Peugeot Launches 107 Sportium Special Edition in the UK

Peugeot has just introduced a sporty version of the 107 equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged unit to deliver over 200 hp in order to celebrate their podium finish at Le Mans this year. Just kidding, the 107 Sportium Special Edition is just one of those versions that automakers regularly introduce with more equipment to attract customers.

The 107 Sportium Special Edition, based on the standard 107 Urban model, is available with a 1.0-litre petrol engine and five-speed manual gearbox. The unit produces 68 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and can push the little 107 to a top speed of 100 mph, while the sprint to 62 mph takes a lack-luster 14.2 seconds.

With CO2 emissions of 103g/km and a combined fuel consumption of 62.77 mpg (UK) it should help you go further on your pound. The good news is that, even though it doesn’t have 200+ horsepower, it does come with a decent on the road price and it should be cheap to ensure.

The Urban trim level already brings electric power steering, four airbags, remote control central locking, electric front windows, height adjustable steering, stereo radio / single CD player with MP3 socket, ABS, EBFD, CSC, colour-coded door handles, and the Sportium badge will add the following extra standard specification: tinted rear windows, 14” alloy wheels, air-conditioning and “white” door mirror covers and interior detailing.

The Peugeot 107 Sportium comes either as three- or five-door model and is available in five exterior body colours: Laser Red, Citrus Yellow, Diamond White, Zircon Grey and Electra Blue.

On the road prices start from £9,945 for the 3-door version and £10,295 for the 5-door model. Our verdict: It looks good, but it could do better with some chrome wheels!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
