Ah, what have we here? The Peugeot 2008, which made its local public debut at KLIMS13 last month, is supposed to officially go on sale here in January, but it seems that details and pricing are already ready for the urban crossover.
A visit to the Peugeot Malaysia website reveals all – the 2008 will be priced at RM119,888 on-the-road with insurance in its solitary 1.6 VTi form, and the brochure shows what kit it’ll have. The final pricing doesn’t veer far from that suggested by an ad on oto.my.
As mentioned previously, the equipment list includes Smart Park Assist, a panoramic roof with mood lighting and an electric sunblind, a seven-inch colour touchscreen with USB and Bluetooth connectivity, auto dual-zone air-conditioning, a Smart One-Touch Foldable rear seat and a six-speaker Arkamys 3D sound system.
The 2008 also features auto headlights and auto wipers, a head-up instrument panel with LCD colour display, cornering assist fog lamps, an aviation-style handbrake lever and semi-bucket Oxford leather/fabric combination seats, while safety equipment includes six airbags, ESP with ASR, Isofix anchorage points as well as DSC.
The B-segment crossover sits on 16-inch two-tone alloys wrapped with 195/60 rubbers. Its normally-aspirated 1.6 litre VTi mill offers 122 PS at 6,000 rpm and 160 Nm at 4,250 rpm, and is paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Performance specs include a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 11.2 seconds and a 190 km/h top speed.
Some other relevant numbers – the boot offers 360 litres of space, expanding to 1,194 with the rear seats folded flat. Four exterior colours are available for the 2008 in Malaysia – Digital White, Artense Grey, Dakota Brown and Virtual Blue.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments on the Peugeot 2008 primarily focus on its price of RM120k, which many consider steep for a B-segment SUV with a 1.6L engine and a 4-speed gearbox. Several feel the specifications are underwhelming and criticize the outdated transmission, expecting more advanced gear options like a turbo or CVT. Resale value and comparison with alternative vehicles such as the Honda CRV, Subaru XV, or Well-equipped Ford EcoSport are common topics, with opinions favoring brands perceived as more reliable and offering better RVs. Some comments address the car's target demographic, suggesting it's more suitable for women or urban buyers wanting a stylish, high-riding vehicle. Thoughts about potential discounts and market performance are also expressed, with overall skepticism about the value proposition at this price point.
