China’s Dongfeng Plans Partial Sale Of PSA Stake: Report
China's Dongfeng Motor will likely trim its stake in Peugeot owner PSA after hiring banks to study options, people close to the matter said, in a move that could ease the French carmaker's planned merger with Fiat Chrysler (FCA). Dongfeng has a 12.2% equity stake in the French carmaker, and would have about half of that in the combined entity formed by FCA and PSA, which announced in October a tie-up to create the world's fourth-biggest automaker.

PSA declined to comment while … [Read more...] about China’s Dongfeng Plans Partial Sale Of PSA Stake: Report

Driven by French aeronaut and president of the Solar Impulse Foundation, Bertrand Piccard, the car completed 778 kilometers (483.4 miles) across northern France on a single refuel, and still had 49 km (30.4 miles) of range left at the end of the journey.The journey began at the FaHyence hydrogen station in Sarreguemines on Monday 25 November, a place chosen because of the Grand Est Region's commitment to responsible mobility, concluding the next day at the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace in Le Bourget near Paris.
