Peugeot 3008 III (P64): The Electric Shift and the Abandonment of Diesel Expert note regarding your request: You mentioned the "III (P84)" generation and targeted the "diesel" engine. There is a common confusion: the code P84 corresponds to the 2nd generation (2016-2023). The 3rd generation, launched in 2024, bears the code P64. Crucial point: Peugeot has definitively abandoned Diesel (BlueHDi) engines on this 3rd generation. Based on Stellantis' brand new multi-energy STLA Medium platform, the 3008 III reinvents itself as a "Fastback" SUV. It completely breaks with the mechanical past: goodbye diesel and the old 1.2 PureTech wet belt. The range is now exclusively built around mild hybridization (MHEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV), and 100% electric (e-3008). It is a groundbreaking model, techno
Expert's Verdict If you are looking for a new Peugeot 3008 Diesel (2024-2025), the answer is simple: it no longer exists. Peugeot has made the radical choice to discontinue the BlueHDi with this 3rd generation (P64). To compensate, the new 1.2 Hybrid 136 hp (MHEV) is the most rational proposition. The good news is that it abandons the capricious timing belt of the old generation for a timing chain, which suggests much better mechanical reliability. However, the electrified e-DCS6 gearbox is new and could suffer from early defects (jerks, software bugs). Buying advice: If you are a very high-mileage motorway driver (> 30,000 km/year), the absence of diesel is a real drawback; turn to a VW Tiguan TDI or look for a late 2023 3008 II (P84) on the used market. If you opt for this new 3008 III, prioritize a lease (LOA/LLD) or negotiate a maximum extended warranty to protect yourself from the inevitable electronic "teething problems" of the first years of production.
