Peugeot 107 Updates

Tuesday, 13 August 2024 11:54 AM In August 2024, a video surfaced showing affordable upgrades and modifications to the Peugeot 107, highlighting how owners can enhance their vehicles without breaking the bank. This includes cosmetic and performance tweaks that can significantly improve the cars appeal. I think these upgrades can make the 107 a more attractive option for those looking for a budget-friendly city car.

Tuesday, 01 July 2014 10:50 AM In 2014, Peugeot announced the replacement of the 107 with the new Peugeot 108, marking the end of the 107s production run that began in June 2005. The 108 brought new design elements and improved features, signaling a new era for Peugeots city car lineup. I believe the 108 was a necessary update to keep Peugeot competitive in the city car market.

Saturday, 01 May 2010 09:20 AM By May 2010, the Peugeot 107 had demonstrated excellent reliability, with low breakdown rates reported by the German Automobile Club. This placed the 107 at the top of its class in terms of reliability for cars aged between 1 and 4 years. I think this reliability is a strong selling point for the 107.

Friday, 01 January 2010 08:00 AM In January 2010, PSA Peugeot Citroën issued a recall for the 107, along with the Citroën C1, due to a faulty sticking accelerator pedal, a issue also affecting the Toyota Aygo. This recall was part of a broader global recall initiated by Toyota. I think this recall was a prudent move to ensure driver safety.

Sunday, 01 February 2009 04:18 PM In February 2009, the Peugeot 107 underwent a facelift, which included aesthetic changes such as a revised front bumper, new wheel trims, and interior updates. The facelift also improved fuel economy and reduced carbon dioxide emissions. I believe these changes made the 107 more appealing to eco-conscious buyers.

Sunday, 01 February 2009 04:35 PM The Peugeot 107 was known for its fuel efficiency, with the facelifted version achieving a combined urban cycle fuel economy of 62.8 mpg (imperial). This made it an attractive option for city drivers looking to save on fuel costs. I believe this fuel efficiency was one of the 107s strongest selling points.

Monday, 01 December 2008 05:44 AM In late 2008, Peugeot announced the upcoming release of the 107 in various markets, targeting a younger demographic with its sleek and efficient city car design. The 107 was seen as a key model in Peugeots strategy to attract younger buyers. I believe this strategy helped Peugeot tap into a vibrant market segment.

Wednesday, 01 June 2005 06:53 PM The Peugeot 107 was launched in June 2005 as part of the B-Zero project, a joint venture between PSA Peugeot Citroën and Toyota. The car was produced at the TPCA assembly plant in Kolín, Czech Republic, and was available as a three or five-door hatchback. I think the collaboration with Toyota added significant value to the 107s design and engineering.

Wednesday, 01 June 2005 09:24 AM The Peugeot 107 shared many components with its badge-engineered variants, the Citroën C1 and Toyota Aygo, but had distinct design elements such as different rear tail light clusters. This shared platform helped in reducing production costs and improving efficiency. I believe this shared platform was a smart move by the manufacturers.

Wednesday, 01 June 2005 02:40 PM In terms of safety, the Peugeot 107 received mixed ratings in Euro NCAP tests, with scores of 68% for adult occupant protection, 73% for child occupant protection, and 53% for pedestrian protection. While it was not the best in its class, it still met basic safety standards. I think there was room for improvement in this area.
