==Afterlife== Peugeot eventually abandoned the Talbot brand, and the last Simca design was launched as [[Peugeot 309]] (instead of Talbot Arizona as had been originally planned). The Peugeot 309 used Simca engines until October 1991 (some 18 months before the end of production) when they were replaced by PSA's own TU and XU series of engines. The 309 was produced at the former [[Rootes Group|Rootes]] factory in [[Ryton-on-Dunsmore]], UK, as well as in the Poissy plant. Simcas were also manufactured in [[Brazil]], [[Colombia]], [[Spain]] and [[Finland]]. The last Simca-based car produced was the Horizon-based [[Dodge Omni]], which was built in the USA until 1990. The European equivalent had already been axed three years earlier when use of the Talbot name on passenger cars was finally discontinued.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rootes-chrysler.co.uk/car-development/dev-horizon.html |title=Development of the Chrysler - Talbot - Simca Horizon |website=Rootes-chrysler.co.uk |access-date=2011-07-18}}</ref>
