Peugeot Philippines Brings in Diesel-Powered 3008 GT Line SUV (w/ Specs)


Launched last November, Peugeot Philippines brought in the all-new 3008—the brand’s fresh, bold approach to the compact SUV segment. While it defied SUV convention by focusing on elements such as driving dynamics, weight, and performance, fans clamored for the return of a diesel variant, something Peugeot has built a strong reputation for locally.

This month, Peugeot Philippines is addressing that by launching a new variant of the 3008 GT Line powered by an advanced 2.0-liter BlueHDI diesel engine. Euro 4 compliant, it makes 150 horsepower and 370 Nm of torque. This engine is mated to a 6-speed automatic powering the front wheels.

The rest of the package, from the aesthetics to conveniences features are the same as the 1.6 Petrol variant. It has key features such as Peugeot’s second-generation i-Cockpit which integrates a fully digital dashboard, elevated driving position, and a multi-function touchscreen infotainment system.

Price for the 3008 GT Line 2.0 BlueHDI is P 2,790,000, a P 200,000 premium over the 1.6 Petrol variant.

    1. I'd recommend this one. European cars have better quality and feel than any Jap car, even a Mazda.

  2. Hard to choose brother.. Pareho mganda. Ang downside lang ng puegot is convinience ng after market service. Sobrang ng start pa lang ang dealership nila dito.

  3. Hirap nyan kung dalhin mo sa probinsya na walang dealer na maka service. Mazda has at least better network of dealers.

    1. Yes, True. Puegot is a mass market brand sa france and neighbor countries. May stigma kasi sa mga pinoy na basta galing europe luxury brand na.

    2. Pricing is fair as this takes into account things like shipping. Obviously, mas mahal mag-ship ng kotse mula France (or anywhere in Europe) to the Philippines......compared to say Japan->PH or Korea->PH. Dun pa lang, added na iyan sa mga excise tax and custom fee, etc.
