The Peugeot 207 is a B-segment passenger car produced by the French PSA Group. It made its debut at the 2006 Paris Motor Show and was designed as the successor to the highly popular Peugeot 206. However, the manufacturer also introduced the 206+ model, which served as a transitional version between the 206 and 207.
The Peugeot 207 is over 20 cm longer than its predecessor, offering increased interior space, enhanced equipment, and more modern features. Positioned in a slightly higher price range, the model still achieved strong sales, appealing to drivers who prefer slightly larger compact cars. In 2007 alone, over 430,000 units were sold. The following year, the 207 ranked second in sales, just behind the Volkswagen Golf.
The Peugeot 207 is available in three body styles: hatchback, estate, and coupé-cabriolet. The latter, known as the Peugeot 207 CC, features a retractable hardtop and a sporty, dynamic design. All versions received a facelift in 2009, which included redesigned front bumpers, updated headlights, and refreshed rear light covers.
Engine options include 1.4-litre petrol units (available in 75 hp, 90 hp, and 95 hp variants) and 1.6-litre petrol engines (offering 120 hp, 150 hp, or 174 hp in the RC version). Diesel options consist of a 1.4 HDi engine with 71 or 92 hp and a 1.6 HDi engine delivering 90 or 109 hp.
In addition to its stylish design and well-equipped interior, the Peugeot 207 stands out for its comfort and safety. It earned a five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests, confirming its high safety standards.
The factory tyre sizes for the Peugeot 207 are: 185/65 R15, 195/55 R16, and 205/45 R17.
