With the introduction of the all-new 2023 Peugeot 408, we know Stellantis has global ambitions for it. We think it reveals a future Dodge or Chrysler model.
This Peugeot 505 pickup is a prototype of a sedan-based four-door pickup, just like the Hyundai Santa Cruz. But this was made in 1985, preceding the Santa Cruz by 35 years.
Peugeot removed the lion’s body from its logo to usher in a new age of electric vehicles. The new Peugeot logo represents more than just a design change.
Personally, I'm one of those weirdos that likes to be inconvenienced when camping. The van life is, in most cases, the antithesis of that logic. Vans are all about bringing all you can. However, I like sleeping in a tent, cooking over an open fire, and taking as little "fluff" as possible when I get outside. Heck, I camp in a sports car, the automotive equivalent of bringing a camping knife to a camping gunfight. However, this little Peugeot Rifter simplifies the van life, I love it, and so should you.
With Peugeot and Dodge both under the Stellantis umbrella, a unique synergy could land Dodge with an incredible hypercar developed by Peugeot. Already competing in F1 and other forms of racing, it also plays in the World Endurance Championship arena with its Hybrid4 500KW four-wheel-drive LeMans runner. Now rumors are turning into reality as Stellantis …
There are plenty of options for car manufacturers in America. We have US-based options like Ford, Dodge, and Chevrolet, and foreign options like Nissan, BMW, Audi, and so many more. In all of the diversity, there are even newer manufacturers rising in popularity like Tesla and Kia, so it is easy to forget that there …
The new 2021 Peugeot Landtrek was just unveiled this week. Peugeot has a history of building pickups and SUVs and is well-versed in developing both. So we wonder: given that the newly-formed Stellantis has both Ram and Peugeot under the same roof, could this be Ram’s Ford Ranger/Chevy Colorado beater? To become the midsize Ram …
There are some great pickup trucks out there that we can’t have in the US. A lot of the reason has to do with the “Chicken Tax” that adds 25% to the price of any pickup imported into the US. For that reason and mostly that alone if the pickup isn’t made here it can’t …
The Stellantis picture is becoming clearer as the days wear on and its CEO Carlos Tavares speaks up. For a few years, the former Groupe PSA had made their plans known that the Peugeot nameplate would be heading back to the US. With the merger of it and Fiat Chrysler creating Stellantis those plans were …
With the Stellantis merger complete we get to guess which vehicles live and which die. This applies to some of the 14 brands currently within the new Stellantis company. Two models from the former PSA group that will probably die are Lancia and DS. That could also hold true for Chrysler and Dodge. Peugeot just …
With the approval by shareholders today of the joining of Fiat Chrysler and Groupe PSA, the merger is upon us. The nuts and bolts of the union should be wrapped up before spring. But with it comes the fact that there are now too many brands in what will be called Stellantis. That means the …
In the early part of 2021, Fiat Chrysler will merge with France’s PSA Group. It’s a huge change and it will create the fourth-largest car manufacturer in the world. Make no mistake, the French side of the new company, which will be called Stellantis, will call the shots. Which makes the introduction of Peugeot’s brand …
The Mk1 Volkswagen Golf GTI ushered in the concept of the front-wheel-drive hot hatch. Since then, other models have tweaked the formula. The Saab 900 Turbo, for example, introduced turbocharging. And the Lancia Delta Integrale broached the topic of all-wheel drive. But not all hot hatches were sold in the US. And getting one of …
As far back as May of 2014, Sergio Marchionne released one of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ five-year plans. In it, there was a sports coupe that was slotted to come in smaller than the Challenger. Rumors started flying that the new Dodge offering would inherit the old Plymouth Barracuda nameplate from muscle cars of years gone …
