Peugeot e-3008 Long Term Review

Live with a car for a bit and you appreciate the stuff which you don't notice on a shorter loan. Like the storage, which in the E3008 is pretty great, with decent door bins, good centre console storage, couple of cup holders, a slightly small but usable glove box that lights up when you open, handy, and a little pocket for your sunglasses overhead which always makes me forget where my sunnies are, but I’ll get used to that. 

The ‘floating’ curved screen is pretty brilliant too. It's functional, its fast, it’s easy (once you learn where everything is). Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, are lovely and work well too. 

Shortcut buttons via the i-toggles and the separate buttons on the centre console make things really quick and easy to chop and change between menus. I’m a big fan of knobs and buttons, you won’t get any knobs here (oooh matron) but buttons, yes. Not as many as you’d hope maybe, but the climate controls are within the screen and you can get in and out of that with no stress so it hasn’t bugged me at all. 

I’d say the one thing that’s bugged me so far is the heated seat controls. Press climate on the i-toggle, click ‘seats and steering’, switch them on, fine. BUT they get quite hot after a while, proper arse burning stuff, so if you want to turn down the levels you have to tap the teeeeeny tiny heated seat button on the screen at the top to access that menu which is quite tricky to do while driving. So either - drive safely and burn your arse, or wait till you come to a stop to cool those cheeks down.
