2008 Peugeot 407

Engine range

Petrol and diesel engines extend over a wide range and include four- and six-cylinder engines coupled with manual and automatic transmissions to power a very ‘broad’ range:

The petrol engine range:

• 1.8-litre – 92 kW (≈125bhp) – 170Nm at 3750rpm – 5-speed manual gearbox
• 2.0-litre – 103 kW (≈140bhp) – 200Nm at 4000rpm – 5-speed manual or automatic gearbox
• 2.2-litre – 120 kW (≈163bhp) – 220Nm at 4150rpm – 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox
• 3.0-litre – 155 kW (≈211bhp) – 290Nm at 3750rpm – 6-speed automatic gearbox

The HDi FAP diesel engine range

• 1.6-litre – 80 kW (≈110bhp) – 240Nm at 1750rpm – 5-speed manual gearbox
• 2.0-litre Euro 4 – 100 kW (≈136bhp) – 320Nm at 2000rpm – 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic gearbox
• 2.0-litre EURO 5 – 103 kW (≈140bhp) – 320Nm at 2000rpm – 6-speed manual gearbox
• 2.2-litre dual-turbo – 125 kW (≈170bhp) – 370Nm at 1500rpm – 6-speed manual gearbox
• 2.7-litre V6 – 150 kW (≈204bhp) – 440Nm at 1900rpm – 6-speed automatic gearbox

A new “biofuel” options

A 2.0-litre ‘Biofl ex’ engine operating on E85 bioethanol is available in some destinations.

• 2.0-litre – 103 kW (≈140bhp) – 200Nm at 4000rpm – 5-speed manual gearbox

All 407 HDi diesel engines are also capable of operating on a 30% mixture (B30) of biodiesel fuel.

The 407 – Greater respect for the environment

The 407 continues to further the environmental policy to which Peugeot is committed. From its initial conception, the best possible compromise between dynamism/fuel consumption/ emissions was sought for the 407.

To reduce the vehicle’s weight and at the same time offer a high-level of specifi cation, performance and protection, the decision was made to use light alloys for bulky suspension components, with the choice of Cobapress* aluminium for parts with complex shapes (the hub carrier in particular), as well as an aluminium bonnet and numerous other high-strength steel panels.

In addition, the car’s aerodynamic shape, electrohydraulic power steering and air conditioning, with external compressor control, help to reduce fuel consumption.

For example, 407 Saloons and SWs equipped with the 1.6-litre HDi FAP 80 kW (≈110bhp) engine benefi t from a fuel consumption of 5.3 litres/100km and CO2 emissions reduced to
140 g/km due to this underlying work and enginespecifi c technology. This value is extremely attractive in the M2 segment and positions the new 407 at the very best level, particularly on the corporate fl eet market.

The 2.0-litre HDi FAP engine with 6-speed manual gearbox has been optimised to fully comply with the latest Euro 5 standard which comes into force in 2009 for new vehicles and 2010 for all other vehicles. These regulations apply stricter limits to emission levels of hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and particles.

While increasing its power from 100 to 103kW, its fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are down (150 g of CO2 compared to 155g for the saloon and 159g for the SW).

Launched from July 2008 according to destinations, this engine will therefore be replacing the 2.0-litre HDi FAP Euro 4 100kW (136bhp). Since all HDi Diesel engines are equipped with the additive-enhanced particle emissions fi lter (FAP), the 407 will be able to boast a level of particle emissions on the very threshold of measurable limits for many years to come, thereby anticipating future imposed targets.
