Among the more hotly anticipated cars to make their way to Malaysia this year is this French duo: the Citroen DS3 Crossback and Peugeot 508, spotted in USJ1 last weekend by a Wapcar.my reader.
Recall that Berjaya Auto Alliance Sdn Bhd (BAASB) now controls Groupe PSA brands in Malaysia, and among their first launches is touted to be this 508, alongside the Peugeot 2008 SUV.
Malaysia might also be ASEAN's first country to launch the D-segment sedan. Upon its launch, the 508 will square up against the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord and Volkswagen Passat.
For the Citroen however, its fate is not too definite. BAASB has only took on the after-sales part of the Citroen and DS marques, and not distribution rights. This DS3 Crossback might just be a training unit, seeing as Groupe PSA has a regional training centre here.
With humble beginnings collecting diecast models and spending hours virtually tuning dream cars on the computer, his love of cars has delightfully transformed into a career. Sanjay enjoys how the same passion for cars transcends boundaries and brings people together.
