The French group wants to cover up to 90% of the market by expanding its future range on both extremities. Peugeot and Citroen will offer a low cost model but also, in a very surprising move, some premium models.<\/p>\n<p>No information has been given concerning either direction, but the recent C-Cactus concept car gives us a rough idea of what the French manufacturer is currently working on for the budget model. As I mentioned, the premium models are a surprise. The only current premium model, the Citro\u00ebn C6, does not sell particularly well despite good reviews from the motoring press. Nobody thought that Peugeot or Citro\u00ebn would plan to compete with the ubiquitous German cars on the upper segments. This is a good news and I am looking forward to seeing more premium models with a Gallic taste.<\/p>\n<p>Competing on all segments will require considerable resources.
