The Peugeot 1007 was a Mini MPV produced by the French automobile manufacturer Peugeot from 2004 to 2009. It was based on the same platform as the Peugeot 206 and Citroën C3.

Design

The 1007's unique design features four pillars and two power sliding doors (similar to the Toyota Porte) rather than conventional hinged doors for easier access in cramped spaces and on hills.

The car also features user-swappable Cameleo interior trim pieces.

Background

Another innovation (now discontinued) is the optional "2-Tronic" semi-automatic transmission, also used (under the name "Sensodrive") on the Citroën's C2, C3 and C3 Pluriel (though a similar system was used on the Hudson Commodore of the 1950s, albeit using a vacuum shift), which shares the 206's 1.4 L and 1.6 L petrol engines and 1.4 L and 1.6 L diesel engines. For its size, the 1007 is expensive, with prices around €14,000 / £10,000. EuroNCAP has awarded the vehicle its second best ever rating for adult occupant safety.[1]

Features

The 1007 is the first mainstream car from Peugeot to feature a "double zero" number. In English-speaking countries, the name is marketed with the pronunciation "ten-oh-seven". Originally launched with the pronunciation "one-double-oh-seven" and James Bond-style promotion, Peugeot revised their strategy under pressure from the Bond franchise owners.[2][3] It is also commonly called the "one-thousand-and-seven". In France it is marketed as the "mille-sept".

Discontinuation in Europe

The 1007 was dropped from Peugeot's United Kingdom model line up in 2008, although the car was still in production in mainland Europe until late 2009. No official replacement plans are known at the moment.
