According to Peugeot, the vehicle has undergone more than two million kilometres of testing in all weather conditions and terrain to ensure its versatility, off-road capabilities and ease of repair.[17]

Depending on the version, the Landtrek has a maximum ground clearance of 235 mm (9.3 in), approach and departure angles of 29/30 and 27/26 degrees respectively, and 600 mm (24 in) wading depth. It also has a 3.5 tonnes (7,716 lb) towing capacity.[18]

The payload exceeds 1 tonne (2,205 lb), and some versions can reach 1.2 tonnes (2,600 lb). The single cab model can be sold without the rear bumper, providing better access to the bed with the 180-degree opening tailgate. Basic models are offered with rear-wheel drive, while a 4×4 system is optional and comes equipped with 4H and 4L modes. It can also be ordered with seating for up to six in a 3+3 layout.[19]

In the planned first phase, the Landtrek would be sold in Mexico, Uruguay, Ecuador, Paraguay, Panama, Peru, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Haiti and Chile. In the second phase, it would be marketed in Argentina, Brazil and Colombia.[20]
