It took 320 technicians and engineers, and three years' effort to bring this project to success. Due to its utility nature, Peugeot Hoggar had to comply with even stricter specs than those imposed on private cars, in order to be approved. In all, 573 major tests were carried out, corresponding to thousands of different tests. Overall, the Peugeot Hoggar will have covered over a million kilometres before going on sale.
Peugeot Hoggar puts its traditional knowledge of utility vehicles to good use and, by mixing the ideas, offers a model suited to the requirements of the Brazilian customers, in a new market segment. The developers were keen to produce a very rigid structure and a more strong suspension system, designed to achieve optimum performance, whatever the vehicle's load, while allowing a level of comfort and driving pleasure worthy of a saloon.
Peugeot Hoggar has sufficient interior space and the largest load space in its segment, with a volume of 1,151 litres, able to take a live load of 742 kg.
The Peugeot Hoggar will be launched in Brazil on 15th May 2010, in three equipment levels and two Flex Fuel engine options: 1.4 and 1.6.
