2007 Peugeot 207

For some the main car, for most a second car, the 206 became a «cult» car with a strong image.
With its innovative architecture and user-friendliness, both a result of being designed around its occupants, the stylish 206 is pleasing to the eye with its unique profi le creating a naturally dynamic single-compartment vehicle. Offering a high level of performance, it provides its owner with a safe driving environment and maximum driving pleasure at all times.

A different car, the 206 paved the way for new, emerging expectations that have come increasingly to the fore among small car owners.

The latter demand a strong stylish vehicle that refl ects their personality, a car to support their image, a true focal point of freedom to be shared, a spacious but compact car, a car that likes being of service and that can cleverly transform «time spent» into «time saved».

The 207, ready to turn the need for mobility into real driving pleasure

Combining the three strong points of visual appeal, personality and technical ability, the 207, which will succeed but not replace the 206, is the genuine forerunner of a new generation.
With a power of attraction that will leave no one indifferent, the 207 has been designed to offer clear and appealing advantages that turn the need for mobility into genuine driving pleasure.

The fi rst of a range that stays true to the analogy of the “daisy” and its numerous “petals”, both the 3 and 5-door versions embody the new «motoring logic» of the 207 by revealing:

A sporty and strong style
An original design with two different front styling looks, but both with large headlamps, one with a «classic» styling look, the other more «sporty», featuring a distinctive «triangular» profi le that reveals a large glazed surface area, characterised by sculpted wheel arches and a powerfully curved rear design, the 207 naturally continues one of the key values of the Peugeot Marque... Visual appeal ...

Generous proportions
A length of 4.03 m, a wheelbase of 2.54 m, a width of 1.72 m and a height limited to 1.47 m create a balance, a sense of dynamism and security, reinforced by wide tracks and large wheels. The 207 wears its heart on its sleeve...

Dynamic handling
Precise control and durability are the hallmarks of the 207’s suspension, which is “assisted” by power steering that feels effi cient and comfortable both in town and on the open road... A must for any driver ...

Modern, high performance engines
Petrol versions come with three engines: 1.4 litre 54 kW (˜ 75 bhp), ˜ 1.4 litre 65 kW (˜ 90 bhp) and 1.6 litre 80 kW (˜ 110 bhp), soon to be supplemented by new high-tech engines, a result of the cooperation between PSA Peugeot Citroën and the BMW Group.
The Diesel range features three HDi engines and a diesel particulate fi lter system (DPFS): 1.4 litre 50 kW (˜ 70 bhp), 1.6 litre 66 kW (˜ 90 bhp) and 80 kW (˜ 110 bhp). They share a liking for economy and driving pleasure, as well as respect for the environment, with CO2 emission values ranging from 120 g/km to 126 g/km.

Thanks to its power and a torque of 240 Nm (or 260 Nm with overboost activated), the 1.6 litre engine offers a level of performance close to that found in sports cars....
Welcoming interior
Its contemporary and dynamic passenger compartment with an instrument panel design more often seen in the world of motorbikes invites you to get seated behind the steering wheel or simply creates a sense of enjoyment and well being.

In the 207, interior space suggests that normally found in a higher segment car, especially with its length of 1.675 m. Numerous large storage areas (12.2 litre glove box with air conditioning) and a regularly shaped boot with a capacity of 270 dm3 VDA housing the spare wheel under the fl oor, bears witness to a meticulously designed layout.

With new accessories that fl atter the senses, such as automatic dual-zone air conditioning, fragrance diffuser, static directional lighting, and not forgetting the JBL hi-fi system and its refi ned acoustic environment, the passenger compartment of the 207 deserves to be sampled and experienced...

Peace of mind
The 207 combines a rigid structure with dual impact absorption structures, 6 air bags and 5 seat belts with force limiters to protect its passengers.
Protection for pedestrians is also integral to the design of the front of the vehicle– structure and bodywork –.

Choice of colours and trims
Fourteen body colours, two interior ambiences in black or light beige, ten main fabrics, two leather trims, four instrument panel designs ... as well as many other features, allow the seven versions that make up the 207 range to express their personality in different ways... a rich and varied range.

The share of the small car segment in the European car market has grown from 31 to 33 % between 1998 and 2005 and is set to increase by the same amount over the next five years.

During the same period, thanks to the success of the 206, Peugeot has seen its car sales in the B segment increase by 85 %. Peugeot, however, intend to remain a key player in this segment and are responding by expanding their product range (107, 1007, 206 with the new 207) to meet the diverse requirements of motorists created by our ever changing society:

•  an increase in the number of people living alone,
•  an increase in the number of young, single people at work and living with their parents,
•  an increase in the number of active older citizens as a result of a lower retirement age,
•  an increase in the number of “extended” families,
•  the need for more than one car per household to cater for the independent activities of different family members.

The 207, an intense driving experience.

Writing a new page of Peugeot’s history in the cult “2.” series
The «2.» series has its origins in 1929, with the arrival of the 201. The «2» series has then gone on to leave its mark on the 20th century, with the 202, 203, 204, and then, in 1983, the 205, a «sacred number» that would be replicated 5,278,054 times in fifteen years, as a three and five door hatchback, CTi «cabriolet», GTi and the Turbo 16, a double winner in each of its sporting adventures in the World Rally Championship and the Paris-Dakar long-distance rally.

In its wake, the 206 continued the «saga» and since its launch in 1998 it has become the «most successful number of all»: three and five door hatchbacks with their innovative architecture, the elegant and practical SW, the Coupé Cabriolet and the WRC, triple champion in the world of rallying. With more than 5,300,000 examples already built, production of the 206 has now been extended to numerous production sites around the world, enabling the car to continue its fantastic career. It was recently unveiled in its «6th silhouette», the 206 sedan, which will begin its international career this year.

The car for a new generation, the 207 follows the 206 – not, however, as a replacement – but an alternative car with a strong and expressive character that promises to put the fun back into driving.
