Peaugeot 301

Peugeot Automobile Nigeria Limited is consolidating its leadership in the nation’s car manufacturing sector with the launching of the Peugeot 301 in commercial quantity in Nigeria, an official of the company has said.

The Managing Director of the company, Mr Ibrahim Boyi, said the company was in full support of the
government’s Automotive Industrial Development Programme and had designated about 24,000 square
metres within its premises in Kaduna State for the Local Components Park. Representatives of the Federal Government and the management of the Peugeot Automobile Nigeria, on Saturday, had a feel of what the vehicle looked like, as they were taken round the park to inspect the Peugeot Components Auto Cluster Park. The Automotive Industrial Development Programme is aimed at promoting local automobile production and reducing the importation of used cars.

The unveiled Peugeot 301 was made from over 120 years of automotive experience in the traditional Peugeot style of safety, comfort and strength. Over the next six to twelve months, the company has promised to roll out the Peugeot 508 and 408 models while hoping that the Federal Government will ensure
the implementation and compliance of the automotive policy.
