Peugeot's 200th Anniversary
We celebrate Peugeot's bicentenary with a look back at the firm's most significant models
Exactly 200 years ago the two Peugeot brothers, Jean-Pierre and Jean-Frédéric established the Peugeot company when they converted a corn mill into a steel mill to make the most of the industrial revolution which was gathering pace.
Since then, Peugeot and later the Lion badge have been associated with saws, tools, pepper mills, coffee grinders, bicycles, motorcycles and scooters. But its cars that really made Peugeot a household name.
You don't survive 200 years without being an innovator - and Peugeot has had its fair share of world firsts. Watch the video above for a run down of the firm's most significant models and click on the articles to the right for more details.
But it's not just on the road where Peugeot has forged its reputation - it has a rich motorsport history too. In fact it competed in what's widely regarded to be the world's first ever motor race, the Paris-Bordeux-Paris Trial in 1895. And just a few weeks ago it was tearing up the tarmac at the Nurburgring 24hr Race in a pair of race-prepared RCZs.
