Who Owns Peugeot?

Peugeot is at the forefront of Stellantis' electrification roadmap. In 2024, Peugeot achieved European leadership in the B-Hatch electric segment with the E-208 and in the electric light commercial vehicle segment with the E-Partner, E-Expert, and E-Boxer models. Electrified vehicles (BEV + PHEV + MHEV) represent 35% of Peugeots registered in Europe.

Peugeot contributes to Stellantis' carbon net zero strategy through the development of battery electric vehicles and manufacturing efficiency improvements. The brand supports Stellantis' goal of halving emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050. Peugeot's manufacturing facilities implement energy efficiency measures, renewable energy adoption, and optimized production processes.

Peugeot benefits from Stellantis' integrated battery ecosystem, which includes dual battery chemistry strategies: nickel-free and cobalt-free lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries and nickel-based batteries. The brand participates in battery recycling programs and sustainable raw material sourcing initiatives.

Peugeot manufacturing facilities in France, Spain, Czech Republic, and China implement sustainable production practices including waste reduction, water conservation, and energy efficiency programs. The brand works with suppliers to ensure ethical sourcing of raw materials.

Peugeot supports alternative renewable fuels including ethanol-based flex-fuel vehicles produced in South America and is evaluating increased use of bio-based content such as ethanol and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) to ensure compatibility with future standards.

The Peugeot E-3008 was selected as a finalist for the European Car of the Year 2024 award, marking the seventh time since 2013 that Peugeot has joined the exclusive list of finalists. This recognition highlights Peugeot's excellence in vehicle design and innovation.

Peugeot has been recognized for its dominance in the European electric vehicle market, particularly for leading the B-Hatch electric segment with the E-208 and the electric light commercial vehicle segment with the E-Partner, E-Expert, and E-Boxer.

Peugeot's 2024 sales results of approximately 1.1 million registrations, including more than doubling electric car orders compared to the previous year, have been acknowledged as demonstrating successful transition to electric mobility. The brand achieved over 100,000 orders for the Peugeot 3008 and E-3008 since launch.

Peugeot vehicles have consistently received recognition for design excellence, particularly for the brand's distinctive styling language and interior design philosophy. The 3008 and 5008 models have been praised for their innovative design features and premium positioning within the mainstream market segment.

Peugeot's achievement of 35% electrified vehicle sales in Europe has been acknowledged as demonstrating progress toward sustainable mobility goals. The brand's move upmarket with the launch of the E-3008, E-5008, and E-408 has been recognized as successfully combining premium positioning with electrification technology.

Peugeot issued recalls in 2024 and 2025 for multiple models including the 208 and 308 due to engine management software calibration issues that could result in incorrect emission levels. The software calibration problems could cause emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) that do not comply with regulatory limits, leading to mandatory recalls to update engine control software.

Peugeot 308 vehicles from 2018 to 2024 were recalled for issues with the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and diesel particulate filter (DPF) systems. The malfunction indicator light could fail to illuminate if the diagnostic system detected faults, potentially preventing drivers from being alerted to emissions system problems.

Peugeot 308 vehicles manufactured between 2019 and 2021 experienced urea injector failures affecting the emissions control system. This recall addressed critical components in the SCR system that are essential for reducing NOx emissions.

Multiple Peugeot models, particularly the 3008 series, have experienced diesel particulate filter clogging issues. Mk2 models (2017 to 2024) have been particularly affected by DPF problems, which can lead to reduced engine performance, increased emissions, and costly repairs.

The new Peugeot 3008 III (2024) experienced teething problems requiring software updates. While some updates could theoretically be performed remotely over-the-air, Peugeot has recalled vehicles back to dealerships for these updates.

Peugeot, along with other Stellantis brands, has faced increased regulatory scrutiny regarding emissions compliance and environmental performance. The brand has had to invest in updating engine management systems and emissions control technologies to meet evolving European emissions standards, particularly Euro 6d regulations.

Peugeot vehicles have experienced various diesel emissions system faults, including issues with exhaust gas recirculation valves, NOx sensors, and AdBlue systems. These problems have affected multiple model lines and required extensive warranty repairs.
