PSA's plan of action for Opel/Vauxhall: electrification, shared platforms

One hundred days after France's PSA group bought GM's Opel/Vauxhall European operations, the first and crucial detailed plan of action and its effects for the combined businesses was revealed at Opel's Rüsselsheim HQ.

It includes all Opel/Vauxhall passenger- car lines being electrified by 2024 and a rapid switch to the use of PSA flexible architectures in the same timeframe; a big cut in the number of Opel/ Vauxhall platforms and establishment of a Groupe PSA R&D center in Germany.
