A six-speed dual clutch semi-automatic gearbox has been added to Peugeot's 4007 SUV. Several days ago, sister firm Citroen added the same DCS transmission to its 2010 C-Crosser. In the Peugeot 4007 DCS, it will be mated to a 156bhp 2.2-liter diesel unit, with combined fuel consumption of 38.7mpg and CO2 emissions 192g/km. It also has a dual clutch system that enables the 4007 DCS to be operated as an auto or manually with gear shifts delivered via steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. The new 'box is available on the seven seat SE and GT versions of the 4007, which will be distinguished from manual models by new rear twin exhausts. Revisions to the interior include a new LCD screen and changes to the trim around the instruments. 4007 is similarly priced as Citroen's new C-Crosser fitted with the DCS system, starting from £24,545. Official launching will be at theFrankfurt Motor Show next week.
