Peugeot Plans to Introduce a 300cc Motorcycle

From Four Wheels to Two

Peugeot is known for its cars, but the company does make scooters, too. It has also made some motorcycles over the years, and now it sounds like the company will make a new 300cc bike. 

Mahindra bought Peugeot’s motorcycle division in 2019. It intends to bring seven new two-wheeled models to market between 2021 and 2023.

The Italian motorcycle publication Motociclismo had a chance to sit down with GAM Distribution’s president, Mario Minella. GAM handles the importing of Peugeot Motorcycles to Italy. During that conversation, Minella said the company will introduce a GT model with a 300cc to 400cc engine.

He also said that the Peugeot P2X Concept motorcycle that was revealed in 2019 could be used as the basis for an upcoming motorcycle platform. That platform could be used to make bikes with displacements ranging from 125cc to 500cc.

Peugeot’s focus will be on the Asian market, but the platform will be developed for global use. This means there could be a modern Peugeot motorcycle sold globally fairly soon. A distinct timeline and details about the bike, however, are not yet known.
