Peugeot 508 to be produced in Mulhouse
- The next generation of the Peugeot 508 ( to be launched at the end of 2018) will no longer be produced in Rennes, western France, but in Mulhouse, in the east of France. The PSA group is completely revising its production strategy in Europe by:
1. Concentrating the B segment sedans on their Tnava site (Slovakia) (Citroën C3, Peugeot 208).
2. Dedicating their Mulhouse site (France) to DS and D segment sedans (Citroën C5, Peugeot 508, DS4, DS6, DS7) which requires:
a) Transfer the future Citroën C4 from Mulhouse to Villaverde (Spain).
b) Transfer the future 2008 Peugeot from Mulhouse to Vigo (Spain).
3. Dedicating the site of Rennes (France) to D segment SUV (Citroën C5 Aircross, Peugeot 5008, future 7-seater Opel).
4. Concentrating the low-priced cars (Citroën C-Elysée, Peugeot 301) on the Moroccan site of Kenitra (Morocco), which will release
capacities on the Spanish site of Vigo which will soon produce the Peugeot 2008.
- The Sochaux (France) site will continue to manufacture the Peugeot 308, as well as the SUV Peugeot 3008 and Opel Grandland, while the DS5
should disappear with the arrival of the DS6.
- The Valenciennes (France) site will continue to manufacture Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Toyota ProAce light commercial vehicles.
- The site of Poissy (France) should manufacture the future DS3 and possibly another not yet identified model.
