2012 Peugeot 4008 Commercial: Distinctive Toughness

We don’t know exactly when PSA Peugeot Citroen will let their new crossovers loose onto the European Market, but it must be soon since we’ve spotted the first commercial for the the 4008 on Peugeot’s Youtube channel, and this is it.
Just like yesterday’s press photos, they are giving the city-dwelling crossover some off-roading credentials unbefitting a car that’s sold as standard with front-wheel drive. But the platform it inherited from the Mitsubishi ASX is decent, a something we found out when we tested the little Mitsu’.

The 4008 offers both four-wheel-drive system with three transmission modes: two-wheel drive, four-wheel drive and Lock, which will get you out of a tight spot. Presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, Peugeot 4008 will go on sale initially in international markets from 2012 second quarter.
