Peugeot do Brasil has borrowed a name previously used in Europe for its first limited-edition 206 - the Quiksilver, writes Rogério Louro. The new model marks the first year of sales of the compact hatchnack line and offers two engine options: Renault’s one-litre 16-valve with 70 bhp or PSA’s 110 bhp 1.6-litre 16-valver, both, like the car, made in Brazil.

The 206 accounted for 90.8% of Peugeot sales in the first half of 2002.
