French–Japanese automobile production alliance PSA Peugeot Citroen–Mitsubishi Motors may launch an additional car production facility in Russia, Didier Alton, general director of PSMA Rus, a Russian unit of the alliance, said at a forum Wednesday.

“We are looking for possible options to cooperate with any company manufacturing cars in Russia, including Russian producers,” Alton said, adding that the alliance is not involved in talks with Russian automaker GAZ Group.

Alton did not mention any prospective partners to the alliance.

The PSA Peugeot Citroen–Mitsubishi Motors Alliance opened a car assembly plant worth about 470 million euros in the Kaluga Region in April 2010. The planned capacity of the plant is 125,000 vehicles per year.
The alliance is the second largest producer of cars in Europe after German automaker Volkswagen AG.
