The Peugeot 203 is a medium sized car
which was produced by the French manufacturer Peugeot between 1948
and 1960.
The car was exhibited at the Paris Motor Show in 1947, but by then
had already been under development for more than five years. Volume
manufacturing was initially hampered by strikes and shortages of
materials, but production got under way in 1948.
The 203 was Peugeot's first new model launched after World War II.
During its twelve year production run nearly 700,000 203s of all
variants rolled off the assembly line in Sochaux, France. Between
the demise of the 202 in 1949 and the launch of the 403 in 1954, the
203 was the only model produced by Peugeot.
