Although the successor should be fully electric, the Fre ch bra d has decided to exte d the life cycle of the curre t model u til 2029 i order to avoid the commercial "suicide" of its successful SUV.
I rece t mo ths, we have wit essed the redefi itio of lo g-term strategic pla s of car bra ds. The vast majority of them decide ot to i vest i the developme t of a ew ge eratio , but to exte d the life cycle of the existi g models with a thorough redesig a d use of SUS e gi es as lo g as possible.
This recog izable tech ique, which ma ufacturers have bee usi g for decades, will be eve more pro ou ced. I additio to visually refreshi g the car i the eyes of customers, it simulta eously e ables lower developme t costs a d the sale of cars as if they were bra d ew. After all, the vast majority of customers do ot u dersta d it at all, accordi g to Klix.ba.
The delay i the e try i to force of the ew Euro 7 sta dard is o e of the factors for such a commercial strategy, but also for what the future holds for electric cars. The reality is that, o matter how hard the politicia s try, the citize s of Europe are ot ready, a d either is the i frastructure, which is why bra ds are starti g to pull back. That is why it is better to exte d the life cycle with aesthetic cha ges. The right ca didate is the Peugeot 2008, which is awaiti g thorough restyli g, but also relyi g o i ter al combustio e gi es.
