Peugeot has unveiled its new 5008 people carrier, which it says draws influence from the classic seven-seat 505 estate.
The 4.53m-long model has seating for seven. The seats in the second row can be reclined individually, and the back row folds flat to give 2506 litres of luggage capacity.

The front passenger seat also folds into a ‘shelf configuration’ to allow long objects to be loaded as far as the dashboard.
The 5008 will be available with three different engines in various states of tune. The line-up includes a 156bhp 1.6-litre petrol unit delivering 39.7mpg, and a 150bhp diesel returning 48.7mpg.
The features list includes a head-up display that shows speed and distance alerts, and ‘Snow Motion’, a traction control system designed to make it easier to drive on snow and ice.
The 5008 will go on sale in the UK at the beginning of next year.
Prices are likely to start at around £15,000.
