Peugeot is developing a new mid-size SUV for the Chinese car market. The SUV will be called Peugeot 6008 and it is expected to debut in 2015. The 6008 is based on the new PSA EMP2 flexible platform, which is available with a wheelbase of 2620mm, 2840mm, or 2900mm.

Power will come from a 163hp 1.6 liter turbocharged four cylinder and from a new V6 engine that is currently under development especially for Asian markets. Price will start around 200.000 yuan and end around 250.000 yuan.

The Peugeot 6008 SUV will be made in China by the Dongfeng-PSA joint venture. Currently, Dongfeng-PSA makes only one SUV, the Peugeot 3008. In the future the JV will also manufacture the 2008 and 4008, besides the 6008.
