2025 Peugeot Expert released with unchanged pricing, but no more manual
For the 2025 model year range, the other French brand's rival for the Ford Transit Custom and Renault Trafic kicks off with the Expert Pro Short Wheelbase with an eight-speed automatic transmission, with the manual gearbox previously offered in the City and Pro grades now dropped from the lineup.
All variants have been given exterior styling updates including new headlights, new front and rear bumpers and the latest Peugeot logo and lettering, with an additional paint colour – Titanium Grey – also added to the options list.

While the load areas are the same size as before, the changes increase the Expert's overall length by 24mm, to 4981mm for Short Wheelbase versions and 5331mm for the Long Wheelbase body style.
The interior receives a redesigned dashboard with additional storage compartments, and both a new 10-inch digital instrument cluster and 10-inch central infotainment touchscreen as standard across the range.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard, while the driver's seat offers additional manual adjustment.
Payloads have also increased, with the Short Wheelbase now offering a claimed class-leading 1350kg – up from 1280kg – and Long Wheelbase versions improving from 1237kg to 1325kg. Supplied Credit: CarExpert
There are no changes to the 110kW/370Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel that powers all versions of the Expert.
Pricing remains unchanged, but the removal of the entry-level City Short Wheelbase manual – previously priced at $43,397 before on-road costs – means the cheapest 2025 Expert variant is now the Pro Short Wheelbase, priced at $48,990 plus on-roads.
The 2025 Expert Premium Short Wheelbase remains the same at $51,990 before on-road costs, with long-wheelbase versions of both Pro and Premium adding $2500 to the list price.
As mentioned, the Expert Pro Long Wheelbase manual has also been dropped, and the 2025 Peugeot Expert lineup is in Australian showrooms now.

UEFA drop bombshell as Crystal Palace demoted
Premier League side Crystal Palace have been dropped from the Europa League to the third-tier Conference League in a multi-club ownership case. Olympique Lyonnais will now also be allowed to play in the Europa League, UEFA said on Friday, with Nottingham Forest also said to be in line for a spot in the same competition. Palace had qualified for the Europa League by winning the FA Cup last season, while Lyon reached the competition by finishing sixth in Ligue 1. A move to relegate them to France's domestic second-tier Ligue 2 over their poor finances was overturned on Wednesday, a decision UEFA's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) had been waiting for before ruling on the multi-club ownership case. "Consequently, the CFCB First Chamber pursued the assessment of the documentation submitted by Olympique Lyonnais and Crystal Palace and concluded that the clubs breached, as at March 1, 2025, the multi-club ownership criteria," UEFA said in a statement. As both Lyon and Palace had qualified for the Europa League, the French club was allowed to keep their place as they finished higher in their respective league, with Palace finishing 12th in the Premier League. The Eagle Football Group are majority owners of Lyon while their chairman John Textor also owns a controlling stake in Palace. Textor later resigned from Lyon's board of directors with Michele Kang appointed chairwoman and president. Palace said last month New York Jets co-owner Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson had signed a legally binding agreement to buy Eagle Football Holding's stake in the Premier League club, subject to approval from the Premier League. However, Palace had missed the March deadline to comply with the multi-club ownership rules. "Honestly, I am stunned. We did everything possible to separate from the club, as UEFA would ask, with a sale process that began before the deadline, and a sale that will occur well before the draw," Textor told Reuters. "Now we have sold out of a club that I love, to help Palace fans continue this dream year, only to have another off-the-pitch decision lay waste to an historic sporting victory." Lyon had been demoted by the DNCG, French football's financial watchdog, in November due to the poor state of their finances but their relegation to Ligue 2 was overturned by its appeals committee. Palace can still appeal against the decision at the Court of Arbitration for Sport but if UEFA's decision stands, the rules could allow Nottingham Forest to play in the Europa League if they fulfil the admission criteria. Forest had finished seventh last season and originally qualified for the Conference League while fifth-placed Aston Villa and Palace had qualified for the Europa League. Palace chairman Steve Parish was also shocked by the decision. "We're devastated. It's a bad day for football. It's a terrible injustice," Parish told Sky Sports. "I do believe nobody wants to see this. I don't think UEFA wants to see this. We've been locked out of a European competition on the most ridiculous technicality. Supporters of all clubs should be devastated for us. "Everyone knows we're not part of a multi-club set-up. We're caught up in a rule that wasn't put there for us. This is a ludicrous decision. We will ask the appeal court to listen to our argument."

Renault Boreal: Global version of Dacia Bigster revealed
The Dacia Bigster — the budget brand's largest SUV to date — has been given a glow up and transformed into the Renault Boreal for sale in Latin America, the Middle East and parts of Mediterranean basin. With Dacia largely confined to Europe, Renault has rebadged many models from its Romanian marque for sale in other markets, primarily Africa and Latin America. Typically this involves swapping Dacia badges for Renault ones, and maybe tweaking the grille. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The Boreal goes a step further by having completely distinct exterior panels, except for maybe the roof. Up front, the simple lines of the Bigster have given way for a split headlight treatment integrated into an egg-crate grille. Along the sides the Boreal has smoother surfacing, and a vast section of chiselled faux brushed metal trim on the D-pillar. At the back, the Boreal ditches the Bigster's awkward arrowhead tail-lights for a set that wouldn't look out of place on a Skoda. Despite these changes, the Boreal is clearly very closely related to Bigster with the two sharing the same overall shape, as well as door apertures, and both feature hidden rear door handles. The Boreal is 4556mm long, 1841mm wide, 1650mm tall, and rides on a 2702mm wheelbase. Boot space with a rear seats up is rated at 522 litres. The differences continue on the inside, with the Bigster having its own unique dashboard design where the 10.0-inch instrumentation screen flows into the 10.0-inch infotainment touchscreen. While the Bigster's interior makes a virtue of its assortment of hard, but durable plastic, the Boreal's dash has soft-touch material. The Renault also features more realistic-looking faux metal elements, leather-look seats with contrast stitching, and more generously padded armrests, at least up front. The Boreal will be made in Brazil for Latin American markets from late 2025, and in Turkey for the Middle East and Mediterranean basin some time in 2026. While the Bigster is available with a choice of mild-hybrid and hybrid drivetrains, as well as the option of all-wheel drive and a manual transmission, the Boreal will be available exclusively with a 1.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine matched with six-speed dual-clutch automated transmission. For Boreals made in Turkey the engine develops 103kW and 240Nm, while Brazil-made models are available in petrol or FlexFuel derivatives, the latter of which can use almost any mixture of petrol and alcohol. Brazilian petrol models make 116kW, and FlexFuel variants develop 122kW and 270Nm. Available features include dual-zone climate control, a refrigerated centre bin, and a Harmon Kardon sound system. The infotainment system runs on the Android Automotive operating system with built-in Google Maps for navigation and Google Assistant voice recognition, and has access to the Google Play app store. Safety items include blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assistance, traffic sign recognition, autonomous emergency braking, safe exit monitoring, and drowsiness alerts. The Dacia Bigster (above) was launched at the end of 2024. Closely related to the third-generation Dacia Duster, both cars use the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance's CMF-B LS platform. While the Duster has been sold as a Renault in many global markets since the first generation, it has only just landed in Australia No word yet on whether the Boreal will be sold in Australia, but so far it doesn't look like the car will be produced in right-hand drive.
