The mid-size sedan Peugeot 405 was introduced in 1997 as a direct successor for both the smaller 305 and the bigger 505. The result was one of the most successful Peugeot sedans ever made.
With a sharp-looking and sporty style, the 405 sedan was an instant hit on the market and was the best-sold sedan in its class on several markets. One year later, in 1988, the station-wagon version was launched. It was another hit for Peugeot, who was one of the most appreciated French station-wagon producers.
Unlike some of the other Peugeot station-wagons, the 405 didn't offer the choice of e third row of seats in the luggage area. The angular shape of the car was similar to the sedan up to the B-pillar, with rectangular headlights. The designers found a way to fit the same rear doors from the sedan on the station-wagon and that led to serious cost-cutting.
Inside, the car featured the same angular shapes for the dash and other interior trim elements. The extended roofline allowed a better headroom for the rear passengers. The rear bench featured a foldable seatback, which allowed the expansion of the trunk.
Under the hood, the 405 Station-wagon featured some of the engines from the sedan, but not all of them. The top of the range version was a 1.9-liter unit with 125 hp, while the sedan was offered with better engines.
