2008 Highlights

In 2008, the Group pursued its efforts following the action plan entitled “10 sustainable development objectives for 2008-2011”, guiding its teams’ actions in each area of responsibility.

PSA Peugeot Citroën reasserted its environmental leadership by selling more than one million vehicles emitting less than 140 grams of CO2 per km worldwide for the 3rd consecutive year, and by achieving Europe’s lowest corporate average CO2 emissions, at 140 grams per km according to the ranking prepared by France’s Agency for the Environment and Energy Management (ADEME).

To optimise the use of natural resources, the Group has implemented an ambitious plan to increase the proportion of “green” materials (recycled and natural materials, biomaterials) by weight, in a vehicle’s total polymers to 20% by 2011.

In the area of road safety, PSA Peugeot Citroën is the only carmaker to have succeeded in widely deploying an emergency call system, with 650,000 vehicles equipped on the road at year-end 2008.

Every subsidiary has pledged to support PSA Peugeot Citroën’s Global Framework Agreement on Social Responsibility, which formalises the Group’s commitments in favour of fundamental human rights and best human resources practices worldwide.

Regarding marketing, a Group responsible communications charter was deployed, defining social responsibility standards for any advertising produced by the Group, our brands, regardless of target audience, media or country.

PSA Peugeot Citroën is a European automobile manufacturer supported by two broadline brands: Peugeot and Citroën. In 2008, PSA Peugeot Citroën sold 3.26 million vehicles in 150 countries and employed 201,700 people worldwide.
