The new Peugeot RC aims to match hybrid economy with high performance and it will be on view at the Paris Motor Show later this month.

The '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.

The 'RC…' is claimed to be an accessible and versatile car, with four doors, four seats and highly innovative hybrid architecture. Its aim: a very high level of efficiency both in terms of performance (with its potential maximum power output of 313bhp) and minimal impact on the environment (CO2 emissions of 109 g/km in the combined cycle or ZERO in electric mode).

It is an exciting, eco-efficient vehicle which has all the characteristics that also ensure great driving enjoyment; a synthesis of ideas which demonstrates that respect for the environment and driving pleasure can be compatible.
