Head Up Display

The 3008 Exclusive & Allure models have a Head Up Display, which projects a reading onto a small perspex like screen just in front of the main windscreen area in front of the driver. It also contains a distance alert, which warns the driver if they are too close to the car in front. It also displays details for Cruise Control or the Speed Limiter.

Hybrid version

The Peugeot 3008 HYbrid4 was launched in February 2012[3] and is the world's first mass production diesel-electric hybrid.[5]

The crossover hybrid has four different operating modes: Auto (the electronics automatically control the entire system), ZEV (all-electric), four-wheel drive mode (4WD) and sport (higher engine speeds than normal mode). A 200v nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery pack is located in the rear.[6]
