The 2021 South African Car of the Year (COTY) trophy was awarded to the striking Peugeot 2008 that launched locally earlier this year with extrovert styling and impressive utility, beating out 23 finalists in the prestigious competition. The competition was organised by the South African Guild of Motoring Journalists (SAGMJ) since 1986, this is the country’s most respected and sought-after motoring accolade.
Wheels24 editor Janine Van der Post is one of the SAGMJ jury members; she says: “The Peugeot 2008 SUV is a well-deserved winner. It’s an all-rounder with great value-for-money. The 2008 was one of my top cars, and I’m glad my fellow peers felt the same way.“
With lines that are at once fluid and robust, the new Peugeot 2008 SUV delivers masterful power and efficiency. Its expressive front end, horizontal bonnet, and raised ground clearance are traced beneath tight lines and tailored flanks that hug the chassis. At the back, the spoiler, gloss black strip, and chrome affirm its sporty, tenacious personality.
