Note: Around the mid-1970s, the project to create the successor to the Peugeot 504, a car with huge sales volumes, was initiated. This new vehicle aimed to continue the legacy and tradition of the French manufacturer in the large sedan sector. Pininfarina was once again responsible for the design, introducing prototypes in February 1976 that hinted at the definitive shape of the new Peugeot, showing stylistic similarities with the flagship 604. The intention was to produce a car that, while replacing the 504, would also appeal to a slightly higher market segment, particularly in terms of comfort and engine range, maintaining the rear-wheel drive and using the same platform to reduce production costs.
The Peugeot 505 debuted on May 16, 1979, receiving praise for its road holding and comfort on rough surfaces. Its design was a classic three-volume sedan of the late 1970s to early 1980s, with a more modern but conventional line compared to the 504. The interior featured significant space and comfort, with modern design elements and a 523-liter trunk capacity. The 505 retained the rear-wheel drive and introduced a mix of engines, including two gasoline and one diesel option, with varying transmission offerings.
The 505 was available in a wide range of trims, from the basic GR to the more luxurious STI, catering to different customer preferences and needs. The 505 series saw several updates over the years, including the introduction of turbocharged versions and the GTI model. The range expanded to include estate (Break) and family (Familiale) versions, offering practicality with different seating arrangements and cargo space.
The pre-facelift phase lasted longer than usual due to positive sales feedback, leading to a mid-life update in 1985, introducing aesthetic and mechanical changes. In the following years, the 505 faced reductions in its range, eventually leading to the discontinuation of the sedan version in 1991 and the estate versions in 1992.
In the mid-1970s, the project that would lead to the successor of the Peugeot 504 was launched. The latter was a car with huge sales volumes that would continue to be produced and sold in some developing countries for many years after its removal from European markets. Therefore, it was about creating a car capable of inheriting a heavy legacy and perpetuating the French brand's tradition in the large sedan sector. As had been happening for over two decades, the body design was entrusted to Pininfarina, who in February 1976 created the first prototypes, foreshadowing the definitive shapes of the new Peugeot. These first prototypes clearly showed a stylistic kinship with the flagship 604. The intention of the Peugeot executives was to create a vehicle that, while taking the place of the 504, also aimed at a slightly higher market segment in terms of comfort features and also regarding the engine range, which was planned to include larger and more powerful units than those used in the 504 sedan and estate, although it was supposed to maintain the platform to contain production costs. As a result, the new vehicle would also retain the solution of rear-wheel drive. As the project progressed, the vehicle's lines became less austere and less similar to those of the 604, becoming softer and closer to those of the smaller 305, whose debut would occur in November 1977, a year and a half before that of the 505 itself.
