THE final silhouette in the Peugeot 207 range will be launched in the UK next month - the Peugeot 207 SW.

It is a true Peugeot SW with full length "Cielo" glass panoramic roof and an innovative rear seat folding mechanism which provides a perfectly flat loading area when extra luggage space is required.

Sharing the same wheelbase as the 207 five-door hatchback but with an increased length of 119 mm and 38 mm extra height the 207 SW provides more rear headroom and interior space. This extra length also creates a larger rear luggage space.

It will be available at launch with four engine options, two HDi diesels, 1.6-litre 90 horsepower and 1.6-litre 110 horsepower and two petrol engines developed as part of the co-operation with the BMW Group. The first petrol engine option is a new 1.4-litre 95 horsepower engine and the second the current 1.6-litre 120 horsepower engine found in the 207 CC and 207 hatchback range. Both these two engines benefit from the latest engine technology, which ensures low fuel consumption and emissions, without restricting overall engine performance.

All engines will be fitted with a manual five-speed gearbox with ratios selected to match the individual engine characteristics.

The 207 SW will be available in two trim levels, S and Sport.
