Peugeot, a foreign carmaker often considered almost Spanish due to its industrial history in the country and the popularity of its models, will reinforce its bond with Spain by continuing to manufacture some of its popular models in the country. Currently, Peugeot produces its two best-selling models, the 208 in Zaragoza and the 2008 in Vigo, as well as the commercial Partner also in Vigo.
Alain Favey, Peugeot's CEO, confirmed that the next generation of these models will also be made in Spain, specifically in the Vigo factory.
The Stellantis group, which owns Peugeot alongside Opel, Fiat, and Citroën, has invested heavily in Spain and plans to do so in the future, with a megaplanning industrial investment of over €5 billion. A significant portion of this investment, around €1 billion, will be directed towards building new electric vehicles with the STLA 1 platform in Vigo and Zaragoza.
Peugeot is also developing a new mid-sized segment C model with the STLA 1 platform, unlike Opel, which has chosen to collaborate with Chinese manufacturer Leapmotor for this project.
