"Groupe PSA is expanding its line-up with new electrified powertrains. It is technologically ready to play its part in the energy transition thanks to a multi-energy offering. Whatever new model they want, customers will be able to buy it in an internal combustion, electric or hybrid version.
"Groupe PSA is focusing on building its models on two platforms, CMP and EMP2, which are able to integrate any of the powertrains of its line-up, internal combustion, electric or hybrid. They allow its plants to produce internal combustion, hybrid or electric vehicles on a single production line."
Starting in 2019, each new model will have a full-electric or hybrid version. The five brands will offer "clean mobility solutions" in the form of all electric, zero emission vehicles or plug in hybrids emitting less than 49g/km of CO2.
Fifteen new electrified vehicles will be launched in just two years. Eight new plug-in hybrid models including the DS 7 Crossback E-Tense 4×4, Peugeot 3008, 508 and 508 SW, Citroën C5 Aircross, Vauxhall Grandland X and Opel Grandland X; and seven new electric models, including a DS 3 Crossback E-Tense, the first vehicle of the new electric generation which has just been revealed.
