The presentation of the Peugeot 605 took place in the fall of 1989 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, but the car went on sale only in 1990.

The predecessor of this model is the Peugeot 604. The 605 inherited a platform from it, though not in its pure form, since the previous version was rear-wheel drive, and it was originally decided to equip the Peugeot 605 with front-wheel drive.

Then, in the early 90s, the car became the largest model of the French company. Dimensions Peugeot 605 (4765x1800x1410 mm), wheelbase 2800 mm and a small 10-centimeter ground clearance. Radius timesthe gate is neither less nor more than 12 meters.

The main "highlight" of the Peugeot 605 was the revolutionary principle of the body layout - with the passenger compartment shifted close to the front axle. This solution was named Cab-forward ("carried forward salon"). A large wheelbase has a positive effect on ride comfort, passengers located closer to the center of the car on uneven roads experience less inconvenience, and the rear wheel niches removed from the passenger compartment allow the rear sofa to be installed a few centimeters lower, which increasesthere is space above the heads.

However, after the modernization, the situation improved significantly, and the car began to meet all the standards of that time.

There are several types of equipment:

SL - the simplest, with fabric upholstery and the complete absence of any electric drives

SR and SV - as a rule, they had power accessories and a steering wheel adjustable in height and length

SVE - the richest version, appeared after restyling. Equipped exclusively with a 2.9-liter V6 engine with an automatic transmission and an hourit had a leather interior.

Peugeot 605 was equipped with gasoline engines of only two volumes: 2.0 liters, or 3.0 liters. But in various modifications. The weakest was the 2.0-liter 8-valve 108 hp carburetor unit. (designated XU102C). The same engine, but with a mono injection system, was already developing 114 hp. (XU10M), and with multipoint injection, its power is 121 hp. (XU10J2). Then, in terms of the number of "horses", there is a 16-valve engine (XU10J4R) with a capacity of 133 hp, but the most greasy unit from the 2.0-liter family is an 8-valve engine withturbocharged (147 hp, designated as XU10J2TE).

(ZPJ), and its 24-valve version already produces 200 hp. (ZPJ4). By the way, both of these engines do not have a timing belt in their design, but a durable chain. The third version of the 2.9 liter V6 engine. with a capacity of 190 hp. (ES9J4) is a relatively new unit in design, it can be found only on cars produced after 1997.

VstDiesel versions of the Peugeot 605 are also spoken. One of the units with a volume of 2.1 liters. without turbocharging, it produces only 80 hp. (XUD11A). The same design, but turbocharged (XUD11BTE) produces 109 hp. There is also a third diesel engine (DK5 ATEL) with a capacity of 2.4 liters and a capacity of 129 hp.

A few words about the gearbox. Most Peugeot 605 cars have a 5-speed manual transmission, but there are also examples equipped with a four-speed "automatic".

For the first time in the history of the company, this model uses a rear multi-link independent suspension on a singlenth transverse and double triangular wishbones. Front suspension - classic McPherson wishbones. Both suspensions are mounted on subframes, both have anti-roll bars, which are positively influenced by rubber bushings, which provide the so-called steering effect in turns. Thanks to all these features of the suspension device "605" was distinguished by excellent smoothness and reliable stability on the road.

Next, andThe last, the stage of rejuvenation of the Peugeot 605 was 1997, when the Pleade equipment appeared as a base. Next in terms of ascent were Executive, SV and Signature modifications.
