Peugeot will unveil the 3008 model - a small minivan which would also have a four-by-four version - at the Paris Auto Show this autumn. It will be based on the 308 small car that was launched last year.

A spokesman for Peugeot declined comment but added the brand would have several novelties at the Paris car show in October and said the platform 2, on which 308 is based, was likely to be used for other models as well.
