The new Peugeot 3008 CrossOver vehicle is the star of this video that you can click on. In the video a high-tech theme featuring strange but cuddly robotic beings is used to show the vehicle's versatile nature and drivability. In some shots we can see a couple of nice features like a head-up display unit and a panoramic glass roof that extends to the far rear end.

After quite a disappointing effort of the Peugeot designers in the 607, we are expecting something with a bit more aggression and sportiness for the new generation 608. It is widely expected the new model will draw its design inspiration to the well received 308 RC Z Concept and if sources are correct we could see it as soon as the Paris Motor Show this year.

Peugeot UK is introducing new model and trim levels in the 308 range. The new 308 CC which goes on sale in June will feature three trim levels namely a Sport, an SE and a GT version. There are plenty of standard appointments in the Sport including black instrument dials, front fog lights and 16-inch alloy wheels. ABS with EBA and EBFD as well as ESP are part of the deal. The baseline Sport is priced from £19,495.

Inside there's a Peugeot Sound RD4-1 Radio/CD player, air conditioning and leather steering wheel. The SE model also gets features like cruise control, rear parking assistance and the bigger 17-inch wheels. The SE comes at a price of £20,395.

Thanks mainly to Georges Paulin, a clever Parisian dentist turned automotive engineer/designer (executed for Resistance activities in 1942), Peugeot can claim to have invented the automatic retractable car roof 75 years ago.

Indubitably, Peugeot also reinvented the CC (Coupé Cabriolet), first with a 1998 concept, then with the production 206 CC two years later, followed by versions of the 307 and 207. In total, Peugeot has made more than 650,000 CCs.

New spy shots of the the Peugeot 3008 have surfaced, showing the Nissan Qashqai competitor completely undisguised.  Picked up along the eastern part of France, the photographer got clear shots inside and out.
