Peugeot 309

The Peugeot 309 was a small family car manufactured between 1985 and 1993 in England and France. It was originally intended to be badged as a Talbot and, as development progressed, to be called the Talbot Arizona. It was the replacement for the Talbot Horizon, which had started life as a Chrysler in Britain and a Simca in France, also being built in several guises for the American market.

In 1985, the PSA Group decided to discontinue the Talbot brand, with the last Talbot passenger vehicle being the Samba, and market the Arizona as the Peugeot 309 instead. The Talbot brand was phased out completely when Talbot Express production stopped in the early 1990s.
