Peugeot does not build many cars like the Peugeot 202: a 4-door sedan (car) / saloon / 2-door convertible (car) / cabriolet / 4-door convertible (car) / cabriolet / 2-door pickup truck / pickup with 1133 cc I4, built from 1938 to 1949 when streamlining and independent suspension were arriving together.
How it came about
The Peugeot 202 is a supermini developed and designed by the French car manufacturer Peugeot. Production of the car ran between 1938 and 1942 and then, after a brief production run of 20 in early 1945, restarted in mid-1946. It was sold until 1949, by which time it had been replaced by the 203.
The hardware
Under the skin sits 1133 cc I4. Kerb weight is 890 kg. The gearbox is a 3-speed manual with synchromesh on ratios 2 and 3.. The layout matters: a front engine drives the rear wheels, the classic proportion — long bonnet, cabin set back — that most people picture when they picture a sports saloon or a grand tourer. The wheelbase is 2450 mm (berline) / 2650 mm (hatch). These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Family and rivals
Where it sits in Peugeot's history is not in doubt: the Peugeot 201 came before it; the Peugeot 203 followed it; it was built at Sochaux (Sochaux Plant), France. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Volkswagen Beetle, the Lincoln Continental, the Fiat 2800. Its Peugeot stablemates include the Peugeot Onyx and the Peugeot Pars.
The money
There is no federal ownership record for the Peugeot 202 — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
