Question 1

Is the Peugeot 5008 EAT8 gearbox reliable?

Accepted Answer

Generally, yes: the EAT8 is an eight-speed torque-converter automatic made by Aisin, with a good record. On a test drive it should shift smoothly and without jolts, both cold and once warm.

Question 2

Was the first Peugeot 5008 sold with an automatic?

Accepted Answer

Some petrol and diesel versions had a six-speed automatic, but many first-generation 5008s with two pedals have the EGC or ETG6 robotised manual instead. That box shifts slowly and with a nod, so try it in traffic before buying.

Question 3

Which gearbox does the hybrid Peugeot 5008 use?

Accepted Answer

The 2024 5008's 1.2 mild hybrid uses a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox with its electric motor built in, and the plug-in hybrid a seven-speed dual-clutch. The electric E-5008 has a single fixed ratio.

Question 4

Does an automatic Peugeot 5008 pay more road tax in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Not because of the gearbox: the tax follows the official CO₂ figure × 0.6 for petrol or 0.9 for diesel × a band factor. An automatic can have a slightly different CO₂ figure from the manual, and the electric E-5008 pays the €30 minimum.
