It's hard to believe Peugeot showed the i-Cockpit back in 2010 with the SR1 concept before putting it into production a couple of years later on the 208 supermini. Fast forward to 2023, the French brand is unveiling an evolution of the unconventional dashboard layout with the Panoramic i-Cockpit. Debuting in September on the next 3008, the setup brings a 21-inch curved display. As with the previous arrangement, it’s mounted high up on the dash.
Gently curved towards the driver, the fancy new screen is complemented by what Peugeot refers to as i-Toggles. These are mounted on the center console and consist of 10 touch-sensitive buttons that can be configured to better suit the needs of the driver and front passenger. Doing so has reduced the number of conventional controls to a minimum, thus creating a minimalist design to show less is indeed more.
