What the Peugeot Logo Colors Mean?
The Peugeot logo colors have varied while the lion has not. The animal was first used on Peugeot saw blades, chosen because a good saw was said to have teeth like a lion's, and it was registered in 1858. It moved to car radiators around 1907, reared up on its hind legs in 1948 after the arms of Franche-Comté, the family's home region, and was cut back to just the head in 2021.
Peugeot Logo Color History
Peugeot logo color history moves through gold-on-blue, chrome, and now a flat black-and-white head. Each redraw since the 1960s has simplified the lion further; the 2021 version is the most reduced yet.
Peugeot Logo Fonts
Peugeot logo fonts are a custom serif for the wordmark, drawn for the brand in 2021 and not sold. A firm slab serif is the nearest match.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
