In 1991, Peugeot needed a car to replace two of its vehicles the 205. After a successful career on the market and the race-tracks, it was a very difficult job. But it had to be done.
When the research for the new model started, the French group started from scratch. All they knew was that the car will have to be a light hatchback with a front-wheel-drive. After putting the bits and pieces together, the design team finished a bodywork that looks good for the market-segment and spacious enough for a young family, with or without children. It was built in 3- and 5-door version. It had to have something for everyone.
The car's shape was simple and with rounded edges, it clearly left the '80s design influences. Its slimmer headlights and the small gap in the grille were a new trend and it was appreciated by its customers.
Inside, the car offered enough room for four adults, regardless if it was in three or five-door configuration. The trunk was not big, but since the rear bench was foldable, that problem was solved. The straight and simple dashboard featured a small center stack for the stereo and the ventilation controls.
The car started its career with a small, 1.1-liter engine with a carburetor, which was replaced later on due to stricter pollution emissions. Over time, it received a choice of engines ranged from 50 hp to 95 hp. A three-door version with a GTI badge on it was introduced after the 1996 facelift.
