This approach does not showcase the true capabilities of the vehicles or the ownership experience of a Peugeot.
“With the Peugeot Weekender Experience, we want to change how our customers experience our vehicles. We want to give them the freedom and flexibility for several days to enjoy the true experience and see how a Peugeot can meet their lifestyle and mobility needs.”
Open to all Malaysians with a valid driving license, the Peugeot Weekender Experience can be participated in by visiting any authorized Peugeot showroom and scanning the provided QR code.
Alternatively, you can visit the microsite peugeotweekenderexperience.com, fill in your personal information, and select a nearby showroom.
