Detailed analysis of the Peugeot 5008 Premium 1.6 THP 156 · 156 CV (2010-2011)
General description
The 2010 Peugeot 5008 Premium 1.6 THP 156 is a minivan that burst onto the market with the promise of combining family versatility with a touch of dynamism and comfort. With its 156 hp gasoline engine, this vehicle is positioned as an interesting option for those seeking space and agile response on the road, without sacrificing efficiency. Its design, although functional, seeks to differentiate itself from the competition with lines that try to bring elegance to its silhouette.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Peugeot 5008 1.6 THP 156, the feeling is of a balanced car. The 156 hp engine, with its direct injection and turbo, offers an energetic response from low revolutions, which translates into safe overtakes and fluid driving both in the city and on the highway. The 6-speed manual gearbox allows the engine's full potential to be exploited, although the electro-hydraulic steering, while precise, could transmit a little more information to the driver. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and torsion beam with trailing arms at the rear, filters out road irregularities well, providing a comfortable ride for all occupants. However, in tight corners, body roll is noticeable, reminding us that we are driving a family minivan. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.6 seconds and a top speed of 195 km/h are respectable figures for its segment, offering a satisfactory driving experience for everyday use.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2010 Peugeot 5008 is characterized by its functionality and its attempt to bring a more attractive aesthetic to the minivan segment. Its fluid lines and distinctive front end, with a prominent grille and elongated headlights, give it an elegant presence on the road. The side view reveals a silhouette that maximizes interior space, with large glazed surfaces that contribute to the brightness of the cabin. The rear, although more conventional, maintains the aesthetic coherence of the whole. Inside, the design focuses on ergonomics and habitability, with a well-organized dashboard and materials that, without being luxurious, convey a sense of solidity and durability. The comfortable and versatile seats allow multiple configurations to adapt to cargo or passenger needs, highlighting modularity as one of its strong points.
Technology and features
In terms of technology, the 2010 Peugeot 5008 Premium 1.6 THP 156 incorporates solutions that, for its time, were quite advanced. The 1.6 THP engine, developed in collaboration with BMW, is an example of modern engineering, with direct injection, turbo, and intercooler, which optimizes power delivery and efficiency. The speed-sensitive electro-hydraulic power steering improves maneuverability in the city and stability on the highway. In terms of safety, it has ventilated disc brakes at the front and solid discs at the rear, ensuring effective braking. Although it does not have the latest driving aids that we find today, its standard equipment includes essential elements for safety and comfort, such as stability and traction control, and a basic but functional infotainment system. The modularity of the seats and the trunk capacity, which ranges between 579 and 679 liters, demonstrate technology oriented towards family practicality.
Competition
The 2010 Peugeot 5008 Premium 1.6 THP 156 faced tough competition in the compact minivan segment. Its main rivals included models such as the Renault Grand Scénic, the Citroën C4 Grand Picasso, the Volkswagen Touran, and the Ford Grand C-Max. Each of them offered their own virtues, from the extreme modularity of the Citroën to the robustness of the Volkswagen or the dynamism of the Ford. The 5008 sought to differentiate itself with its THP engine, which offered a good balance between performance and consumption, and a design that tried to be more elegant and less 'van-like' than some of its competitors. Its habitability and ride comfort were strong points that allowed it to compete head-to-head with the segment leaders.
Conclusion
The 2010 Peugeot 5008 Premium 1.6 THP 156 is a minivan that, despite its age, remains an interesting option for families looking for a spacious, comfortable vehicle with a capable engine. Its design, although functional, does not renounce elegance, and its interior offers great modularity and habitability. The sensations behind the wheel are pleasant, with good engine response and remarkable ride comfort. While it is not the most dynamic car in its segment, it more than fulfills its family function. Its combined consumption of 7.1 l/100km is reasonable for a vehicle of its characteristics and its DGT 'C' label allows it to circulate without restrictions in most cities. In short, the 5008 is a reliable and versatile travel companion, ideal for those who value space and comfort in their journeys.
