1, the technology is backward and the technology eliminated by others is still in use.
As we all know, the torsion beam of French cars is famous for making the chassis firm and stable. However, when other brands constantly try new technologies and gain market recognition, its torsion beam is obviously backward. In China, it is recognized that power and fuel economy are very strong. Peugeot even uses a three-cylinder engine, but other brands have suffered enough here.
2, out of touch with the market, did not improve products according to market demand.
The average height of Americans is 1 in the world, and Americans are generally obese. Obviously, big space and strong motivation are their first choice. The advantages of French cars are completely contrary to the demand of American cars, which leads to French cars being unaccustomed in the United States.
Some time ago, French cars announced that they would return to the American market. I wonder if the French car is fully prepared this time. As a group of people who eat melons, we just need to watch the fun.
What do you think of this problem?
The person who asked this question has a good heart! First, the legal system is a century-old enterprise, and the spraying technology is backward. Here I borrow a line: ignorance+three! A frequent visitor to Ward's Top Ten Engine Legal System! I suggest you have time to study in Baidu! Second, the point is, why not in America? Americans like big, bigger and super-large, while other legal brands including Europe are basically small and medium-sized compact cars. As for the models with L and PULS sold in China, except for unlimited sales in China, it is called "Special Edition"! Thirdly, the displacement of the legal system: there is no large displacement in the spray method. Here I suggest Baidu that the best diesel engine in Europe is from France, and it has two displacements of 2.0 and 2.2, so we have a suit at home. Is it necessary to make another set? Fourth, French cars were sold in the United States and later withdrawn. The main reason is political factors. As for why there are many Japanese and Korean families in the United States now, and there are so many preferential policies for sons and pets to honor their owners, who doesn't like it? As for whether China enjoys them, let's think for ourselves!
PSA Group (formerly known as PSA Peugeot Citroen, or even just Peugeot Citroen) closed its last dealer in the United States in 20 15, although it was as early as 199 1 year before the last car they sold in the United States.
Now, I heard that PSA Group is considering going back to the United States as a "travel company" to sell or put in some electric cars or similar products and services in the form of renting and purchasing. This is an empty future idea with no future. Every car company shouts a similar slogan, but no one regards it as the main business. Because this is destined to be another huge and humiliating failure, it is better to focus on the traditional automobile business with this resource.
The problem with PSA is that no car company can successfully introduce a brand (except Tesla) in the United States from the first day without a perfect national distribution network. If there is a reliable distributor and after-sales guarantee system, it doesn't really matter what product quality is in the eyes of Americans.
Peugeot 505 is not uncommon on the American road of 1986. Peugeot 505 and its diesel-powered Peugeot 504 are well-known in the United States, but most of them are famous for their faults. Even its owner thinks that buying Peugeot is a kind of faith. However, some American car owners said that compared with the Volkswagen at that time, the Peugeot 505 was not a completely unreliable car. It only flashes an unusual fault code occasionally and then goes back to the dealer for a week to troubleshoot, but it will never let the owner stay on the road.
Modified 87 Maxima SE (Nissan Sima). Why do you want to mention this car? Because at that time, the middle class in the United States bought cars mainly for their own careers, and they had to travel at least 50 thousand kilometers every year. It is not surprising that the reliability brought by buying these Japanese brands and the good rate of preservation after a few years have made Peugeot 505 slowly disappear on the road in the United States. 1990 The arrival of Lexus was the last nail nailed to the PSA coffin board.
In the long run, perhaps the decision to abandon the American market may have saved Peugeot. To be honest, I am glad that there are still niche brands like Peugeot and Citroen, and I am glad that they continue to make unique and charming cars. Although we are not sure what brought PSA back to the United States, it still persists in the China market, and Peugeot 508L and New 2008 are dying out. I believe that the sales of these two cars have given PSA the best answer, and we really understand the fact that Peugeot must throw away some attractive chips if it wants to know what is covered by consumers' cards.
Americans like to be big, but Peugeot is not good at it.
I was in Quebec, Canada, and I didn't see Peugeot either, which was also very strange. The car seller said that the French car floor was not rusted well and withdrew from the Canadian market.
Peugeot is famous for producing exquisite and well-controlled small cars, which are basically below Class B. Americans like to drive large-displacement cars, and PSA's small-displacement engine technology is also very good. These advantages and PSA's current strategic models are very different from the American market, but now that PSA and FAC have merged, there will be a platform for big cars in the future, so we can expect big cars in the legal system.
Never been to America, I don't know.
Dongfeng Peugeot has a car whose engine was eliminated by BMW mini.
Who would choose this garbage truck? Americans, countries on wheels, will not understand?
