Case Study: Peugeot Group achieves visually impactful, durable electric-vehicle interiors with Stratasys 3DFashion™ direct-to-textile 3D printing

Peugeot Drives Car Interior Design Revolution with Stratasys 3DFashion

Peugeot Group’s Advanced Design Team needed to modernize the Inception Concept’s minimalistic electric-vehicle interior by extending velvet from the seats to the floor and creating pronounced height/thickness and light‑reactive micro‑architectures — effects that traditional embellishment methods and protective overlays could not achieve. To meet this challenge, Peugeot Group worked with Stratasys, employing Stratasys 3DFashion technology and the J850 TechStyle 3D printer for direct‑to‑textile printing onto flexible velvet.

Stratasys printed semi‑transparent “micro‑architectures” directly onto 100% recycled polyester velvet, producing immersive seats and seamless floor coverage with high‑resolution 3D patterns. The Stratasys solution improved durability and production efficiency, eliminated the need for molds, and enabled easy file modification and reprinting — accelerating iterations and supporting the industrialization of Peugeot Group’s concept interior.
