Developed in a joint-venture with Toyota, sharing both experience and costs, three vehicles came two life in 2005: the Peugeot 107, the Toyota Aygo and the Citroen C1.
The trio was built in the Czech Republic and sold on the European market in the mini (A) segment.

Considering the Euro 5 emission standards starting with 2009, the carmakers had to refreshed their products. Peugeot refreshed the 107 as well, starting with 2008. Along with the introduction of cleaner engines, the Peugeot 107 received a redesigned, fresher exterior look.

The French brand adopted a feline-like shape for the car’s headlights, with the main lamp bigger and cutting a slice from the hood. The front bumper was redesigned and featured fake side-scoops on the outer sides. Unlike the non facelifted version, the vertical bar placed in the middle of the grille was painted in silver.

Inside, depending on the trim-level, the 107 featured a tachometer mounted aside from the center speedometer, installed on the steering column assembly moving along when the driver adjusted its position. The center stack’s simple layout allowed easy use of the HVAC controls—the 107 featured power windows at the front and a compass-based system for the rear ones.

Under the hood, Toyota provided the 1.0-liter gasoline engine and PSA (Peugeot-Citroen Group) the 1.4-diesel version. Both versions were paired as standard to a 5-speed manual, while a 5-speed automated version was available as an option. The latter consisted of a manual gearbox and a computer-controlled clutch-actuator system.
