Introduced here towards the end of last year the latest Peugeot 3008 SUV now has a new striking appearance and adapting some design cues from the latest sharp-looking 208 hatchback and 2008 SUV, such as the ‘sabre-toothed’ LED daytime running lights, among others. Although there’s a new engine in the latest range but for Malaysia, the direct-injection 1.6 litre THP (Turbo High Pressure) four-pot that generates 167 PS and 240 Nm of torque remains the sole option.
But this does not mean that the 1.6 litre THP engine does not have any tuning potential, because it does. Through the years RaceChip have gained vast experience with Peugeot engines and have prepared the ideal tuning potential which shows satisfactory gains without exceeding the engine’s tolerance to ensure long term usage. Of course, beyond the performance gains, the RaceChip chip tuning module also retains the EPS or Engine Protection System thus keeping all the safety features intact the way it was originally designed from the factory.
With the RaceChip RS this Peugeot 3008 engine will benefit from an additional power increment by up to 25% of horsepower and torque, with up to 15% in fuel saving, which should make for a more lively and satisfactory drive. And with the 100% plug-n-play solution for all RaceChip products, the owner of this stylish and well-equipped Peugeot 3008 can enjoy the new dynamics of his SUV swiftly.
The RaceChip RS is our popular mid-range chip tuning module and it’s also available with the optional App control where you have the option to control the six fine tuning mappings with your smartphone.
