The innovative design of Peugeot cars is perfectly united with unique French charm. Small and maneuverable car, it is just ideal for any city. Design of Peugeot 107 is performed in the same style as last models Peugeot of 7-th generation. The extended "cat's" headlights and a charming smile emphasize intriguing and crafty character of this car. Combining simplicity and originality, ease and safety 107-th model is the bright representative of the big city. Compact and economic car seems to be created to slide smoothly within city streets, playfully coming through any traffic-jam.

Design

Peugeot 107 is a tiny 4-seats hatchback, ideal car for a mega city. The charming model is presented with 3 and 5-doors body and it has two variants of a complete set. The maneuverable city car is equipped with the petrol engine which completely corresponds to ecological norms of Euro 4.

Peugeot 107 is more than tiny: its length is 3.4 m, width - 1.6 m, and height - 1.4 m. The newest platform developed in cooperation with Japanese company Toyota is in the basis of the car.

The suspension bracket easily ignores roughness but jolting begins if you drive a car over surface. And if road is covered with sand or stones you are as if in the drum. It is easy to run this car but high body often heels. There is no place for a passenger at the second row. But it is quite convenient and roomy for two passengers. There are headrests which approach to the back of seats if there are no passengers.

Engine

Certainly, it is not a luxury car but not driver's one as well. Having looked under a cowl it is possible to think that a diesel engine is there. But release of diesel cars is promised to begin only in following year (all of them will be equipped with the French 70-strong motors in volume 1.4). So it was just a shiver of the unbalanced three-cylinder motor.
