Peugeot sets sales and savings goals for Opel deal - sources

Reuters - UK Focus

LONDON/FRANKFURT/PARIS, Feb 22 (Reuters) - French carmaker PSA Group expects its planned acquisition of General Motors' Opel division to lead to combined sales of 5 million vehicles by 2022 and save as much as 2 billion euros ($2.1 billion) annually, as the talks advance towards a likely deal in early March, sources told Reuters.

PSA also plans to make swift progress on technical convergence with GM (NYSE: GM - news) 's European arm, bringing new Opel models such as the popular Corsa mini onto the Paris-based manufacturer's own vehicle architectures to slash duplication, two people with knowledge of the matter said on Wednesday.

Paris-based PSA and GM confirmed last week they were in talks over a PSA-Opel tie-up to create Europe's second-largest carmaker by sales after Volkswagen (IOB: 0P6N.IL - news) . (Reporting by Pamela Barbaglia, Arno Schuetze and Gilles Guillaume; Writing by Laurence Frost; Editing by Mark Potter)
