Peugeot showcases new hybrid concept car at Paris Motor Show
The new ‘RC…’ whose full name will be revealed at the Paris Motor Show, is a hybrid concept car created by Peugeot’s stylists and engineers.
It is a ‘GT’ coupé which provides the missing link between the RC and concept cars revealed in 2002 and the 908 RC, one of the stars of the 2006 Paris Motor Show.
An accessible and versatile car with highly innovative hybrid architecture, the ‘RC’ aims for a high level of efficiency both in terms of performance (with its potential maximum power output of 313 bhp) and minimal impact on the environment (CO2 emissions of 109 g/km in the combined cycle or ZERO in electric mode).

Car parking is not “undercharged” nor is it “subsidised”. Town centre businesses are overtaxed by local authorities rates and would close or move out of town if their customers were driven away by parking charges. This would dramatically reduce the local authorities income from these lost businesses.
This government is totally out of it’s mind - car parks are expensive to park in especially town centre ones. If you use your car for business purposes you have to be near to your work place, because time means money. We all haven’t the luxury of walking / cycling.
I like that Peugeot plenty!
They need a new design direction, as the current “wide mouth frog” look is about as appealing dining on nasal excavations. I also hope that they get their ride/handling mojo back, as the 207GTi I test drove late last year had it’s steering anaesthatised and it’s shocks filled with custard. Nasty thing it was, which is why I went for an Alfa 147 Sport Q2.
