BEGINNING IN MARCH, THE FLUX PROJECT
WILL BE REPLICATED TO FULL SCALE
AND PRESENTED IN PEUGEOT’S BOOTH FOR
THE NEXT FRANKFURT AUTO SHOW IN THIS
MONTH.
FROM DESIGNER MIHAI PANITESCU:
MY INTENTION WAS TO DESIGN A VEHICLE
THAT PLEASES IT'S OCCUPANTS IN
EVERY WAY. IT'S VERSATILITY COMBINED
WITH IT'S SPORTINESS AND THE ABILITY TO
USE IT IN DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS ARE IN
MY OPINION SOME OF THE VEHICLE'S
STRONG POINTS.
THE NAME FLUX WAS INSPIRED BY THE
CONTINUOUS CHANGE AND FLOW OF OUR
DAILY LIVES DURING WORK AND PLAY.
