Super TestCar reviews - Peugeot - 206 - XT 5-dr hatchPeugeot modelsEngine6 Feb 2001 By P TIBBLES THE XR and XT models are powered by a 1587cc four-cylinder engine, good for 67kW at 5600rpm and 137Nm at 3000rpm. It's no high-tech powerplant, using eight valves and a single overhead camshaft. Independent performance figures put the manual to 100km/h in 11.7 seconds and 400m in just over 18. It is miserly on fuel - the city cycle is listed at 8.0L/100km, but money saved will go on the extra expense required for premium unleaded. Did you know?The engine has roller-type rocker arms which has reduced friction on the cam and improved fuel consumption, "flash Eprom" type electronic injection and a compact ignition coil block sitting on top of the spark plugsAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
