When will hybrid versions of the Peugeot 3008 be available in the UK?

Can you tell me when the 3008 Hybrid will be available in the UK and have there been any reviews yet?

All I've got is:

Coming in 2011 in both the 3008 and new 508, 'Hybrid4' Technology describes the hybridisation of a traditional diesel engine with an electric motor, in an original layout in engineering terms that also allows the possibility of four wheel drive. While the traditional engine is located as usual under the bonnet and drives the front wheels, the electric motor is located under the load area floor adjacent to the rear suspension, like the Lexus RX400h. Prologue Hybrid 4 concept car was presented with a 2.0 litre HDi FAP engine with a power of 163 bhp and an electric motor with a maximum capacity of 37 bhp providing a maximum torque of 300 Nm at the front and 200 Nm at the rear. Despite this performance, its fuel consumption in the combined cycle is only 4.1 litres / 100 km, with CO2 emissions of just 99 g/km. The 3008 will be the Group's first vehicle to be equipped with Hybrid 4 technology.
