Peugeot opened in 2020 a new chapter in its history, by launching Landrek, a new pick-up with off-road capabilities.
The French manufacturer is one of the leading European LCV car-makers but they are lacking a pickup. Their co-operation with the Chinese brand Changan led to a duo of vehicles based on a chassis and capable of carrying a 1 metric ton load.

The new Peugeot Landtrek comes in two body shapes, with two or four doors, with a bed or as chassis-cab. Also, it comes with two or four-wheel-drive, with manual transmission and two-speed transfer case. There are two engines available, both turbocharged. A 2.4-liter gasoline unit with 210 hp and a workhorse of 1.9-liter diesel with 150 hp. Both can be equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission but only the gasoline-powered version can be ordered with a 6-speed automatic transmission with sequential shifting and two operation modes (Sport and Eco).

Inside the cabin, depending on the trim levels, Landtrek can be equipped more for a working environment or for a leisure one. Touch-screen display in the middle of the dashboard and even a TFT screen in the instrument cluster.

For the off-road trips, the Landtrek can tackle wading of 600 mm (2 ft) and it has a ground clearance of up to 235 mm (9.25 in) with 17” wheels. The approach and departure angle are 30, respectively 27 degrees, and a central angle of 25 degrees. The car is expected to be present in Latin America and Saharian Africa.
