Peugeot Philippines continues its aggressive strategy towards increasing and solidifying its presence in the C-SUV segment with the launch of the
new Peugeot 3008 SUV Active. Taking on the immense success of the
3008 SUV GT Line, this new variant comes at a
price point that is half-a-million (PHP 500,000) less than its GT Line sibling.
"Peugeot is proud to unveil the first stage in its long-term goal of bringing its products to a wider and truly global audience,"
Peugeot Philippines President Glen Dasig said. "To achieve this, we are making our vehicles more accessible to the market while still providing the same driving experience and comfort found in our current range."
Similar to the GT Line variant, the Peugeot 3008 SUV Active Diesel possesses a unique and distinctive style. Its
dynamic silhouette highlights an
athletic and aggressive stance, creating one uninterrupted flow from the concave radiator grille with edged trims and chromed facets to the gloss black rear panel incorporating
Peugeot's signature claw effect LED lighting. The
slim halogen headlights complete the look by providing the vehicle a
feline-like appearance.
Inside, the Peugeot 3008 SUV Active features a
modern and sophisticated cabin. Peugeot's revolutionaryb
i-Cockpit provides the driver the utmost in comfort and accessibility with an elevated driving position, compact steering wheel, touchscreen controls, and a
futuristic all-digital dashboard.
At the heart of the Peugeot 3008 SUV Active is a
2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine also found in the GT Line variant. With an output of
150 hp and 370 Nm of torque, the turbocharging technology found in the Peugeot 3008 SUV Active provides
more power and consumes less fuel than other non-turbocharged vehicles with a similar displacement.
"No compromises have been taken in making the Peugeot 3008 SUV Active more attainable," Dasig said. "This is proof that Peugeot has taken serious interest in expanding its reach in the Philippines by providing products that are priced very competitively against its rivals."
The Peugeot 3008 SUV Active Diesel is
now available in select Peugeot dealerships nationwide with a
price of PHP2.39 million and comes in three exterior colors:
Bianca White, Nera Black, and Artense Gray. For more information, or to schedule an appointment for a test drive, interested customers can contact
