2025 Peugeot 3008 price and specs: Mild-hybrid power for higher price

The new 2025 Peugeot 3008 mid-size SUV will go all-in on mild-hybrid technology – axing pure petrol and plug-in hybrid power – when it arrives in Australia early next year.

Two variants of Peugeot's new coupe-styled 3008 SUV – Allure Hybrid and GT Premium Hybrid – are available to order now, ahead of a mid-grade GT Hybrid at an unspecified later date.

Prices have risen by up to $2915, and now start from $52,990 plus on-road costs – or about $56,000 to $59,500 drive-away, depending on the state of registration.

An electric E-3008 version was previously earmarked for local showrooms in the second half of this year, but it has been delayed to sometime in 2025 – at the earliest – in a broad rework of Peugeot's electric-car plans.

All variants use a new 1.2-litre turbo-petrol three-cylinder mild-hybrid engine with claimed fuel consumption of 4.9L/100km, down from 5.6 to 7.3L/100km in the current 1.6-litre turbo four-cylinder 3008.

But the new engine develops 100kW/230Nm – compared to 121kW/240Nm or 133kW/250Nm from various tunes of the four-cylinder.

Unlike most mild-hybrid vehicles, the technology in the 3008 can drive the wheels on electric power alone at low speeds, in addition to the typical functions of providing assistance to the engine under acceleration.

Front-wheel drive is the only choice, with a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that incorporates the electric motor.

Standard equipment in the new base Allure Hybrid includes 19-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, a 21-inch curved screen which incorporates the instrument and infotainment displays, fabric seats, and dual-zone climate control.

The flagship GT Premium Hybrid includes luxuries such as nappa leather trim, heated and ventilated front seats, and a sunroof.

A middle-of-the-range GT Hybrid will become available sometime after the rest of the range arrives early next year – with a price yet to be confirmed – offering features such as adaptive LED headlights and a Focal premium stereo.

Peugeot says it will announce a more comprehensive list of standard features closer to the 2025 Peugeot 3008 SUV's Australian arrival in the first quarter of 2025 (January to March).
