The commercial results of the two French carmakers were published last week and, behind the facade homology represented by the similarity of volumes (
3.75 million for Renault and
3.48 million for PSA) and their decline (-3.4% for Renault and -10% for PSA), the figures underline the significant differences between the two manufacturers.
Thus, seen from France, one would get the impression that PSA is outperforming Renault. In most segments except B, Renault products are barely outperforming Peugeot products and the latter obviously give PSA a "pricing power" that Renault is struggling to conquer.
The financial results corresponding to the commercial results published last week are likely to confirm this in February.
