Peugeot Landtrek is Our Newest Car of The Month

Peugeot has released a fully-fledged pickup truck for the first time in their illustrious history, and it is so good that we decided to make it our April Car of The Month!

With a stylish exterior, roomy interior, and powerful underpinnings, this new pickup truck hopes to compete with the established players of the game and become a household name, akin to the Ford F150 and Chevy Silverado.

Join us as we explore what the latest release from Peugeot has to offer!

Exterior Of The Peugeot Landtrek

The Peugeot Landtrek stands out from the sea of boring pickup trucks with its masculine looks. The front facia and headlights pay homage to the rest of the French outfit’s lineup, with distinct, lion-inspired looks.

Beneath the stylish wraparound headlights are a set of daytime running lights, placed vertically. The large front skidplate gives passersby a hint at the capability of this vehicle.

Being a pickup truck, the Landtrek is already one of the most practical vehicles Peugeot makes. The factory-installed roof rack up top adds to that functionality, while simultaneously improving the truck’s side profile.

The truck bed houses a chrome-plated sports bar and the large lion logo makes this pickup unmistakable to those who are following behind.

Under The Hood

Peugeot has stuck a 1.9-liter turbocharged diesel engine to power this eye-catching beast. And being a pickup truck, we believe this is the perfect engine choice. This turbodiesel makes 150 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, which puts it in line with the competition.

This powerplant is paired with a 6-speed automatic gearbox for smooth and efficient power delivery. Buyers have the option of picking between a 2WD or 4WD model, depending on their needs.

Features And Practicality

Being a modern pickup truck, the Landtrek comes packed to the brim with the latest technological features. A huge 10-inch infotainment system with touch functionality dominates the interior. This high-tech system supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it ideal for media consumption on long journeys.

The interior of the Landtrek can comfortably seat five individuals. There is ample head and leg room, and plenty of storage space as well.

Peugeot has outfitted this pickup truck with some great safety and off-roading features. Some of the most noteworthy ones include,

Stability control
Trailer-Sway Control
Traction Control
Hill Assist Control
Hill Descent Control
