Another innovation (now discontinued) is the optional "2 Tronic" semi automatic transmission, also used (under the name "Sensodrive") on the Citroën's C2, C3 and C3 Pluriel (though a similar system was used on the Hudson Commodore of the 1950s, albeit using a vacuum shift), which shares the 206's 1.4 L and 1.6 L petrol engines and 1.4 L and 1.6 L diesel engines.

For its size, the 1007 was expensive, with prices around €14,000 / £10,000. EuroNCAP awarded the vehicle its second best ever rating for adult occupant safety.[1]

The 1007 is the first mainstream car from Peugeot to feature a "double zero" number. In English speaking countries, the name was marketed with the pronunciation "ten oh seven".

Originally launched with the pronunciation, "one double oh seven", and James Bond style promotion, Peugeot revised their strategy, under pressure from the Bond franchise owners.[2][3] It is also commonly called the "one thousand and seven". In France, it was marketed as the "mille sept".

The 1007 was dropped from Peugeot's model line up in the United Kingdom in 2008, although the car was still in production in mainland Europe until the end of 2009. The indirect successor is the Peugeot 108.
