The Peugeot 4007 is a compact crossover SUV produced by Mitsubishi Motors for the French automobile marque Peugeot, between July 2007 and April 2012.[2] The equivalent Citroën badge-engineered version was the C-Crosser. Both were produced in Mitsubishi's Nagoya Plant in Okazaki, Japan, based on the second-generation Outlander. It was shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2007.
Together, the 4007 and C-Crosser were the first Japan-produced cars sold under any French brand.[citation needed] They had their sales target of 30,000 units per year.[3] It was officially launched on 12 July 2007.
Both vehicle had been planned to be assembled in the Nedcar plant in Born, Netherlands for the European market, however the plan was postponed indefinitely as sales of the two models fell below the target of 30,000 units.[4][5]
