Peugeot 207 vs Peugeot 206 - Model ComparisonBack to news index Sun Jan 15, 2006 With an increase of more than 50% in its total world sales since 1998 and growth of more than 80% in sales of vehicles in the B segment, Peugeot is a leading player in the small car segment. With the 207, alongside the 107, 1007 and 206, Peugeot can now provide different vehicles for customers with differing profiles, many of whom have a high level of disposable income and also meet their differing expectations and needs.
The 207 will be available at launch as either a three or five door hatchback, but will be joined later by other body styles as the range evolves. The 207 is based on Peugeot’s platform one, which it shares with the innovative Peugeot 1007 and was designed in house by Peugeot’s own stylists. The Peugeot 207 has a unique appearance with a blend of soft curves and bold contours which together, create an elegant car whose exterior style, however, still retains a recognisable visual link to the Marque’s other vehicles. At launch, the 207 will be available with a range of six engine options with a five speed manual gearbox on all versions.
