Peugeot uses “RC”to designate sports models in its range. The new RC concept, the full name of which will be introduced at Paris, “fills the gap” between the RC ♠ and ♦ concept cars revealed in 2002 and the 908 RC introduced in 2006, according to Peugeot.
The 908 RC was a luxury four-door equipped with the Peugeot V12 HDi DPFS diesel engine, which went on to power the racing version of the 908 in 2007. The RC ♠ was fitted with a 2.0-liter, 133 kW gasoline engine; the RC ♦ with a 2.2-liter, 129 kW diesel.
The new hybrid RC is a four-door GT coupé designed to provide a very high level of efficiency both in terms of performance (with 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).
