About Ashtrays
The Peugeot ashtray is a compartment which can be used as an ashtray or a place to place loose change, keys and other small objects in the front cabin of the car.
The ashtray compartment is usually positioned in the centre column, directly below the centre dashboard, often just in front of the gearstick. This is sometimes the space allocated to cellphone holders, USB ports and auxiliary power points in car's without a designated space for an ashtray. Some cars also have ashtrays fitted into the door panels in the rear of the car, in the centre console in the rear of the car, or ashtrays that are moulded to fit into the cup holder space, for example. Usually the ashtray will have a lid or cover of some sort to help keep the extinguished cigarettes and cigarette smell inside the ashtray. The ashtray will usually have a removable tray that enables it to be emptied and cleaned. Some ashtrays are designed to be fitted into the centre column on the dashboard panel, hidden out of view when closed, and can be accessed by pulling the lid forward and the ashtray, usually with a hinged mechanism, opens outwards. This type of ashtray normally consists of a sturdy metal casing that slots into a specific space on the dashboard and is screwed into place, with an inner removable tray. Some ashtrays are completely separate modules and can be mounted to the dashboard and removed with ease in a matter of seconds. There are a range of ashtray features, such as a built in light, smokeless ashtrays and ashtrays with a remote control opening mechanism. The design, shape, material, finish, opening mechanism, features, colour, location and fitting of the ashtray will all be specific to the make and model of your vehicle.
Having a fully functioning car ash tray, if you smoke in your car, can help to provide a cleaner environment, making it a more pleasant space to be. Fitting a Peugeot ashtray can help to contain the ash, smoke and cigarette butts and can help to avoid stains on upholstery. If you need to replace the ashtray in your car because it's old or parts are broken and it's not functioning properly, buying a Peugeot ashtray will guarantee you get a part that's completely compatible with the make and model of your vehicle.
Peugeot trivia
- In 1913, one of Peugeot's motorsports team, Jules Goux, not only won the Indianapolis 500 but also broke the World Speed Record. He was the first European to win the Indy 500, and the 7.6-litre car was dubbed the fastest vehicle of the time.
- It was Armand Peugeot who turned the company into car manufacturing. He called the company the Société des Automobiles Peugeot (Peugeot Automotive Society) and was the one who approved the famous lion emblem that is still used today.
- Lots of car manufacturers tried building electric vehicles at some point, but Peugeot had more success than others in the 1940s! Fuel restrictions promoted the design, and the car came with four 12-volt batteries that meant a range of 80km on a single charge and a top speed of 32km/h.
- Peugeot has won the European Car of the Year an incredible five times. The earliest win was in 1969, and the latest was as recently as 2017 (the Peugeot 3008).
- Peugeot might not be a name in Formula 1 (they did try a few times, but it never quite worked out), but they have been dominant in other races. In particular, four victories in an incredible 24 hours at Le Mans, and six impressive wins in the Dakar rally, to name just a few.
