A few weeks after the latest Peugeot 3008 was presented, looking far more like a crossover than the previous models, the French manufacturer has unveiled the 3008 GT, the range-topping SUV.

The 3008 GT flagship model is powered by a 2.0-litre BlueHDi 180 turbo-diesel engine, mated to a EAT6 automatic six-speed gearbox. To set it apart from the regular 3008 it also comes with fender flares and 19-inch tyres, with two-tone diamond-cut wheel rims.

LED headlights are standard and the vehicle has a two-toned roof in “Black Diamond” and double chrome exhaust pipes. The front grille has also been customised, surrounded by a bi-aspect “Sanded Chrome” strip.

Inside you’ll find the new enhanced Peugot i-Cockpit with its 12.3-inch digital instrument panel. Leather seats, accent stitching and a massage function for the driver all add to the comfort level.
