Peugeot is presenting two new concept cars at the Beijing auto show ahead of a new lineup of large sedans and sport utility vehicles as part of the brand’s international growth plan, Stellantis said in an emailed statement Friday. The vehicles will be produced by Dongfeng at its Wuhan plant for the Chinese market, Stellantis said, confirming an earlier report by Bloomberg News.
