How to spot one

Look for

  • Mk1: tall, rounded bodywork, a huge grille and a two-piece tailgate.16
  • Mk2: an upright nose, a long horizontal hood and large wheels.11
  • Mk2: a glossy black strip connects rear lamps marked by three LED claws.11
  • Mk3: a fastback roof, floating rear spoiler and three-claw front lighting.49

Year by year

  1. 2013 (Mk1 facelift)

    LED daytime-running strips, headlights flowing into the hood edges and a squared-off grille identify the facelift.16

  2. 2016–2017 (Mk2)

    The new SUV body brings a bluff nose, a large grille and three-element rear lamps.45

  3. 2020–2021 (Mk2 facelift)

    Grille elements extend under the headlights, LED fangs reach into the bumper, and full-LED rear lamps gain a smoked finish.10111319

  4. August 2022 (Mk2)

    Parts shortages brought pre-facelift rear lamps back to Allure, Active and Active Pack, so taillights alone can misdate a car.11

  5. 2024 (Mk3)

    A fastback tail and floating spoiler arrive, with a larger grille emblem and claw lighting front and rear.4

Don’t confuse it with

  • Peugeot 2008

    Against the Mk2 3008, look for the 2008's triangular body-side sculpting; the design team reserved that treatment for the 2008.20

  • Peugeot 5008 II

    The 5008 II shares the Mk2 3008's front bodywork; look for the 5008's larger glass area.11

  • Peugeot 4008 (China)

    The Chinese Mk2 counterpart is stretched: 4,510 mm long versus 4,450 mm for the 3008.411
