With marketing operations in 150 countries, the Group generates one third of its unit sales outside Western Europe and is actively expanding its business in such fast growing markets as China, the Mercosur region and Russia. PSA Peugeot Citroën is building its growth on a powerful concept—two marques, each with its own brand identity and core values but sharing the same manufacturing, technological and management expertise and capabilities. This synergy between Peugeot and Citroën enhances the efficiency of a manufacturing base aligned around a unified production system. Already Europe’s leading manufacturer of low-emission cars, the Group is constantly innovating to offer customers cars that are both environmentally friendly and a pleasure to drive. In addition, a large proportion of its R&D budget is allocated to improving safety for everyone on the road. The Group also takes an innovative approach to employee relations, whose policies, based on social dialogue and mutual responsibility, are applied to all of its 207,800 team members in every host country around the world. PSA Peugeot Citroën is involved in three other major businesses: automotive finance with Banque PSA Finance, automotive equipment manufacturing with Faurecia, and transportation and logistics with Gefco.

  • France Continental Delocalise Son Usine De
    ANALYSE DE PRESSE DE 14H00 2008/09/30 FRANCE CONTINENTAL DELOCALISE SON USINE DE RAMBOUILLET EN TUNISIE Le 29 septembre, Continental a annoncé le déménagement d’une partie de son unité de production de Rambouillet en Tunisie. Cette délocalisation devrait entraîner la suppression de près de 400 emplois sur 800 dans l’usine (cf. revues de presse des 16 et 24/9/08). Si la production ne peut rester sur place, le département des Yvelines espère conserver à Rambouillet l’unité recherche et développement de Continental. Pour cela, les élus du conseil général ont voté le 26 septembre le versement d’une subvention de 1,25 million d’euros à l’équipementier allemand, qui s’engage à maintenir l’activité dans les Yvelines pour au moins dix ans et les effectifs des équipes pendant au moins trois ans. (PARISIEN 30/9/08) Par Presse LES MODELES HYBRIDES FERONT SENSATION AU MONDIAL LA TRIBUNE (30/9/08) indique que les voitures hybrides vont faire sensation au Mondial de l’Automobile. Honda, notamment, présentera l’Insight, voiture concept très proche du modèle de série, que le constructeur commercialisera au printemps 2009 avec l’ambition d’en écouler 200 000 par an en année pleine. En France, l’objectif sera de 4 500 unités par an, «pour un prix qui sera celui d’un modèle diesel compact, mais avec un coût d’entretien plus bas», indique Christophe Decultot, directeur général de Honda Motor South Europe, ajoutant qu’il y aura «4 modèles hybrides dans la gamme Honda dans les deux à trois ans».

  • Engineering Success on the Track – Creating the Lotus Sport 2007 GT3 Race Car BMW Plant Could Build Mini
    The official industry newsletter of Lotus Engineering Issue 19 March/April 2007 BMW plant could build Mini Engineering success on the track – creating the Lotus Sport 2007 GT3 race car Lotus Engineering Change the Rules Welcome It has been an incredibly hectic few months for Lotus Sport. Building on the successes of the 2006 GT3 campaign, in an unbelievably short time we have developed the 2007 race car. And to ensure we stay at the front of the field, this has involved significant engineering changes to the vehicle. Lotus Sport’s Louis R Kerr describes how Lotus Sport and Lotus Engineering have used their combined might to leave everyone confident of repeated success this year. The preparation for this season’s racing has not been the only racing-related activity keeping Lotus busy. At the Geneva Motor Show, recently we unveiled the Lotus 2-Eleven and the GT3 concept to thrill our enthusiast customers. In this issue we take a look at Lotus’ activities at the show from new products to advanced technologies, and then a wider look at what others in the industry were announcing and launching. Chris Arnold With the motor industry facing the challenge to reduce its impact on the environment, Lotus Engineering is working in many areas on producing technologies for greener vehicles. 8 Motor sport can play an important role in this and Jamie Turner, Lotus Engineering’s chief engineer for powertrain research discusses this topic. Finally there is an insightful interview with Christian Streiff, PSA Peugeot Citroën’s new chief executive from our colleagues at just-auto.com.
