Information about Peugeot 407

The Peugeot 407 is a large family car produced by the French automaker Peugeot since 2004 (8 years ago). It is available in saloon, coupé and estate variants, with both Diesel and petrol engines. The petrol engines range from 1.8 to 3.0-litres displacement, whereas the diesels are 1.6, 2.0, 2.2 and 2.7-litre V6.

Overview

The 407 was the successor to the hugely successful Peugeot 406, and was launched on May 27, 2004 (8 years ago). The streamlined design of the car was seen as quite radical, its most distinctive features being its large front grille and the steeply raked screen pillars.

The estate, known as the 407 SW, was launched four months after the saloon, whereas the coupé has been on sale since early 2006 (6 years ago).

Saloon and SW models were given a minor facelift in summer 2008 (4 years ago) with all petrol-engined models being withdrawn from sale in the United Kingdom.

407 concept cars

The saloon version of the 407 was firstly previewed with the name "407 Elixir" at the 2003 (9 years ago) Frankfurt Motor Show. The "407 Silhouette" is a race car with most design features of the current coupé. A version almost identical to the released coupé was presented at the 2005 (7 years ago) Geneva Motor Show under the name "407 Prologue".

The "407 Macarena" is a four-door coupé convertible produced by Heuliez and presented at the 2006 (6 years ago) Geneva Motor Show.
