The Peugeot 407 has certainly created an impact since its launch, with striking looks and an impressive 5-star safety rating. Complimented by benchmark equipment levels that rival much more expensive models, the 407 represents fantastic value for money. And its popularity is set to expand with the introduction of the new 407 HDi.

407 HDi – Every Revolution Begins on the Streets…

The Peugeot 407 HDi embodies the latest in diesel engine technology, offering outstanding performance in terms of dynamism, driving economy and respect for the environment.

With increasing attention on the diesel segment, the 407 HDi clearly reinforces Peugeot’s traditional leadership of this growing market segment. A world leader in Common Rail HDi technology, Peugeot also has a long and proud history of diesel motoring in Australia, stretching right back to 1978 and the Peugeot 504 GLD.

The Peugeot 407 HDi, priced from only $45,990, is the car that has the potential to revolutionise the way Australians think about Diesel. It is an impressive vehicle, bristling with technology and standard equipment, not to mention its futuristic looks. And with dynamic performance and clean emissions, this car has all the credentials to dispel the long held misconceptions about diesel powered cars.

The Peugeot HDi advantage – Driving Enjoyment and Respect for the Environment

The 407 HDi is powered by a responsive 2.0 litre turbo charged-engine, equipped with a particulate emission filter (FAP) developing 100 kW and an amazing 320 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm. With a torque figure comparable to a 3.6 litre V6 petrol engine, the HDi 407 delivers a dynamic driving experience without penalising you at the bowser.

Employing the very latest in common rail, high-pressure direct injection technology, among its outstanding features are 16-valves for optimal induction and exhaust; an intercooler for greater combustion efficiency; and a variable geometry turbocharger.

Furthermore, the 407 HDi is compliant with strict ‘Euro 4 legislation’, as it eliminates particles by means of its particulate filter resulting in a very clean emission, and has low outputs of harmful greenhouse gasses (CO2 155 g/km).

In the future, the 407 will benefit from other Diesel HDi engines, in particular the 2.7 litre V6 HDi engine, the next stage in the Ford/PSA development partnership.

Outstanding Fuel Economy

Driving a Peugeot HDi is one of the ways increasing numbers of consumers are coping with the ever increasing price of fuel.

The 407 HDi has impressive consumption figures of 7.7 litres per 100km in the city cycle, and 4.9 litres per 100km on the highway. With a combined cycle of 5.9 litres per 100km, a range of 1000 km’s is achievable on the car’s 66 litre tank.
