The 307 was launched as a three- and five-door
hatchback, though in February 2002, the range of the 307 was expanded with the introduction of two
estates, the
307 Break and
307 SW. Externally the two estates are almost identical, however, the SW version has silver roof bars and a three/four length panoramic glass roof as standard equipment. Internally though, the 307 Break is a conventional estate, while the SW features an optional third row of removable seats, so it is more flexible due to its MPV-like configuration. The SW exists, because Peugeot did not develop a
compact MPV spinoff, as Citroën did with the
Xsara Picasso, instead preferring to offer a more flexible version, but maintaining the style and road manners of an estate. Unlike the
previous model, there was no saloon version, but one was designed for emerging markets, such as China and the market in Latin America, as saloons were much preferred to hatchbacks. The
307 CC, a
cabriolet with a
retractable hardtop, was launched in August 2003, to compete against the new European
coupé cabriolets. A new, four-door saloon version of the 307 was launched in China in June 2004. The 307 is produced for the market in
China by the
Dongfeng Peugeot-Citroën Automobile, a
joint venture with the
PSA Group. This model was also built in
Argentina between May 2006 and November 2010. It was also exported to Brazil, although sales were never satisfactory in either country. In 2006, the Argentinian version contained 60% local parts. Chinese production ended in 2014. ==Engines==
