Not to be outdone by the 308 RC Z, the 407 Coupé is being updated – and the big news is that Peugeot has dropped petrol engines altogether from the range!Â
Cars will be offered only with a revised 163bhp 2.0-litre HDi diesel – up from 136bhp – or a 3.0-litre V6 HDi, which produces 241bhp and 450Nm of torque. The latter gives a 0-62mph time of 7.7 seconds – that’s four-tenths quicker than the outgoing 2.7-litre oil-burner.Â
The styling has been mildly revised, with a new chrome strip on the side windows, and Bluetooth is connectivity as standard. Prices start at £22,990 for the 2.0-litre HDi, and rise to £27,490 for the V6.
