In 1998, PSA entered into a joint venture with the Ford Motor Company to produce a range of new diesel engines. The joint venture makes identical engines which are fitted to a variety vehicles from a range of car manufactures. The engines are assembled in production plants in the cities of Trémery and Douvrin in France, Dagenham in England, and the Volvo Engine Plant in Skövde Sweden.
Half of the group's vehicles are fitted with an HDi diesel engine: in 2007 this amounted to approximately 1.8 million vehicles.
As a result of a cooperation between BMW Group and PSA, the MINI One D and the MINI Cooper D are also fitted with PSA-made HDi engines.[1]
