Form WhatCar? Magazine review, the car has been praised for its practical features and kits. Particularly WhatCar? says, “the 3008 is practical, refined and easy to drive. A sumptuous cabin and some excellent engines help make it even more appealing – and our 2011 Crossover of the Year”.

A lot of the model we have seen on the internet come with low profile tyres which is a good thing for safety.

It’s a fine all-rounder for families. It’s design doesn’t really appeal as office car but we reckon if it feels good enough, companies and organization will buy it. But for this design one has to watch out for body roll since its stands tall.

But here, the neat trick PAN could pull off as far as mini crossovers are concern. The 3008 has only one rival which has not flooded the market yet. As a large enterprise, what it will have as an advantage is a lot of publicity to play with and make sure their cars could go on the road like a bottle of coke.

With a 1.6 liter petrol engine, it should come in affordable price tag. From other reviews, readers are adviced to opt for a 3008 with Dynamic Roll Control and it combines a comfortable ride with good body control and plenty of grip. We believe its driving manner will still be as good as the 307 sedan or station wagon.

But until it is officially confirmed, we can only wait and see what PAN Nigeria is going to offer.
