Peugeot's home motor show is coming up and it is a show they are unlikely to take lightly. In preparation for the event the French manufacturer has released the first images of a new concept they will be unveiling at the Paris Motor Show. The full name of the concept is yet to be divulged, so in the meantime we will have to make do with “RC...”.
The model is a GT Coupe which features four seats and a highly innovative hybrid architecture , it represents the missing link between the RC Concept car unveiled back in 2002 and the Peugeot 908 RC from the 2006 Paris Motor Show.
Potential power output is 313bhp and the effect on environment is kept to a minimum with CO2 emissions of 109g/km when driving in combined mode, this figure goes down to zero in full electric mode.
Many of Peugeot's future ideas have been included in the model and it could be the first step into presenting the company's new brand identity which is likely to be focused on a more aggressive and sporty product line up.
