It's quite hard to tell that it's a replacement to the 5008 MPV, until you see the badge at the rear.

Inside, the 5008 features the 'i-Cockpit' similar to the new 3008. The dashboard is designed around the driver with the center console and its controls noticeably angled. One of the main highlights of i-Cockpit is the 12.3-inch high-res driver screen that can display sat-nav, music info or conventional instrument dials. On the low-set dashboard is an eight-inch freestanding touchscreen, ‘piano key’ switches for various functions and a new gear selector beside the Grip Control terrain selector and electronic parking brake.
