I know there are designers who look down on the process of plundering the past for new design ideas, but I can’t help but love a good modern re-working of a retro design. Peugeot’s stylists must have found a Peugeot 504 Coupe in some storage garage and fell in love, because their new electric and autonomous concept…
Remember when retro was cool again with the 2005 Ford Mustang and every automaker lost their mind for awhile, and then eventually calmed down? Well retro is far from dead it seems as Peugeot has a concept coupe inspired by the Peugeot 504 coupe from the 1970s.
President Trump’s threatened 25 percent tariff on imported cars would not only dramatically impact automakers both foreign and domestic and cause car prices to increase, it would also spell disaster for PSA Peugeot-Citroën, which is already deep in the process of returning to the North American market.
We see cars like this Peugeot 206 pulled over every now and again, and I’ll admit I have pretty complex feelings when I see these. Part of me thinks it’s insane and dangerous as hell to drive a car in this condition on a public road. And that part is right. But there’s another, stupider part that’s weirdly impressed.…
On the heels of the gorgeous 2018 Peugeot 508 sedan, which we saw in February, comes the new 2019 Peugeot 508 SW wagon. I love it, because of course I do. And if you love it, then you, like me, are a masochistic idiot.
Have you ever thought, huh, my car needs a kitchen? I haven’t, personally, but you know someone has. Like, what if, you put a car in your kitchen? You’d be a big dumb idiot that’s what. Still, one man recently thought having an operational kitchen in your car was a good idea, and put his efforts on film.

That, there. What was that? Did you feel it? A ghost of a breath through the barren trees? A fingertip trailing across a mirror-like lake. Could it be? The 2018 Peugeot 508? Yes, I believe in fact it is.
PSA Group, the parent company of Citroën, DS Automobiles, Peugeot, Opel, and Vauxhall, wants to come back to the U.S. market with low-volume production models, likely on a similar method as Alfa Romeo’s return to the U.S. They are, however, also considering a ride-sharing model as well. In either case, PSA Group have…
Two-time WRC champion Carlos Sainz has failed to complete the Dakar rally for the last three years as a factory Peugeot entrant, but perseverance and patience has prevailed with Sainz not only finishing the rally, but taking home the champion’s laurels to boot. This was his last best chance to win Dakar again, as his…

Like many sports car fanatics, I was disappointed when Peugeot cancelled their LMP1 program in 2012. As their sales continued to decrease, it made less sense for the company to spend many millions continuing the sports car program, though their focus on rally continued. In 2014 the French manufacturer built a special…

This car has some strange history as a Grand Prix racer turned Indianapolis 500 winner—except that it isn’t. As part of Bonhams’ Bothwell Collection sale yesterday, this 1914 Peugeot L45 Grand Prix Two-Seater ranks among the most expensive French cars ever sold (some Bugattis and Talbot-Lagos have exceeded this…
I’ve been giving American cars a lot of likely unwanted meh-car attention lately, so let’s venture across the sea and discover what unexciting non-wonders are waiting listlessly to bore you. This week, thanks to a suggestion from a reader named Adam, I’d like to present to you a heaping fistful of French automotive…
More so than its central mystery or its musings on the nature of memories and humanity, I love Blade Runner for its world-building—even if that world is decidedly not a very nice place. The sci-fi classic is back with Blade Runner 2049 and I’m not spoiling anything by telling you that world is even worse now. More…
When you’re in Europe, you can always pick out the American car nerds because something perfectly ordinary, like a Peugeot 208, can roll by and we’ll absolutely lose our shit over it. Well, maybe we’ll be losing our shit stateside soon!
