The Peugeot 202 was an automobile from Peugeot. Considered to be the first supermini car^{[citation needed]}, production of the car ran between 1938 and 1942 and then, after a brief production run of 20 in early 1945, restarted production in mid-1946. It was sold until 1949, by when it had been replaced by the 203. It was powered by a 1133 cc water-cooled engine giving 30 hp (22 kW) at 4000 rpm and a top speed of approximately 100 km/h (62 mph). 104,126 were built, as it was found to be popular in developing nations.

[edit] Design

The placing of the headlamps behind the front grill appears to have inspired Peugeot's car design competition winner, the Peugeot 4002.
