A few weeks before the Paris Motor Show, Stellantis has revealed the outlines of its participation in the show. From October 14 to 20, the group will present 26 models in Paris, including five world premieres. Like Peugeot, it will primarily highlight its electric models. The lion brand will indeed be exhibiting its entire 100% electric range. A range of 12 models complemented by the all-new Peugeot E-408. Another French brand in the group, Citroën, will offer its first walkabout at the ë.C3. It will also unveil the world premiere of the new C3 Aircross which will have its electric version. In terms of affordable mobility, Stellantis will have another asset at the World Cup with Leapmotor. A Chinese brand for which he now ensures worldwide distribution. On the other hand, other brands in the group will skip the show this year.
Peugeot with its entire electric range
During the 2024 World Cup, Peugeot will exhibit its entire 100% electric range. The most complete and widest range of all European general manufacturers. A range of 12 models enriched by the new E-408 that Peugeot will present as a world premiere in Paris. Visitors will also be able to discover the Long Range versions of the Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008. SUVs offering respectively up to 700 and 668 km of autonomy, the best autonomy in the segment. On its stand, Peugeot will also present two major technological innovations serving emotion and driving pleasure. Representing the future of mobility according to Peugeot, the Peugeot Inception Concept combines comfort, durability and cutting-edge technologies. The revolutionary Hypersquare steering wheel offers ergonomic and intuitive handling, with customizable touch controls. It will equip a Peugeot production vehicle by 2026.
First crowd bath for the Citroën ë-C3
Citroën will also play the electric card during the 2024 Paris Motor Show. It will first of all offer its first crowd bath to the ë-C3 which is finally arriving in dealerships. With this aggressively priced electric city car, Citroën intends to establish itself in the affordable electric mobility market. A market in which the electric version of the new C3 Aircross, which Citroën will present as a world premiere, will also evolve. The public at the Paris Motor Show will also be able to discover the restyling of the electric C4. The latter will notably feature a unique bow and spotlights. Finally, a pioneer in micromobility with the Ami, the chevron brand will unveil a new version of this ultra-compact vehicle. With this still mysterious Ami Tower, Citroën will properly celebrate the four years of success of this small license-free car.
Affordable mobility with Leapmotor
Another new feature for the 2024 edition, the Chinese brand Leapmotor will participate in the Paris Motor Show under the banner of the Stellantis group. The latter has in fact created a joint venture with it which markets its vehicles outside China. Leapmotor will present its affordable electric mobility solutions based on cutting-edge technology in Paris. Rival of the Dacia Spring, its T03 city car will feature prominently on its stand. An electric car that it could market for less than 15,000 euros, which would make it the cheapest on the market. However, Leapmotor will especially create the event by unveiling its brand new B10. A C-segment electric SUV which marks an important stage in its growth. It must indeed make its advanced technology available to a wider audience. Finally, it will present the C10, an electric family SUV from the D segment.
Several brands of the group absent from the World Cup
If Alfa Romeo will accompany Peugeot and Citroën at the World Cup, many brands from the Stellantis group will be conspicuous by their absence. So DS will skip the big Parisian event this year. However, the public would have liked to discover the electric version of the DS 4. The brand had announced its availability before the end of the year, but the show still comes too early. Other brands with a strong presence in France, Fiat and Opel, will also be missing. However, they had some new things to present to the French public. The latter will therefore still have to wait to discover the Fiat Grande Panda or the new Opel Frontera and Grandland. Curiously, while it is trying to relaunch itself on the French market, Lancia will not come with its new electric Ypsilon. Finally Jeep, which unveiled the electric Avenger at the 2022 World Cup, will not repeat the experience in 2024 with the Wagoneer S.
