Peugeot has launched a facelift for the Landtrek, almost five years after its debut. The midsize pickup benefits from minor exterior and interior tweaks, alongside the addition of a new 2.2-liter turbodiesel powertrain option.
The Peugeot Landtrek shares its ladder-frame underpinnings with the Kaicene F70 and Changan Lantazhe pickups from China. It also shares several components with the Fiat Titano twin, which was introduced earlier this year.

The updated truck’s most notable change is a restyled front grille with Peugeot’s new badge. Designers got rid of the chrome accents, opting for a dark grille with a new pattern. The profile is carried over, while the rear end features a redesigned bumper and modern Peugeot lettering on the tailgate.
More Powerful Diesel
The big news is the new 2.2-liter Multijet four-cylinder turbodiesel engine, which is good for 197 hp (147 kW / 200 PS) and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque. The mill is exclusively available with a permanent 4WD system, and can be mated to either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Furthermore, it offers more payload capacity than before, rated at 1,400 kg (3,086 pounds) and 3,500 kg (7,716 pounds) of towing capacity.
The rest of the lineup is carried over, including the 1.9-liter diesel with 148 hp (110 kW / 150 PS), and the more potent 2.4-liter gasoline engine with 207 hp (154 kW / 210 PS). These send power to either the rear or to all four wheels, depending on the trim.
New Tech And Safety Features
The interior now features a new 7-inch digital instrument cluster, joining the 10-inch infotainment display. The steering wheel also received the new Peugeot emblem, while safety equipment now includes more sophisticated ADAS such as the adaptive cruise control with stop & go and the blind spot detection – although these are only available with the new turbodiesel powertrain.
As with its predecessor, the Landtrek is available in single cabin and double cabin bodystyles, measuring 5.39 m (212.2 inches) and 5.33 m (209.9 inches) long respectively. The interior can carry up to six passengers, thanks to a modular bench seat option at the front. The rear bed is described as the “most spacious” in the segment and can be retrofitted with various accessories including a glazed hard-top.
The Peugeot Landtrek is sold in 40 markets around the world, with most of them in Africa, the Middle East, and South America.
