After a long absence from the country's automotive industry, Peugeot, represented by PT. Astra International Tbk. in Indonesia, recently launched the latest model of the Peugeot 3008. This can be called a good momentum for Peugeot to grab the attention of automotive lovers in Indonesia, because the Peugeot 3008 is touted as one of the leading car models in the compact SUV class.
Not only does it have a charming interior, the Peugeot 3008 is also equipped with the latest technology. Initially this model only had one variant, the GT Line variant, but later a cheaper trim was also launched, namely the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus.
In the same segment, the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus competes with one of the cars from the same continent, namely the BMW X1 2019. The BMW X1 Sports Car is only available in 1 variant, namely the BMW X1 sDrive18i xLine. The price of the BMW X1 ranges from IDR 850 million. This is the newest and newest BMW car in 2020. These two cars are considered as competitors from each other because they have similar body dimensions and have almost the same engine capacity.
As cars that both compete in the compact SUV segment, the two car models are also often compared in terms of space and practicality of use. Approximately, which model is superior?
Comparison of the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus and the BMW X1
At first glance, the dimensions of the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus and BMW X1 car bodies are almost the same size. Both models also have the same passenger capacity, namely 5 passengers. But for more details, let's look at the following table.
The Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus does come with quite large dimensions. But when compared to the BMW X1, the car is still less wide. This will more or less affect the flexibility of the cabin space it has.
But regarding the leg room and head room, it can be said that the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus is superior to these competitors. This is because the car has body dimensions that are longer and taller than the BMW X1.
As a compact SUV, another thing that is no less important than the space of a car is the luggage space. Although the difference is insignificant, it can be seen that the luggage capacity of the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus is larger than the luggage capacity of these competitors.
Conclusion
Regarding space, the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus is indeed superior to the BMW X1. Although the 2020 BMW X1 sDrive18i xLine has a wider body so that the cabin space is more flexible, the higher and longer dimensions of the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus can guarantee a wider legroom and headroom. In addition, the Peugeot 3008 Allure Plus' luggage capacity is larger than its competitors.
