Peugeot 404

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

"The Peugeot 404 is a large family car produced by French automobile manufacturer Peugeot from 1960 to 1975.

A truck body style variant was marketed until 1988.

The 404 was manufactured under licence in various African countries until 1991 (in Kenya) and was manufactured in Argentina by Safrar/Sevel in El Palomar, in Québec, Canada at the St-Bruno-de-Montarville SOMA Ltd. plant and in Chile by Automotores Franco Chilena S.A. in Los Andes.

 

Styled by Pininfarina, the 404 was offered initially as a saloon, estate, and pickup.

A convertible was added in 1962, and a coupé in 1963.

The 404 was fitted with a 1.6 L petrol engine, with either a Solex carburetor or Kugelfischer mechanical fuel injection or a 1.9 L diesel engine available as options.

Introduced at the Paris Motor Show as an option was the inclusion of a 3-speed ZF automatic transmission, similar to the unit already offered on certain BMW models, as an alternative to the standard column-mounted manual unit.

 

Popular as a taxicab, the 404 enjoyed a reputation for durability and value.

Peugeot's French production run of 1,847,568 404s ended in 1975. A total of 2,885,374 units had been produced worldwide at the end of production."
