For decades, the French driving experience has been out of reach of the Filipino car enthusiast, with leading French carmakers focusing on their strong European following rather than building an Asian market. 

From March 1 to 31, 2016, in partnership with BPI Family Auto Loan and RCBC Savings Bank, Peugeot Philippines will bring Filipinos an unforgettable experience of pure driving sensation with more convenient payment plans than ever before, through its brand-new sales program.

Peugeot Philippines’ latest sales program puts driving sensation first, making it easier to purchase a brand-new Peugeot vehicle and paving the way for satisfying long-term ownership. 

Peugeot’s vehicle lineup offers the  Filipinos a new driving  sensation.

With this program, Filipinos can enjoy pure driving sensation with all-in low down payment, free LTO registration for three years, free insurance, and free chattel mortgage. 

LTO registration fees will be covered by the dealership where the vehicle is purchased, while the free insurance and chattel mortgage fees will come care of BPI Family Auto Loan or RCBC Savings Bank.

“The French driving experience is one that’s completely focused on the driver’s pleasure,” says Peugeot Philippines President Glen Dasig. “The French are world-famous for their appreciation of experiences, for savoring moments, whether they’re tasting the finest wines or just enjoying a casual family picnic under the sun. 

“That’s what we’re going for here —you can be stuck in traffic but still enjoying yourself when you’re in a Peugeot,” Dasig says. “Driving a Peugeot—especially one you can call your own—is a gratifying experience in itself.”

Six different ways to experience French driving sensation

To deliver sensation that fits the needs of a wide variety of people, Peugeot Philippines’ featured models for this promotion include the 301 sedan, the 3008 crossover, the 208 GTi, the 5008 MPV, the Expert Tepee family van, and the RCZ sports coupé.

Peugeot 301

Elegant and versatile, the 301 is Peugeot’s most attainable vehicle that blends French sophistication with comfortable roominess, impressive handling, and superior fittings. 

With an exceptional 20.4km/L mileage achieved by its 1.6L HDi diesel engine, the 301 is designed for city driving, providing increased fuel efficiency and eco-friendliness, along with added power and performance.

Two variants of the 301 are available: the 301 AT (Automatic Transmission Petrol) and the 301 MT (Manual Transmission Diesel).

Peugeot 3008

Taking its inspiration from the SUV, hatchback, and MPV, the 3008 is a practical family vehicle built for those with an adventurous spirit.

The 3008 exudes a distinctively strong and dynamic character, combining intelligent, contemporary design with a raised driving position and unique panoramic glass roof. 

Modular seating, multiple storage compartments, and versatile ISOFIX attachments help ensure a comfortable, safe journey for everyone on board, including children. This is reinforced by the 3008’s 5-star rating from Euro NCAP, the most widely recognized independent vehicle safety assessor in Europe.

Peugeot 208 GTi

The direct descendant of the 205 GTi, the 208 GTi is the culmination of superior design, engineering, and passion for driving excitement and motorsports. 

Eye-catching and elegant, the 208 GTi boasts dynamic exteriors. From its checkerboard grille enhanced with Peugeot lettering to its diamond-effect hubcaps and intricate interiors, every detail was created to make driving more thrilling and instinctive, as well as comfortable and safe. 

With its award-winning turbocharged 1.6-liter THP petrol engine, reworked exhaust line, and 6-speed manual gearbox, the 208 GTi takes full advantage of the athletic character that made the GTi legend such a success.

Peugeot 5008

The 5008 offers a new take on the compact MPV, with its sleek, sporty silhouette and strong character, both inside and out.

Its wide cabin, plush seats, and panoramic sunroof give every passenger a unique sensation of space and light, while providing in-vehicle entertainment in the form of an impressive multimedia system.

The 5008 was also awarded a Euro NCAP 5-star rating because of its six airbags fitted as standard, cruise control and speed limiter, and ISOFIX-mounted seats that allow the easy and secure installation of infant seats without the use of seatbelts, among other innovative safety features. 

Peugeot Expert Tepee

The Expert Tepee brings joy back into long family journeys.    

Designed to transport a large number of people in utmost comfort and safety, it boasts three modular rows of seats, intelligent storage options, a variety of reliable safety features, and Peugeot’s signature driving sensation.

With its interactive multimedia system, which includes a 7-inch touchscreen that also serves as a rear camera display monitor, the Expert Tepee provides various possibilities for entertainment and safety on the way to the desired destination.

Peugeot RCZ

The perfect combination of elegance and power, the RCZ is a sleek and exclusive vehicle, keeping the audacity it demonstrated as a concept car while incorporating sophistication and subtlety.

The RCZ possesses a more dynamic style than its predecessor, with a redesigned front face, signature double bubble roof, distinctive roof arches, and muscular rear bumper—details that can’t be found on any other car.
