen and Peugeot are under the same stable.
NOW, that would be a crazy french invasion! :)
been wiating for this car since my last visit to pug for pug3008..
but malaysia will always love T-wish, H-stream
wow… pricy …. >.<
anyway, nice engine 156 hp and 240 Nm from 1.6 turbo…
so go for Exora turbo? Since Campro Turbo coming soon…. Is Proton 1.6 turbo better than this? as for looks, pug3008 looks better….
why use myvi SE rims??!!
wtf, tat aint myvi se rim..
rim patterns are not really different between some cars/mpv, if you want different ones buy third party ones lah, what so difficult , just prepare the money
another sweet car for euro… cool…
(saliva dripping…)
Peugeot 5008 , Mazda 5 or Santa Fe R ….?
Think of change to MPV . Your comment is most welcome !
You need to see what is your priority in choosing 7-seater.
Play safe: Fortuner/Innova.
Comfort & fun for family: 5008.
Driver car: Sante Fe Diesel.
Space: Ria.
Cost: Exora.
:-)
your suggestions do not make sense. play safe? driver car?!?
what on earth are u talking about
u might as well include nissan vanette as the best in terms of cost and space
jimmy, if you want to play safe, get durex instead!! not the ripped off bloody toyota and honda.
if i based on 3008 built, this car is good enough.. even if the price tag is at 170k-180k, it worth it..
santa fe is SUV :D
mazda 5 is good also.. but at almost same price tag.. u know which one offer better.. this 5008 spec as almost mazda 8 spec
Can’t wait to have a chance to test drive.
been on KLIMS – dissapointed with the third row seats, not enough legroom for adults, exora seems better if you want the third row for adults
higher the price.. the higher the oil price.. are this called supportive in automotive industries?? came on .. wake up malaysian…
come on, what are u talking about man? please speak some sense.
It looks great , equipment list is most impressive , hi-tech powertrain , Its a good buy
Can’t wait fir it to arrive to East Malaysia!
For those thinking of Peugeot cars, please ask owners
of peugeot cars first regarding the after sales service,
warranty and price of parts, how fast these electronics fails
and how much to replace it.
Mazda has good after sales service. Had a Mazda 3 before this.
And good second hand value as the demand is surprisingly good.
Are you a Mazda salesman?
sure he is mazda salesman!!
it’s pretty obvious that these ‘helpful comments’ surface after a barrage of launches by peugeot so far.
frankly speaking after sales, warranty and price of parts – it’s tied to the brand. as an peugeot owner, i do view that after sales and warranty service levels leaves much to be desired but they’re improving, that’s for sure.
on price of parts, it’s not rocket science.
when you choose a particular brand, OF COURSE it will be higher or lower compared to others – it’s that simple. all you can do as a consumer is do research on your preferred brand, choose/buy and deal with whatever cost associated with the brand.
on electronics failure and the cost involved in replacing, as if madza cars does not have these kind of issues?
aisehman bermaz/salesman, u guys are a great brand….why you guys have to resort to these kind of comments?
Went and saw the Peugeot 5008 in KLIMS. Must say i am impressed with the car, looks good, full of features, the panoramic roof looks really cool, nice cockpit and only RM160k. The price will definitely weighs in favor of the Pug compared to Mazda. But too young to get a MPV. I find the 5008 better looking and more proportionate compared to the 3008. Should be a good buy. Anyway, I’m a Doc, not a salesman, LOL.
very nice. but could do with nicer rims.
whatever it is..the price is too high for 1.6cc
u r still live under the cage..
wake up… now all these european little turbo engine can beat 2.0CC 2.4 CC anytime ….!!
go test drive first. b4 u make ur comment~
Guys, before you two continue with your points, get this right first:
1000cc = 1 little.
There is no cars with 1.6, 2,0 or 2.4cc.. Only 1.6, 2.0 or 2.4 little or 1600, 2000, or 2400cc! Don’t make that kind of silly mistakes again!
Let me correct you, since u wanted to correct others. It should be liter, NOT little.
You’re welcome.
aaaaactually, it’s litre, to us malaysians :-)
heh
if you want to wake people … get your own english right first.
it shoud be litre not little …. so in another word you are wrong too …
Ok lah.. it was silly typo mistake! Sori lo!
God… I just mistakenly added one “l” and yet already attracted few sarcasm…you guys so free just waiting for make mistake and tembak??
U want cheap 1.6 then buy exora with snail pace speed and common/standard accessory.Hi-price comes with superb engine & abundance list of spec & updated accessory.Don’t forget sunroof & dual independence LCD.Apparently current booking will get mpv within 4 to 6 week asap.
it’s not slow like snail, saw several exora dashed like no tomorrow, can go at corners pretty well, torque is more important for any mpv than the top speed
btw looked at this 3rd row seats of this 5008 , clearly for children, but exora are suitable for adults
I agree on your exora dash statement. I’ve came across a few, very fast at the right lane. Some are fully loaded.
I guess these exora owner really wants to proof to us that the thing really can run…
exora turbo goes a lot faster now.
4 studs only 160k?
even aku ni mmg honda hardcore fan,tp aku bg aku peugeot 5008 ni way better than strean,wish,santa fe….mmglh stream t’knl ngan safety ngan design yg cun,wish plak ngan jimat minyak..tp 5008 ada semua dlm satu mpv..safety-design-jmt minyak
paul, i want more internal pictures of this mpv please
I’m very sorry to say this: “This is by far one of the worst KLIMS ever” Besides the achievement of Proton and Perodua. There’s nothing to see. Luckily, Naza’s section save my day. I wonder what happened to the European car makers? KLIMS’10 lacks prestige. Where are the Merc,Audi. BMW and so on. Japanese cars doesn’t amuse me. I’m very sorry for being prejudice. Again, it lacks prestige.
i think i prefer the nagare
What I really like about 5008 is the engine. Other MPVs would normally use 2.0 ltr up to 2.4 ltr engine. 5008 use 1.6 ltr turbo engine churning 156 hp. On the other hand, any news about Exora turbo?
This Pug is not only pleasing to look at but it’s THP 1.6 Turbo engine choice and the features packed in overdrive mode should really give the Japanese segment leaders a real run for their money,their rivals are really catching up big time.There is simply no contest here for what you are getting for your hard earned cash,should you choose to purchase this as your ride of choice.I am definately going to test one to see how good it really is,it’s French so it will be good.Still own a mint 205 GTI 1.9 so this should be a sorted ride.
On the other hand,this was not the best KLIMS and the Conti marques were not represented,which is disappointing to say the least.Even the Koreans have upped the ante with their Tuscon,Sorento,Santa Fe and what not.What the sales projections depicts after 6 months from now for this segment should be a real eye opener.
recently intend to buy this 5008 went to plentong johor bahru showroom. unfortunetly there is no display unit for test drive so the sale person only allow us to peep at those registered ready for deliver car. We are not allow to enter the car since its going for registration. the sale also explained that there is no display unit in the whole country for test drive and there are many people who bought not even look at the actual car. i feel sad like i’m a kiasu person (maybe i’m) who like to examine every inches inside out before placing my booking. My intention is simple, to bring my family(4kids) to feel whats its like sitting in it, how to get in and out from the 3 rd row, how the seat configuration work and most important weather my family members feel comfortable with the car. For those who bought it without even looking at it i respect them they are very brave and rich. As for a poor man like me i have no guts doing the same.since rm 150,000 is not a small sum to me. I can accept that no test drive in those ready stock car, i can always tset the 3008 display unit since the engine and gearbox are same spec. Not to enter the ready stock car ? ( wondering those showroom display unit at H & T brand which we can feel and touch the car interior are ready stock car or display units) At the end i didn’t place any booking and put on hold until there is a display unit (may be after a year or 2 when the car is no more selling like hot cake) At last this comment is not to blame any saleperson in that showroom as for a first time conti car buyer i maybe ignorant. this is to explain what really happen to me and hope there is furrther improvement . sorry if i have offended any party direct or indirectly. thanks
To Peugeot sales:
I m keen to buy dis car but hav check wit Naza they hav freeze taking any new booking n dono when is d new stock coming to Msia, any idea when will it b available again for purchase?
