The Peugeot 1007 is a compact three-door vehicle manufactured by Peugeot between 2004 and 2009, distinguished by its customizable interior trim and a four-pillar structure featuring dual power-operated sliding doors. It utilizes the same platform as the Peugeot 206, Citroën C2, and Citroën C3. Sales commenced throughout Europe in April 2005.

Background

The 1007 originated from the Sésame concept car unveiled at the 2002 Paris Motor Show. It offered an optional "2-Tronic" automated manual gearbox, also known under the name "Sensodrive" on Citroën’s C2, C3, and C3 Pluriel models, all powered by the 206’s 1.4 L and 1.6 L petrol and diesel engines.

With a price point near €14,000 / £10,000, the 1007 was priced relatively high for its category. Nonetheless, it achieved Euro NCAP’s second-best rating for adult occupant protection. Depending on the market, it was positioned as a supermini, urban hatchback, city car, or compact MPV; French press often labeled it a petit monospace or microspace. Designed by Pininfarina—who regarded it as an MPV—Peugeot described the model as a berline monocorps (one-box vehicle), highlighting its adaptability for city driving.

Features

The 1007 marked Peugeot's first widely available model to carry a "double zero" badge. In English-speaking regions, it was sold under the name "ten oh seven."

Initially launched with marketing phrased as "one double oh seven," inspired by James Bond themes, Peugeot altered this following objections from the Bond franchise rights holders. The car is also known as "one thousand and seven," while in France it is promoted as the "mille sept."

Discontinuation in Europe

Peugeot withdrew the 1007 from its UK range in 2008 but maintained production for continental Europe until late 2009.

Reception

Although the concept version received favorable reviews, the production model of the 1007 became one of Peugeot’s most significant commercial disappointments. Weak sales contributed to an estimated loss of €15,380 per unit manufactured.
