CONFIRMED: Peugeot Citroen Has Plans To Return To US Around 2017

PSA Peugeot Citroen unveiled a 10-year plan that could eventually mean the return of Peugeot, Citroen or DS models to the U.S. market.

In an hour long presentation for analysts and investors today at PSA’s Paris headquarters, CEO Carlos Tavares said the updated blueprint would allow the automaker to “come back to a place where we can make significant profits.”

Still, Tavares’ plan for the U.S. market was pretty scarce of details. It is one part of a broad “Push to Pass” program outlined Tuesday to build upon a two-year recovery that has seen PSA swing from near-bankruptcy to its highest profitability in 14 years, with the help of a rescue from the French government.

I'm actually looking forward to it. French cars have character that is badly needed in the auto industry. There are so many cookie cutter cars out in the market today owned by "Vanilla" driving people.

What? Shoddy build quality? Indifferent reliability? Laughable durability? Horrific styling? That's NOW. The French aren't revered in Europe, so what makes PSA think they have a chance?

This will be a full-on clusterduck. This long-passe French merde of a company has no products the US consumer will want.

Clueless as always. The French make some lovely cars - maybe not mainstream - but does everything need to be a Camry? I think they'll find a profitable market here.
