PEUGEOT AND ROLAND GARROS

It was in 1984 that PEUGEOT arrived at the ‘VIP Village’, a year that would mark the start of a partnership between the Brand and the French Tennis Federation which now celebrates its 31st anniversary.

From the start of the 2015 Roland Garros French Open, which takes place between 19th May and 7th June, PEUGEOT, as official partner, will provide a fleet of vehicles for the movements of players, VIPs and public throughout the fortnight.

PEUGEOT AND NOVAK DJOKOVIC

PEUGEOT chose Novak Djokovic, a worldwide tennis icon, as its international Ambassador in 2014, in a year that also marked the 30th anniversary of the Brand’s partnership with Roland Garros, sponsor of the French Open Tennis Championship.

Novak Djokovic is known the world over for his outstanding tennis achievements and embodies the PEUGEOT Brand values of: Excellence, Allure and Emotion.

The three-year partnership agreement with Novak Djokovic allows the use of his image in all of the Brand’s activities, on all media and in all territories. The PEUGEOT Brand appears on Novak Djokovic’s left sleeve in all of the tournaments he enters.

PEUGEOT AND ROLAND GARROS SPECIAL EDITIONS

It was in 1989 that PEUGEOT introduced its first two Roland Garros trimmed vehicles with the 205 and the 405 estate. Over the next 26 years, all of the special editions have been specially developed in partnership with Roland Garros, and the models and body styles chosen have been those that most closely match the image of tennis and in particular the image of Roland Garros at the French Open.
