Peugeot 207 1.6 HDi 90 hp Read to know more about it

After the praise, as well as the excellent performance that the Peugeot 206 brought with it, it was almost impossible to imagine that its successor would be able to surpass this success. However, the Peugeot 207 proved to be a great model, which has attracted the attention of many customers since 2006, when it began production, and it still does today, which is reflected in the relatively high price of a used car.

Although it belongs to the class of city cars, this is a spacious car, which behaves more than great in city driving, but also on the open road. Unlike its predecessor, this model has a slightly better solution when it comes to the comfort and space of rear seat passengers, but due to the sloping roof, it still feels a little less space than the driver and front passenger.

Wide choice of engines

Peugeot based the 207-ce platform on a modified version of the one used in the Citroen C3, which can be purchased with both diesel and petrol engines in three variants. Initially, three 1.4 petrol engines with 75hp, 1.4 16v with 90hp and 1.6 16v with 110hp were available. Since the end of 2006, the 1.4 and 1.6 engines have been replaced by new petrol engines with variable valve travel “valvetronic”, of the same cubic capacity but with slightly more horsepower, whose designation is VTI. 1.4 VTI with 96 and 1.6 VTI with 122HP. There are also two turbocharged engines with 150 and 175 hp intercoolers, while diesel engines are available in 1.4cc versions with 70hp and 1.6 HDI with 90hp and 110hp.

Diesels have proven to be much better than petrols, so on this occasion we single out the 1.6 HDi with 90 hp, which, although not the most powerful model, proved to be very good, both in crowds and on the open road, where it behaves especially in curves perfect. Acceleration of 100 km / h is reached in about 12 seconds and represents a solid time for this category of vehicle, and it is important to note that acceleration is certainly affected by a slightly higher weight, about 200 kg more than 206. However, when it reaches maximum speed of 180 km / h shows its excellent capabilities, so with an extremely strong sense of control of the vehicle, this four-wheeler boasts both excellent driving behavior and seat comfort, which was to be expected from Peugeot. Also, the consumption of this diesel on the open road does not exceed 5 liters, while in city traffic jams it will reach 7 liters.

Better interior design

The Peugeot 207 can be purchased with three or five doors, but also in the convertible and station wagon versions. Also, this model can be purchased in the Sport, but also in the four-door sedan variant. Slightly smaller space in the rear of the car is a complaint of almost every customer, but it can not be heard when it comes to design, as well as the size of the trunk that can hold a lot of luggage, and the rear bench can be moved if necessary. The whole cabin is perfectly tucked away, so you can feel comfort even when driving a little sharper or when cornering, because the car’s skidding is really minimal. In the front part of the vehicle, there are a large number of additional compartments, so this will allow you to store small items, bottles, discs…

Mane

Although some major shortcomings really cannot be attributed to this Peugeot model, we must mention that all those who, due to the noise coming from the engine, are not fans of gasoline will be disappointed, because even diesel engines will not be spared noise. Also, the wheel bearings have proven to be slightly worse, so more frequent replacement can be expected.

Due to the really great performance, the price of this used car is still a bit higher, compared to the competitors, so the used Peugeot 207 1.6 HDi 90HP from 2007 can be bought on our market at a price of around 5,000, 6,000 euros. The price will depend a lot on the condition of the vehicle, as well as on the equipment package.
