Peugeot Australia has stepped up in the active safety stakes with its products, which now include autonomous emergency braking (AEB) and a rear-view camera across its model line-up. Better yet, this is done without any increase in price!
“Autonomous emergency braking is a vital safety assist technology and Peugeot Australia is to be commended for this commitment to make AEB standard across its entire Australian model range. Safety is not a luxury and having AEB as standard provides enhanced safety to consumers,” said ANCAP chief executive officer James Goodwin.
The entry-level Peugeot 208 Active, in fact, has gotten A$200 (RM632) cheaper with the update, now starting at A$21,990 (RM69,549) in Australia before on-road costs. The 5008 seven-seater SUV will join the other end of the model line-up when it goes on sale in Australia next month, also with AEB.
Currently in Peugeot’s Malaysian model line-up, only the 308 THP comes with emergency collision braking, a form of autonomous emergency braking.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Told ya Proton. Peugeot PSA is gooder partner.
you are right. Peugeot is a good partner. Because Peugeot is looking for safety and quality. Geely on the other hand just want volume. They are not interested in safety or quality.
Every wondered why Geely cars can only sell in China and not sold globally? Well because they have failed design and quality regulations of US, UK, Europe, Japan and Australia and New Zealand.
They can only sell their cars in China….and now, found a scapegoat to sell their cars in Malaysia.
Peugeot cars are sold in over 100 countries. Geely is only sold in China.
Every wondered why?
3008 or xc60 or cx3?
Yeah, and P1 will have to spend freaking long time for RHD conversion becoz Pijots lazy poor job at doing it properly. They might not even have the chance to do it properly considering how they treated Naza, and just look at the lousy conversion job that Pijot instructed Naza to do. Utterly messed out so much so that practical things became impractical. So thanks but no thanks Pijot, we dun need ur RHD cars.
Actually it is the Naza people that are lazy. Naza could not understand the high tech instructions given to them by Peugeot.
Peugeot should have given Tan Chong to do it. They have the intelligence to do Peugeot properly. They don’t sleep in the office either.
Really? Is that why their sales dropping worse than toyota and they din come out with ANY new models last year while their competitors keep outing new cars? Very “fantastic” job they did.
RHD conversion is done by the manufacturer, not the importer.
My Renault’s front boot opener is on the passenger side door, because Renault didn’t bring the opener to the driver’s side when they convert from LHD to RHD.
Oh, and who sells Renault in Malaysia? Tan Chong.
Nope, you’re totally wrong. I doubt you can substantiate your statement
Betui. Just like how Volvo shook the premium status quo, the Proton renaissance will take the mass market by storm. Hail Geely Chinas!
Cant see a single s90 on the road. Is it launched?
Nope
Michelle,
This article is on Peugeot only
Since you like mentioned others and may I ask you
1) Why Audi sales in Malaysia is so bad ??
and
2)Do you think Audi Malaysia will close shop anytime soon ??
There’s no doubt that Peugeot cars are well designed and comes with latest technologies. But what Peugeot have failed to do is find a competent partner in Malaysia to market it’s car. Naza is absolutely killing the brand just like what they are doing to Kia. Lousy sales strategy and after sales service is underperforming and can’t cope with the technical aspects requirements for these cars. Get a new competent partner in Malaysia Peugeot!!!
Naza all sleeping in office. What do you expect? Give Tan Chong or Boon Siew. They can do better job
Tan Chong was terrible. Boon Siew is worse. Their motor sales is effectively ran by DRB Honda Malaysia now. Why? Becoz they keep losing market share even thou were early in the business.
