Technical data
Engine technical data and
towed loads
Engines
The engine characteristics are given in the
vehicle's registration document, as well as in
sales brochures.
The maximum power corresponds to the
value type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for
your vehicle are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also given on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are
valid up to a maximum altitude of 1,000 metres.
The towed load value must be reduced by 10%
for each additional 1,000 metres of altitude.
The maximum authorised nose weight
corresponds to the weight permitted on the
towbar (which can be dismantled with or
without a tool).
GTW: Gross train weight.
High exterior temperatures may result
in a reduction in the performance of
the vehicle to protect the engine. If the
exterior temperature is above 37°C, limit
the towed load.
Towing with a towing vehicle which is only
slightly laden may negatively affect its
handling.
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
When towing, never exceed the speed
of 62 mph (100 km/h) (observe the local
legislation in force).
If the exterior temperature is high, it is
recommended that the engine be allowed
to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle
comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
