Peugeot 404 camionette 1967 - 1988

The Peugeot 404 van is an essential reference in the light commercial vehicle segment, embodying more than six decades of reliability and versatility in service of professionals and craftsmen. Launched in 1960 alongside the 404 sedan, this van quickly established itself as a major player in the French and African market, thanks to its generous load capacity and robust construction suited to the most demanding operating conditions. The Peugeot 404 van story is characterized by its exceptional longevity and progressive evolution: the original model offered a single or double cab with a utility platform, while successive generations integrated mechanical improvements, better ergonomics and diesel engines that gradually became the segment standard. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the Peugeot 404 van model reinforced its dominance against competitors such as the Renault 4 Van or Citroën Type H, by focusing on the durability of its mechanics and the modularity of its cargo. The Peugeot 404 van generations benefited from discreet but pertinent facelifts, moving from streamlined 1960s lines to more rounded forms in the following decades, while retaining the functional DNA of the vehicle. Although its commercial production largely ended in Europe and Asia, the Peugeot 404 van specification sheet remains a documented reliability reference, with millions of units still in circulation and particularly sought after on the used market for restorations and collector uses.
