ALL AUTOCARS

Peugeot 4007 DCS Automatic will be presented for the first time at Frankfurt Motor Show and it is now now available to order. The 4007 range starts at £23,345 with the DCS automatic. The semi-automatic gearbox chosen for the 4007 is equipped with six speeds to make best use of the performance from the 2.2-litre HDi FAP 156 bhp engine. The choice of wet clutch technology has been favoured to transmit the generous amount of torque produced by this engine (380Nm at 2000rpm).

A versatile gearbox, the DCS 6-speed box can be managed in two ways: in automatic mode with two operating programmes (Drive or Sport) or in semi-automatic mode (Sequential) by using the gear selection paddles located behind the steering wheel.

This new version, to be presented for the first time at next week’s Frankfurt Motor Show, is now available to order. The 4007 range starts at £23,345 (on-the-road) with the DCS automatic, with the SE trim, start from £24,545 (on-the-road).
