I-PSA, inkampani engumzali yakwaPeugeot, isezingxoxweni zokuthenga i-Opel-Vauxhall

IZINHLELO zikaGM Holden zokuthenga izinhlobo ezintsha ezinkampanini ezingaphansi kwayo e-Europe zingase zibe nemibuzo ngemuva kwezindaba zayizolo zokuthi inkampani engabazali bakwaPeugeot neCitroen, iPSA Group, isezingxoxweni zokuthenga izinkampani ezingaphansi kwe-Opel neVauxhall.

I-General Motors - umnikazi wemikhiqizo yezimoto i-Holden, i-Opel ne-Vauxhall - kanye neqembu laseFrance i-PSA bakhiphe isitatimende izolo ebusuku bememezela ukuthi "bahlola izinhlelo eziningi zamasu zokuthuthukisa inzuzo nokusebenza kahle, okuhlanganisa nokutholakala okungenzeka kwe-Opel."

Yize i-PSA iveze ukuthi “asikho isiqiniseko sokuthi kuzofinyelelwa esivumelwaneni,” i-PSA kanye neGM bekwaziwa ukuthi basebenzisane ezinhlelweni kusukela kwasayinwa isivumelwano sombimbi ngo-2012.

Uma iPSA ikwazile ukulawula i-Opel-Vauxhall, izogcina isikhundla sePSA Group njengenkampani yesishiyagalolunye ngobukhulu emhlabeni, kodwa isondele kweyesishiyagalombili kwaHonda ngokukhiqiza izimoto ezingu-4.3 million minyaka yonke. Ukuthengiswa konyaka okuhlanganisiwe kwe-PSA-Opel-Vauxhall, ngokusekelwe ezibalweni zika-2016, kuzoba izimoto ezilinganiselwa ezigidini ezingu-4.15.

Lesi simemezelo cishe siza njengoba i-GM ibike ukulahlekelwa okulandelanayo kweshumi nesithupha ngonyaka kusukela ekusebenzeni kwayo kwe-Opel-Vauxhall yase-Europe, nakuba ukwethulwa kwe-Astra entsha yokuthengisa okuthuthukisiwe futhi kwehlise nokulahlekelwa ku-US$257 million (AU$335 million).

Lesi sinyathelo mancane amathuba okuthi siphazamise izivumelwano zokunikezwa kwempahla zesikhashana ze-Holden.

I-GM ithe ibingeke isebenze kahle kwezezimali kodwa ithintwa umthelela wezezimali wevoti lase-UK leBrexit.

Ukuthathwa kwe-Opel-Vauxhall PSA kuzothinta i-Holden, encike ezimbonini zase-Europe ukuthi ihlinzeke ngezinhlobo eziningi zenethiwekhi yayo yase-Australia njengoba inciphisa ukukhiqizwa e-Australia kulo nyaka.

Isizukulwane esizayo i-Astra neCommodore esuselwe kwi-Opel Insignia, ezokwethulwa e-Europe embukisweni wezimoto iGeneva Motor Show ngenyanga ezayo, ingase ingene ngaphansi kokulawulwa yiPSA uma uGM enikezela ngezimboni kuPSA.

Kodwa lesi sinyathelo mancane amathuba okuthi siphazamise izivumelwano zokuhlinzekwa kwempahla zesikhashana ze-Holden, njengoba bobabili i-PSA kanye ne-GM bengathanda ukugcina amanani okukhiqiza kanye nemali engenayo yezitshalo.

Umqondisi wezokuxhumana kwa-Holden u-Sean Poppitt uthe i-GM isazibophezele kuhlobo lwe-Holden e-Australia futhi u-Holden akalindele noma yiziphi izinguquko kuphothifoliyo yezimoto zika-Holden.

"Njengamanje sigxile ekukhuphuleni i-Astra futhi silungiselela ukwethula isizukulwane esilandelayo seCommodore ngo-2018," esho.

Nakuba imininingwane yanoma yiluphi uhlobo lobunikazi obusha igcinwa ifihliwe, i-GM ingase igcine ingxenye enkulu ebhizinisini elisha laseYurophu.

Kusukela ngo-2012, i-PSA kanye ne-GM bebesebenza ndawonye ezinhlelweni zezimoto ezintsha emzamweni wokunciphisa izindleko, naphezu kokuthi i-GM ithengisa ingxenye yayo yamaphesenti angu-7.0 ku-PSA kuhulumeni waseFrance ngo-2013.

Ama-SUV amabili amasha e-Opel/Vauxhall asekelwe kumapulatifomu e-PSA, okuhlanganisa ne-Crossland X encane yase-Peugeot ka-2008 eyethulwe ngoJanuwari kanye ne-Grandland X ephakathi ngo-3008 ezodalulwa maduze.

I-Opel-Vauxhall ne-PSA ziye zalahlekelwa kakhulu ngokwezimali eminyakeni yamuva nje. I-PSA yahlengwa nguhulumeni waseFrance kanye nozakwethu we-PSA waseShayina i-Dongfeng Motor, owathola u-13% wenkampani ngo-2013.

Kungenzeka ukuthi i-Dongfeng iphokophela ukuthi ithathe izintambo, njengoba mancane amathuba okuthi uhulumeni waseFrance noma umndeni wakwaPeugeot, ophethe u-14% we-PSA, uzoxhasa ngemali ukunwetshwa kwe-Opel-Vauxhall.

Ngonyaka odlule, iDongfeng ikhiqize yaphinde yadayisa izimoto ezingu-618,000 1.93 iCitroen, Peugeot neDS eChina nokuyenze ibe imakethe yesibili ngobukhulu kuPSA ilandela i-Europe njengoba kudayiswe ngo-2016 million ngo-XNUMX.
