As I have a Puma I am biased, but it's a great bit of kit. Ford have got a nerve calling it an SUV really. The Puma is only 3cm higher off the ground than the Fiesta, with only a 6cm higher roofline, but is longer and wider with a massive boot. It keeps the Fiesta's agility but with more space and practicality, hence the reason the Fiesta was dropped. The Peugeot is much bigger overall but the Puma is a much better drivers car. No need to worry about wet belts in the Puma either as they are all chain driven.
I’d choose the Ford Puma over the Peugeot 2008 for its sharper handling, more dynamic driving experience, and interior design, which I prefer for its simplicity and less glossy finish.
Petrol engines have a disastrous wet cambelt engine on both cars. Stay clear motorists. Do your research or speak to honest mechanic. You have been warned. Regards
The 1.2 puretech has the same issue, it runs a wet belt as well. Just google for the issues with the first models. Both manufacturers have dropped the wet belt in favour of chains as of 2021 models

The battle of wet belt😅😅
Pure crap vs Ecoboom
I'd pick the 2008.
Peugeot is 10 years ahead.
Tough choice, but Puma looks great!
I agree, tough choice. Somehow I lean more to Puma 😁
for those of us in the US... that's USD$19,000. :) So sad that Peugeot doesn't sell cars here in the US... I have always loved French cars!
2008 still looks so good
And diesel makes it a more interesting choice

Nice review loving the channel
Is it an old video? cause it looks like summer :)

Actually the wet cambelt on the Ford is gone since 2019, it's replaced with a chain. The oil pump however is driven by a wet belt.
Buy neither. Both are equally poor, stupid Crossovers, honestly! Go buy a used Fiesta, Fabia, Ibiza, and save on the cost
Ecoboom! 2008 for me.....

Not in the Puma, do some research
Why do a review of two similar cars, but one a petrol the other a diesel 🤔😤
