Production numbers per type

Presented per type – Sorted per production numbers high – low.

Unfortunately the literature I consulted is contradicting for the actual amounts produced. Sometimes discrepancies are even found within one book where numbers do not add up. So the truth is most likely in between and don’t think we will never know the accurates for sure.

Source 1: La production Peugeot de 1948 à 1968
Source 2: Le guide de la 203 Peugeot

I used source 2 and will mention contradictions from other literature and sources of information.

  1. Thank you for sharing your line drawings and research of one of the most beautiful French cars of its era. It has a style that today’s motor manufacturers cannot copy. I lament the disappearance (almost) of the family sedans. Almost everyone has gone mad and wants a four-wheel-drive or SUV today, and there appears to be a competition to design the ugliest car.

    • Thanks Julien,

      as you can see in the source info they come from very informative books.
      Can highly recommend to buy them if interested in this model
