When it comes to France, the first thing people think of is romance and red wine. It is just as natural to think of fashion when talking about Milan. In the field of automobiles, most people think of American and German cars. Few people would think of French cars, but in the car market, there is a brand with a very unique personality, which is Peugeot, the largest car company in France. Peugeot has a long history. Peugeot was founded in 1896 until it merged with Citro?n in 1976. However, the Peugeot brand logo was produced in 1847, so today I will introduce the Peugeot car logo.

There is a saying that a car logo is the face of a car. Consumers rely on the car’s logo to identify the car. Peugeot’s car logo has a history of nearly 150 years, and many people recognize the Peugeot’s car logo. They all thought it was cute, it was a little lion, but the Peugeot logo at the beginning was a very ferocious big lion. In 1810, the earliest founder of Peugeot started a business selling tools, such as saws, etc. As the business grew, the issue of registered trademarks naturally came to mind. As soon as the brothers put their minds together, they chose to use the family's lion pattern. Because it is a family symbol and the lion is as sharp as a tool, the two felt it was a perfect trademark, so in the end a lion on an arrow became their trademark. Later, the two passed the business to their children. However, the two children had different business ideas, so they parted ways. One of them founded Peugeot and used the lion pattern as the car trademark.

The original Peugeot trademark was exactly the same as the Rolls-Royce trademark. It used a three-dimensional car logo, which was a small statue of a lion's head. It was made of copper, lifelike and very personal. The car logo stood on on the water tank cover; later it was replaced by a roaring lion and placed on the top of the front grille of the car. This logo was used for nearly 20 years; later in 1955, Peugeot stopped using the lion statue and replaced it with The shield-shaped Peugeot is a standing whole lion, with the English name of Peugeot added. Over time, Peugeot's brand logo has gradually changed, but it has always followed the lion pattern. In 1998, it was replaced with an abstract lion on a blue background, but the lion seemed very slow. In 2010, to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the company's founding, Peugeot changed its logo again, making the trademark more metallic, and it has been used to this day.

Peugeot's trademarks are constantly changing, and because of frequent trademark changes, Peugeot car owners always find that their car logos are different from others, so that they think they have bought a fake car. For example, some cars The lion on the logo has a tongue, but some car logos do not have a tongue. This is one of the differences. Some netizens said that the old version of the car logo has a strand of lion hair where the lion's head and tail touch, but the new version does not. In short, judging from the history of Peugeot, Peugeot's car logos vary, so you are likely to encounter different car logos on the street. As for buying a fake car, it should be impossible, unless you buy the car through the wrong channel, so it is difficult to do so. Buy a fake car.
