Historical
: The 504 Berline (sedan) was introduced to the public on the 12th of September 1968. Initially, the model range consisted of a 82 hp carburettor model with 1796 cc 4 cylinder engine and the Injection model with 1796 cc 4 cylinder engine giving 97 bhp. Both models were available with either manual (column gear shift) or automatic (ZF 3HP22) transmission, a sunroof was standard.
At 1969's Geneva salon, the Peugeot 504 Coupe and Cabriolet were presented to the public. In late 1970 the introduction of the new 1971 cc, 93 bhp engine for the Berlline took place, while the Injection received a 104 bhp version of the same unit. Another brand new engine was the 2112 cc Diesel, giving healthy 65 bhp. In addition, all current models got a restyled steering wheel.
In September 1970, Peugeot presented the 504 wagon, being longer than the Berline, also having a longer wheelbase, a higher roof in the back and a solid rear axle with four coil springs. The wagon was available as Familiale, Break and Commerciale.
A Pick-up was added to the 504 family in 1979. It could be ordered in countless different versions, with gas or Diesel engines. After more than three million cars, production of the 504 Berline ceased in Europe in 1983.
