French car brands include Bugatti, DS, Renault, Peugeot, Citroën, Talbot, etc. Peugeot's models include: Peugeot 408, Peugeot 307, Peugeot 207, Peugeot 301, Peugeot 206, etc. Taking the 2020 Peugeot 408 as an example, its body structure is a 4-door 5-seater sedan, with body dimensions of: length 4750mm, width 1820mm, height 1488mm, wheelbase of 2730mm, and a trunk capacity of 455L. The 2020 Peugeot 408 is equipped with a 1.2L turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 136PS, maximum power of 100kW, maximum torque of 230Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.

I've recently become fascinated with studying French cars and discovered several classic brands that are particularly interesting. Peugeot started out making pepper mills, and now their cars like the 308 and 5008 are really enjoyable to drive with stylish designs; Citroën is most famous for its hydropneumatic suspension - I rode in a friend's old C5, and it was incredibly comfortable over speed bumps. Renault sells extremely well in Europe, with small cars like the Clio seen everywhere in Paris, and the Mégane RS remains a front-wheel-drive hot hatch. At the high end, there's Bugatti - their Chiron can reach 480 km/h with an all-carbon-fiber body, which is absolutely insane. There's also a niche brand Alpine, whose revived A110 sports car weighs only 1080 kg, a pure driving machine. DS has now become independent, and the new DS9 features pearl-stitched interiors - the French really know how to play with romance.
