At the Paris Motor Show in October 1948 , Peugeot unveils the 203, it's first totally new postwar car, and adopts a unique model policy.The 203 has a rare feature for a standardised production car : 4 cylinders with hemispherical Alpax cylinder heads and V-inclined valve heads with spark plugs fitted in a central well. Structurally, this is the first time that Peugeot offers a monocoque shell.
The 203 in the sedan shape was a best seller. The 203 Cabriolet is much rarer.
