Singapore: Strategic Partnerships DPCA to sell vehicles to ASEAN region from Singapore 7th Jan, 2015

PSA Peugeot Citroën has signed a 50:50 joint venture agreement with Dongfeng Motor, its partner in China, to sell Chinese and European-made vehicles in ASEAN markets from a base in Singapore. The agreement, which is reported to be worth 100m yuan ($16m), is part of PSA’s existing strategic partnership with Dongfeng Motor – Dongfeng Peugeot Citroën Automobile (DPCA)

Overall in China and South East Asia, unit sales for DPCA rose by more than 44% in Q3 last year, lifted by the recent launches of the Peugeot 301, 2008 and 408, the Citroën C-Elysée and C4L. Those figures were also helped by the start-up of the Citroën DS brand with the DS 5, DS 5 LS and DS 6, though the DS brand, which continues to be handled by PSA’s other joint venture in China, Changan PSA Automobile, will not be sold through this most recent joint venture.
