Peugeot optimistic about dealer opportunities in 2016

This belief comes despite both a shaky start to 2016, with registrations for the first two months of the year 2.76% behind the same period in 2015, and a relatively flat 0.66% year-on-year increase in total 2015 registrations to 104,249.

1Although Peugeot’s year-to-date market share at 4.26% is up on 2015 as a whole, it is a third of a percentage point behind the same two months in 2015 and a long way from the 8.38% Peugeot enjoyed at the turn of the century.

However, Peugeot UK brand director Neil Moscrop, who is retiring after more than three decades with the brand, is confident that he leaves incoming Peugeot UK managing director David Peel, who for the last six years has been running the Peugeot Citroen Retail Group, with reason for optimism.
