Peugeot 5008: Mk1 vs P87 Facelift

Verdict

At RM155,582, the Peugeot 5008 Mk1 is RM30,706 cheaper and still gives Malaysian families seven seats, a 60-litre tank and 656 litres of boot space. The Peugeot 5008 P87 Facelift costs more, but its 165 hp output cuts the 0-100 km/h time from 10.8 to 8.9 seconds while rated consumption improves from 7.9 to 7.0 L/100 km. It is also 140 mm longer with a 952-litre boot, plus blind-spot monitoring, a reverse camera and hands-free powered tailgate. The facelift is the more complete car; the Mk1 makes sense on budget.

Mk1

Pick the Peugeot 5008 Mk1 if RM30,706 saved, a larger 60-litre fuel tank and rear window sun shades matter more than newer driver-assistance and convenience kit.

P87 Facelift

Pick the Peugeot 5008 P87 Facelift if you want the quicker 165 hp powertrain, 952-litre boot and substantially stronger parking and safety equipment.
