At the Geneva Motor Show Peugeot unveils the 207 SW Outdoor Concept, an all-terrain vehicle oriented to open-air and leisure activities which previews the forthcoming 207 SW model.

Peugeot 207 SW Outdoor ConceptThe 207 Outdoor Concept will be displayed together with the new 4007 SUV and the 207 CC.

The concept's personality is displayed through its modern styling, combined with its functional features.

Exterior design

The 207 SW Outdoor exterior design combines the front of the 207 with a new original design of the rear end, whilst at the same time retaining the character of the original Peugeot design.

The line of the side windows flows up to the rear quarter panel where the arrow design is similar to that found on the 407 SW and 1007.

The large rear lights strengthen this association by, starting further up from the rear wings, and following the bodyline, in perfect balance with the stylish front headlights.

From the back these lights visually emphasise the vehicle’s larger rear design, which provides a large loading area when the tailgate is opened.

The rear tailgate glass can also be opened independently of the tailgate as it is hinged on the two visual hinges.

The bodywork mouldings (the wing extensions, sill mouldings) are all in a bluish chrome colour and circumvent the body shell, highlighting the exclusive appearance of the model whilst at the same time equally expressing its spirit of adventure.

Also of note on the vehicle as a whole is the use of bright orange to highlight items such as the brake calipers, which brightens the blue shade of the body shell “02” and the bluish chrome detailing.

Finally, the roof bars define the large panoramic glass sunroof in a very original way.

Interior design

The interior ambience is strengthened by the brightness created by the glass roof.

The fascia, with its light and flowing design, is common with the rest of the 207 range, and here is trimmed in a bluish light grey leather, to match the bodywork.

The seats and the door panels are trimmed in a “technical material” (parachute silk), luminous, creating a freshness and greater intensity to the interior.

The use of fluorescent orange netting creates a dynamic feel, visually creating a link with the exterior of the vehicle.

On the rear of the front seats, the same netting can be found for the seat pockets specially developed for storing various objects, which would be found in this type of concept (torch, bottle, map, compass…)

The vehicle’s modularity enables all kinds of sporting equipment to be easily loaded, thanks to a system that is as simple as it is ingenious– the rear seats have been designed to fold down in one movement to, give a perfectly flat space, the seat disappears into the floor at the point of the folded backrest.

Technical features

The car is equipped with a 1.6 litre HDi 16v diesel engine with particulate filter system (DPFS). It delivers a maximum torque of 240 Nm at 1750 rpm, (260 Nm with the overboost), and a maximum power of 80kW, around 110 bhp, at 4000 rpm.
