Is performance compatible with the environment?

At the Paris Motor Show Peugeot introduces a new hybrid concept

Fotogallery It features 313 hp, 109 g/Km of CO2 emissions in the standard and mixed modes, none in the electric one. This is Peugeot’s target in the attempt of combining performance and environmental protection.

It is a car which reflects all the experience and passion of the Peugeot staff in making advanced and responsible technologies available to a wide range of customers: 4 doors, 4 seats and above all a hybrid powertrain designed in a totally innovative way.

It is a foregone evolution of the 2002 “picche” RC and “quadri” RC concept cars as well as the 908 RC car exhibited at the Paris Motor Show in 2006; it is a sort of laboratory which shows the way that the French automaker means to follow as far as style and technological solutions are concerned.

The name will be announced at the Paris Motor Show due to open early in October.
