PSA's eVMP platform will be produced from 2023
- PSA's eVMP platform will not be available on production cars before 2023. Contrary to what had been announced in the Auto-Analysis of August 21, 2020, the new generations of the Peugeot 308, Citroën C5 and Opel Astra scheduled for 2021 will not will not receive the new platform, given that their design started several years ago and that at that time the eVMP platform was not ready.
- The first models to be equipped with this new platform will therefore be the future Peugeot 3008 and 5008, scheduled for 2023. Then the renewal of the PSA ranges of the C and D segments will make it possible to generalize this platform to all of these models. Remember that the eVMP platform is derived from the EMP2 platform, that it is dedicated to models of segments C and D, and that it makes it possible to design a 100% electric car, a hybrid car (rechargeable or not) or a heat engine on the same basis.
- Initially planned for the Citroën, DS, Peugeot, Opel and Vauxhall brands, the eVMP platform will also be intended for the Fiat, Alfa-Roméo and Jeep brands, following the merger of FCA with PSA. It will gradually replace the EMP2 platform, which should disappear by 2030, even for light commercial vehicles.
- At that time, there will be within the Stellantis group only two platforms of PSA origin (eCMP and eVMP), plus those of FCA origin (mainly that of light commercial vehicles, that of Ram pick-ups and that of large Chrysler / Dodge sedans).
