Peugeot has announced the price of the newest addition to the 207 range, the GT 1.6 Turbo.
It's the first 207 to be fitted with one of the Peugeot / BMW developed 1.6 petrol engines, the 1.6 litre turbocharged direct injection petrol engine, producing 150bhp at 5,800 rpm and 180lb-ft of torque at 1,400 rpm. In its official release, Peugeot declined to figure the car - maybe it's got a lot of weight to pull...
Available as a 3 door model and in GT trim only, the 207 GT 1.6 Turbo will have a comprehensive specification including: six airbags, ABS, EBFD, EBA, ESP, tyre pressure sensors, two Isofix three-point rear child seat mountings, electric windows, Thatcham class 1 alarm / deadlocks, automatic static directional headlamps and wipers, dual zone climate control air conditioning, panoramic “Cielo” glass roof with sunblind, 17-inch alloy wheels, steering column adjustable for reach and rake, height adjustable driver and passenger seats and half leather trim.
Not since the Peugeot 205 T16 has the French company produced a petrol turbocharged supermini, and next year will see the launch of a more powerful turbocharged 207.
The GT 1.6 Turbo will go on sale in the UK in November 2006, priced at £14,345 on-the-road.
