Where each one leads
Peugeot 3008
- New Peugeot 3008 cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 111 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 147 for the SEAT Ateca in 2022.
- Measured by the cars' own fuel meters, the diesel Peugeot 3008 uses 6.0 l/100 km on the road, the SEAT Ateca 6.4.
SEAT Ateca
- Against cars of the same age, the SEAT Ateca comes out better at its first MOT test (passes 5% more often than average) than the Peugeot 3008 (passes 7% less often than average).
- Fewer SEAT Ateca cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (1.7% against 2.3%).
Too close to call: real-world fuel use in Europe, petrol (l/100 km).
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
