The 2.3 MT is an unboosted Diesel with two valves per cylinder and a front, longitudinal engine position. The 2.5 MT is a Turbo Diesel with the same four-cylinder Inline arrangement, two valves per cylinder, and front, longitudinal position.
Among the Gasoline versions, the 136 hp 2.7 MT uses a Carburetor and two valves per cylinder. The 144 hp 2.7 MT and 144 hp 2.7 AT use Central injection (single-point or single- point). The 136 hp 2.7 AT uses a Carburetor. Both 2.9 AT and 2.9 MT use Distributed injection (multi-point). Engine position is not measured for the 144 hp 2.7 MT, either 2.7 AT, 2.9 AT, or 2.9 MT. Valves per cylinder are not measured for either 2.7 AT or either 2.9 version.
Peugeot 604 Performance, Economy and MPG
Recorded acceleration and maximum speed are available for four Manual versions:
| Version | 0–100 km/h | Top speed | City consumption | Highway consumption | Combined consumption |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.3 MT | 17.5 seconds | 157 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.5 MT | 15.2 seconds | 165 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.7 MT (136 hp) | 10.6 seconds | 182 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.7 MT (144 hp) | 10.4 seconds | 185 km/h | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.7 AT (144 hp) | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.7 AT (136 hp) | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.9 AT | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
| 2.9 MT | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured |
The 144 hp 2.7 MT has the quickest measured acceleration, reaching 100 km/h in 10.4 seconds. It is 0.2 seconds quicker than the 136 hp 2.7 MT, 4.8 seconds quicker than the 2.5 MT, and 7.1 seconds quicker than the 2.3 MT. Its recorded maximum speed of 185 km/h is 3 km/h higher than the 136 hp 2.7 MT, 20 km/h higher than the 2.5 MT, and 28 km/h higher than the 2.3 MT.
City, highway, and combined fuel-consumption figures are not measured for any Peugeot 604 version in this catalogue. Consequently, an MPG figure cannot be stated from the supplied data. CO2 output and environmental class are also not measured for every version.
Peugeot 604 Dimensions and Weight
Body length, width, and height are not measured in the supplied data, so full Peugeot 604 dimensions cannot be stated. Wheel sizes are also not measured for any version.
| Version | Kerb weight | Gross weight | Ground clearance | Fuel tank | Wheel sizes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.3 MT | 1,460 kg | 2,000 kg | not measured | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.5 MT | 1,449 kg | 2,000 kg | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.7 MT (136 hp) | 1,390 kg | 1,960 kg | not measured | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.7 MT (144 hp) | 1,390 kg | 1,960 kg | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.7 AT (144 hp) | not measured | not measured | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.7 AT (136 hp) | not measured | not measured | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.9 AT | not measured | not measured | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
| 2.9 MT | not measured | not measured | 150 mm | 70 L | not measured |
Among versions with recorded weights, the two 2.7 MT variants are the lightest at 1,390 kg. The 2.5 MT weighs 59 kg more, while the 2.3 MT weighs 70 kg more. Gross weight is 1,960 kg for both 2.7 MT versions and 2,000 kg for both Diesel versions.
Every version has Independent, spring front suspension and Dependent, spring rear suspension. Front brakes are Disc across the range. Rear brakes are Disc on the 2.3 MT, 2.5 MT, and both 2.7 MT versions; rear-brake type is not measured for either 2.7 AT, the 2.9 AT, or the 2.9 MT.
Which Peugeot 604 Version to Choose
The 2.3 MT is the lowest-output choice at 80 hp and provides 184 Nm. The 2.5 MT adds Turbo boost, 15 hp, and 22 Nm. It also improves the measured 0–100 km/h time by 2.3 seconds and raises maximum speed by 8 km/h compared with the 2.3 MT.
For the strongest fully measured performance, the 144 hp 2.7 MT is the clearest choice in this dataset. Compared with the 136 hp 2.7 MT, it adds 8 hp and 10 Nm, uses a 5-speed rather than a 4-speed Manual, accelerates to 100 km/h 0.2 seconds sooner, and reaches a maximum speed 3 km/h higher. Both have 2,664 cc Gasoline engines, six cylinders in a V-shaped layout, RWD, a 1,390 kg kerb weight, and a 1,960 kg gross weight.
Buyers seeking an Automatic can compare the 144 hp 2.7 AT, the 136 hp 2.7 AT, and the 150 hp 2.9 AT. All use a 4-speed Automatic and RWD. The 2.9 AT has the highest output of the Automatic versions at 150 hp, which is 6 hp above the 144 hp 2.7 AT and 14 hp above the 136 hp 2.7 AT. However, torque, acceleration, maximum speed, and kerb weight are not measured for these Automatic versions.
The 2.9 MT combines the catalogue’s highest output of 150 hp with a 5-speed Manual and RWD. Its 2,849 cc Gasoline engine uses six cylinders in a V-shaped layout and Distributed injection (multi-point). Performance and weight figures are not measured, so the available data does not support a direct acceleration or handling comparison with the measured 2.7 MT versions.
Interior specifications, reliability information, problems, and sale prices are not measured in the supplied data. The catalogue also identifies the Peugeot 604 only as a Sedan; it does not list a coupe or estate body.
