DESIGN IS CENTRAL
TO BUYING A CAR
A car’s exterior instantly shapes our
perception of the brand it represents and
its design should therefore be bold and
effective. The interior should reinforce
our first impression, intensify the vehicle’s
appeal and give it an overall seamless
quality.
Now with three brands to its name,
PSA Peugeot Citroën can boast a highly
diversified, comprehensive design line-up
that meets the needs of each and every
customer.
In 2014, we reaped the full benefits of
the work done upstream by the Styling
and Brands Department over the years
to establish a distinct positioning for each
brand, and we continue to build on their
efforts every single day.
