Search, select, compare on Peugeot web site
With business customers primarily in mind, Peugeot has launched a new dedicated web site that allows fleet customers and company van drivers to compare key facts and figures to see which Peugeot, or competitor, is the best choice. It allows users to prioritise the key elements that affect their choice, including price, GVW, load length and payload.By visiting peugeotcompare.co.uk potential customers can select the van, or car, option and enter the simple-to-navigate site with sliding adjustable scales at the top to determine the levels of importance of the four key criteria. As the sliders are moved, so the model choice increases or decreases depending on the set preferences.
At any point it is then possible to see the applicable Peugeot line-up displayed and then introduce the competitors within the same criteria.“At a time when we and our competitors offer our customers such a wide choice of models, I think it is important they get to evaluate the merits of our products in a way that suits them, and the ‘PeugeotCompare’ web site brings an ease of use solution to an otherwise complicated dilemma”, commented Phil Robson, director of fleet sales for Peugeot. “It also shows the strengths of all our products in a more levelled, comparable environment, and I encourage everyone to give it a try.”
