| | History of Peugeot (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | Peugeot gave up the Daimler two cylinder vertical engine for the Peugeot two cylinder horizontal model, which he placed in the rear of the car, thus lending the vehicle an original and hitherto unseen shape, altogether different from "hippomobiles" (till now, car bodies had always suggested something of the horse carriage in their shape). |
 | | Peugeot and Indenor merged, to form a new company called La Société des Automobiles Peugeot, whose purpose was the construction and sale of cars and spare parts, all manufactured in the Sochaux, Montbéliard, Bart, Mulhouse, Dijon, Lille, Saint-Etienne, Vesoul and La Garenne factories. |
 | | Peugeot brought out a limited edition, the 306 Eden Park, for the France-Wales rugby match during the Five Nation Tournament in the Parc des Princes, to reinforce the car's sporting image. |
