Peugeot's CEO says PSE will die, but is open to the idea of a road-going version of its 9X8 hypercar
Peugeot has chosen not to expand its high-performance PSE range beyond the hot 508, focusing instead on its drive towards full electrification. That’s the status on the sporting brand, which stands for Peugeot Sport Engineered, according to company CEO Linda Jackson. “To be honest we thought about but then the prioritisation came into play and this is all about electrification,” she said. “The fact is we are investing, as Stellantis, €40 billion for electrification and Peugeot is a part of that.
” Jackson was speaking at Imola in Italy, where she was monitoring the debut of Peugeot’s heavily evolved 2024 version of its 9X8 Hypercar in the World Endurance Championship. The WEC programme is Peugeot’s sole interest in motor sport and looks set to remain so, although she appeared to have an open mind to the suggestion an all-electric Pikes Peak mountain climb racer would make sense.
