Peugeot has launched its "most economical" car in the UK.

The remodelled 107's 1.0-litre engine can boast fuel economy of 62.7 mpg – which may interest car insurance customers looking for ways to save money.

It is also produces the lowest amounts of CO2 – 106 g/km – of all Peugeot models and scored four stars in EuroNCAP tests for adult protection.

The exterior design has been reviewed, with one of the three available trim levels, the special edition Verve, available in new Mandalin Orange paintwork. Electra Blue has also been added to the 107's range of colours for the other two options, Urban and Urban Lite.

Drivers who choose the Urban will get electric windows and remote central door locking, while the top of the range Verve model also includes 14-inch alloy wheels, a rev counter and air conditioning as standard.

Inside, the trim has been redesigned to complement the colours and style of the body, while the heating and ventilation system has been given a translucent orange back-lit panel.

This year marks the 120th anniversary of Peugeot's first car.
