The spaciousness feel is visible from the outside. The car's windscreen has a total of 1.7 square meters and it is continued by the 1.69 square meters panoramic roof. The glazed surfaces on the 5008 total a whooping 5.77 square meters, side window included, of course.
The second strong point of the 5008 is the modularity. The second row comprises three seats of equal width, which can be adjusted lengthwise and feature reclining seat backs. The seats can be folded either individually into the passenger compartment floor, or into a shelf configuration, allowing the effective load length of the 5008 to stand at 2.76 m.
As for the driver, apart from the more and more common head-up display, he/she will benefit from the entire range of safety features now in use, so that the safety of all those passengers is not jeopardized: ESP, six air bags, automatic electric parking brake with "hill assist" function, fasten seat belt warnings on all seats and tire under-inflation detection.
