On its launch in 1972, the Peugeot 104 was not one of the first small hatchbacks produced in Europe, being a four-door sedan until a facelift in 1976, when the hatchback was added, making it easily the first with five doors. With power from 1.0 to 1.4 L engines, it gave good levels of economy and refinement as well as having an impressive chassis which made ride and handling excellent. Though the 104 was produced in various forms from 1972 to 1988, the heart of the car was the 1.0 L Douvrin engine engine, which was jointly developed with
Renault. This used a transmission-in-sump arrangement, similar to that used by the British Motor Corporation in the likes of the
Mini. The 104 was sold as a two and four-door hatchback or
sedan, although the basic silhouette of the car was the same regardless of version.
By 1975, Peugeot had taken over
Citroën, and the 104 bodyshell formed the basis of the 602 Cubic centimetre Flat twin engined
Citroën LN. This car was fitted with the more modern 652 cc engine of the
Citroën Visa in 1983 to become the
Citroën LNA, before production finally ceased in 1985.
Following the acquisitions of Citroën in 1976 and Chrysler Europe in 1978, various rebadged versions of the 104 appeared. The Citroën version was known as the Citroën LN, while another version of the car (with more differentiated styling and featuring a cabrio version) was released as Talbot Samba, Talbot being the brand PSA used for the rebranding of former Chrysler Europe models. The mechanical configuration of the 104 was also used in the Citroën Visa.
The Peugeot 104 was one of the most successful European small cars of the 1970s but it was starting to show its age against more modern rivals by the turn of the 1980s. When Peugeot launched the stylish all-new
Peugeot 205 in 1983, the 104 was withdrawn from most European markets. But it continued in France as a budget choice until production finally ceased in May 1988 after 16 years in which 1,624,992 Peugeots 104 were built.
