PSA Supplying European Plants with Small Engines from China

PSA Group is importing 3-cylinder gasoline engines from China to supply some of its small-car production in Europe.

The 1.2-liter engines are being assembled by PSA’s China venture with Dongfeng Motor Co. Automotive News China cites Dongfeng as saying some 55,000 units are to be shipped to Europe between now and May 2018.

PSA will use the little powerplants in such cars as the Citroen C3-XR and C4, and Peugeot 2008, 308 and 408, according to ANC.
