Together, the 4007 and C-Crosser were the first Japan produced cars sold under any French brand. They had their sales target of 30,000 units per year.[3] It was officially launched on 12 July 2007.

They had been planned to be assembled, for Europe, in the factory that was built in the 1960s to assemble DAFs, now Mitsubishi's Nedcar plant in Born, Netherlands,[4] but this was postponed indefinitely,[5] when sales of the two models fell well below the target of 30,000 units.
