Engines Peugeot Partner, Partner Origin, Partner Tepee
Peugeot Partner is a universal car that is available in two variations: a compact van and a van with an all-metal body. The vehicle has gained popularity in the commercial and family fields. In the first case, a cargo version is preferable, and in the second, a cargo-passenger one. Regardless of the features of the body part, the car has established itself as a reliable and functional vehicle. This result is explained by the harmonious relationship between efficiency, power and capabilities of the internal combustion engine.
History
The start of serial production falls on the summer of 1996, but a full-fledged presentation was held only by the middle of autumn of the same year. The event took place at the Paris International Motor Show. Now the car is widely popular in various countries of Europe, Asia and America - more than 140 thousand “heels” are bought annually, which exceeded all the expectations of developers and forecasters. Now in more detail about the history of the creation and development of the machine.
Cars similar to Partner were manufactured by various car manufacturers around the world, including the USSR and its famous IZH 2715. However, the French brainchild stood out noticeably from other similar models. The main feature of the development is the connection of the cabin and the cargo compartment. Other vehicles can be classified as modular, because the engine compartment, cabin and large "trunk" are separated. Despite this nuance, the fawn is in demand, and the total number of sales exceeded 1 pieces.
Simultaneously with the Peugeot Partner, a similar car from Citroen called the Berlingo was introduced. The cars completely copied each other in terms of basic parameters, and the main differences were in the interior trim, badges and dashboard. Produced by Peugeot at the Portuguese, Spanish, and Argentinean plants, the Ranch model was available for the Italian market.
In 2008, the company introduced the second generation Peugeot Partner called "Teepee". The cargo variation is classified by the VU index. When compared with the previous generation, the novelty has changed dramatically. The designers changed the appearance, decoration and organization of the cabin space, and the modification also touched on the technical part.
Interestingly, even after the appearance of the second generation products, the production of the debut line did not stop. The car was named Partner Origin and its serial deliveries continued until 2011. It should be noted that the demand for the car has not fallen to this day, given that the Partner Tepee is more functional, practical, economical, although its cost is much higher.
Features of power units
The first generation was distinguished by elongated headlights and a massive hood. The cabin comfortably accommodates 5 adults, and the aft volume is 3 m3. Cars from the first batch fell in love with motorists, they appreciated the practicality, functionality, technical characteristics and versatility of the car. The following were used as power units:
- Turbodiesel 1.6 l for 75 l. With.
- Turbodiesel 2.0 l for 90 l. With.
- Gasoline internal combustion engine 1.4 l for 75 l. With.
- Gasoline unit 1.6 l for 109 "horses".
