The Peugeot 107 is identical to the C1, other than the front bumper and front and rear lights, while the Toyota Aygo is slightly more differentiated, but still obviously similar. All of them are built at the new facilities of the TPCA joint venture (Toyota Peugeot Citroën Automobile) in the city of Kolín, Czech Republic. The project was presented for the first time at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. The cars are four seater, three-door or five-door hatchbacks measuring 3.40 metres (133.9 in) in length. A notable feature of the five door C1 and 107, though not the Aygo, is the large tail light cluster, which extends from the edge of the rear doors to the rear window, meaning there is no external metal 'C-pillar'. According to the German magazine Der Spiegel, the C1 is the production car with the second-best fuel economy both among petrol engines (after the Toyota Prius) and among diesel engines (after the Smart ForTwo). In January 2010, PSA Peugeot Citroën announced that it is recalling 'under 100,000 units' of the C1 and the Peugeot 107, following the worldwide recall by Toyota for a faulty sticking accelerator pedal – in which the Aygo is affected. Under certain circumstances, the pedal can stick in a partially depressed position, or return slowly to the off position. Rear trunk door made paintable as model nicely made especially taillights.
