Pros and cons
What’s good
- High 219 mm ground clearance: Effortlessly clears deep speed bumps and unpaved upcountry tracks.
- Stunning aircraft i-Cockpit: Satin chrome toggle switches and 12.3-inch digital display.
- Sub-2,000 cc KRA duty advantage: 1.2T, 1.5D, and 1.6T engines qualify for 25% excise duty rate.
- Class-leading 220 mm ground clearance: Conquers deep potholes, tall speed bumps, and rough upcountry tracks.
- Symmetrical AWD with Dual X-Mode: Exceptional mud, snow, and deep gravel traction.
- Sub-2,500 cc KRA tax advantage: All 1.8T, 2.0L, and 2.5L engines qualify for 25% excise tax rate.
- Highly precise German engineering: Excellent chassis rigidity and high-speed highway composure.
- Sub-1,500 cc duty advantage on 1.4T TSI: Sits in KRA's lower customs duty tax valuation category.
- High 201 mm ground clearance: Easily clears deep potholes, tall speed bumps, and rough estate roads.
- Optional 7-seater Allspace layout: Provides third-row seating capacity with a huge 760 L trunk floor.
What’s not so good
- FWD only (non-PHEV): Relies on Advanced Grip Control rather than mechanical dual-axle 4WD.
- High-spec electrical system: Requires certified Peugeot diagnostic tools for servicing.
- Lineartronic CVT response: CVT engine revs during heavy highway mountain passes.
- EyeSight windshield camera care: Requires specialized recalibration if windscreen is replaced.
- High CRSP customs valuation: Import taxes represent a solid investment compared to Japanese crossovers.
- Requires quality synthetic oils: DSG transmission requires fluid service every 60,000 km.
