These spy shots we have just received confirm that Peugeot is already working on the next generation of its successful 5008 model. In comparison to the current version of the MPV, the pictured mule seems to be wider, or at least that’s the impression we have looking at those wider wheel arches. Other changes we can see for now are five wheel bolts instead of the four and that the fuel cap has changed side.

Apparently, the new 5008 will share the same engine range of the upcoming Peugeot 301, designed successor of the 308, meaning a wide range of diesel and petrol engines as well as a diesel-hybrid. The new 5008 is also expected to get lighter, more environment-friendly and more roomy on the inside, but obviously we cannot verify that from these shots.

The Peugeot e-HDI vehicle range has expanded to include the Peugeot 3008 and 5008 models, and the Peugeot Partner Tepee. The models are all equipped with start&stop technology with super-quick switch-on time and no engine vibrations. Peugeot claims fuel consumption is reduced by up to 15 percent on the urban circuit with this kind of technology, as the engine will actually switch itself off at speeds less than 20 km/hr for the manual, or 8 km/hr for the automatic.

After the e-HDI system debuted on the 308 and 508, we now get the MPV 3008 and 5008 models with this option. They are equipped with the 1.6-litre e-HDI engine setup with 112 hp, capable of between 122 and 127 g/km of CO2 emissions. The Peugeot Partner Tepee uses the 92 hp version with automatic shift and about 125 g/km of emissions. A 90-hp version of the Partner will also be available with either automatic or manual transmission.

The e-HDI models come with an “Eco” gauge which measures the time the engine actually stays off during a trip, and which controls the stand-by system at low speeds. It seems the French have decided that the ecological field is one which they can play in early and we’ll be seeing more eco and electrical options roll out in the future across the range.

This is the first official video for the Peugeot 5008, the new French compact MPV derived from the crossover 3008 but equipped with 7 seats and more space, including increased trunk capacity. This cousin of the 7-seater Citroen C4 Picasso will debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show with the same gasoline engines (1.6-liter THP with 120 hp and 150 hp) and diesel engines (1.6-liter with 110hp, and 2.0-liter with 150hp and 163hp) already in use in the 3008.
