Encyclopedic overview
The Peugeot 206 is a supermini car (B-segment) designed and produced by the French car manufacturer Peugeot from 1998 to 2024 as a replacement to the Peugeot 205. Developed under the codename T1, it was released in September 1998 in hatchback form, which was followed by coupé cabriolet (206 CC) in September 2000, station wagon (206 SW) in September 2001, and a sedan version (206 SD, which is an abbreviation of the Iranian word sandogh-dar, "sedan", made, produced and sold in Iran) in September 2005, before being replaced by the 207 in April 2006.
Its facelifted version was initially launched in South America in September 2008, and in China in November 2008, in hatchback, sedan and station wagon body styles, and marketed as the 207 Compact, and as the 207 respectively. This version was subsequently launched in Europe in February 2009, only in hatchback form and marketed as the 206+. In South America, where it was assembled in Argentina as well as Brazil, it continued to be offered as the 207 Compact until January 2017, and also in China, both under the 207 nameplate and as the Citroën C2.
