Peugeot Service

Peugeot began its tradition of fine French innovation in 1810, when brothers Jean-Pierre II and Jean-Frederic converted their father’s grain mill into a steal foundry. They started producing coffee grinders in 1840, and were quickly followed by band saws, springs, umbrella frames, wire wheels, and bicycles.

It wasn’t until 1890 however that Peugeot produced its first car. Armand Peugeot had been involved in the production of Peugeot bicycles, and met with Gottlieb Daimler to discuss the viability of motor car production at Peugeot. Once convinced of his pursuits, Armand created Peugeot’s first motor car, the Type 2 – a four-wheeled, petrol-driven vehicle that also featured a Daimler internal combustion engine. The Type 2 was far more sophisticated than many of its contemporaries, with three-point suspension and sliding transmission – the finest French innovation Peugeot would become so well known for.

Armand continued to work with Serpollet, Daimler and also Michelin to ensure that Peugeot stayed abreast of industrial advancements and new technologies, becoming the first manufacturer to fit its cars with rubber tires in 1895. In 1896 Peugeot were producing its own engines under their new Société Anonyme des Automobiles Peugeot, and in 1899, one quarter of all cars sold were from Peugeot.

Now more than 200 years on, the Peugeot name remains synonymous with innovation and diversity. Peugeot is bringing the automobile into the future by taking up new challenges posed by the environment and mobility. Peugeot continues to meet new challenges with the release of the 208, the latest 308, the 3008 HYbrid4, the 508 RXH and the 4008.
