Have appeared on a forum for fans Peugeot these latest images of the Peugeot 3008, the after that proposal for people of the house crossover French, here we see portrayed in white livery. Just a few days ago we dealt with the model, emphasize style as it were “unusual” that-is-useless to deny that the most striking aspect of the car. The 3008, closely linked to the Prologue concept offered to the Paris Motor Show, will be officially presented during the year just in progress and it seems that may present a cockpit that can accommodate seven people.

Eight cars a day to be able to say with French accent, “we too consider in the GPL: Peugeot, in cooperation with the firm Canoe BRC, starts production of 207 Eco Gal, obsequious version ready with the 1.4 engine valves eight 75 horses. The thirty-year experience of BRC has brought in dowry, and a double switch to power the engine, the innovative system Sequent Plug & Drive: This ingenious cervellone regulate the gas fuel mixture, keeping it steady to changing temperatures and weather conditions, while managing the transition from one fuel to another.

The goal for 2010 is to sell 4 million vehicles worldwide, but for now the French Peugeot are still far from the goal set: during 2007 were slightly exceeded the 2 million, but to Jean-Philippe Collin has already prepared a plan to hit the target.

The expansion will focus on two fronts, the first of which is the entrance into market segments currently discovered. How does the same note Collin, Peugeot currently employs 72% of segments and niches, a share that will soon rise to 90%. Discoveries will remain only marginal areas of the market, such as sports tout court: for the medium term, anything but extreme RC-308 Z and just progresses.

Much more important will be the development of a new car diesel-hybrid engine that we will see in future years and which will form a key moment in technological journey home French.

Via.

What better opportunity to wear the dress gala? Ricercata and ammiccante, powerful but “clean”. Innovative, but especially away from stylistic excesses - from shark mouth, nose pronounced - the latest proposals. Thus “agghindata”, however, can not reveal now: here is therefore a name yet partial (Peugeot RC…), made by incomplete dots suspension, and some images shrouded by a disturbing patina.

His intention, however, is well known: transpose the spirit RC, already advanced by previous interpretations (RC 2002, 908 CR 2006 and CR-Z last year), an innovative product and environmentally friendly. This concept car, in fact, is driven by an internal combustion engine - not yet announced whether gasoline or diesel - combined with an electrical.

Peugeot has also introduced a common name for versions of its ecological models. “Blue Lion” will all be able to lower emissions or equal to 130 g / km of CO2 and recyclable for 95% of its components at the end of life cycle.

Besides a total of 50 versions available, included in the range of 107, 1007, 207 and 308. Were not yet disclosed details of the engines used and price list, but surely the forthcoming exhibition in Paris will be the right occasion for a debut that, however, is late compared to competition, given that Bluemotion Volkswagen, Ford Econetic and Renault Eco2 are already list for several months.

Peugeot, however, is also working on the front of hybrid cars in combination with engines and HDI has recently spoken of a concrete collaboration with Mitsubishi to launch a product edge on the market, increasingly interested in these solutions.

Let’s say the white is not his color. And that the photo of three quarters earlier does not do justice. Maybe it would be better to stop here… Peugeot spreads the first images of the 308 Coupe Cabriolet now classic version open top roof with rigid foldable.

As usual in this type of vehicles, the tail is the most questionable the largest footprint to stow the hard top requires designers to develop solutions aesthetic rather daring. On this version, the volume rear proves so voluminous, but almost flat and horizontal the various grooves contribute, together upon to V, to lighten the picture.

Even the house of roaring lion will have its sedan coupe: 608 not only will replace the little lucky 607, but setup as a new opponent for the VW Passat cc and the future Mondeo coupe.

The style of French new car should rely on what was seen on the beautiful 308 RC Z concept and production throughout the last Peugeot. The 608, of which we propose a render, will be presented with good chances to lounge in Paris at the end of the year. Particular attention will be paid to design, materials and the assembling of the Interior for not having inferiority complex with competitors teutoniche.

Peugeot has produced a limited edition called 207 Le Mans, in honor of the participation of 908 FAP V12 TDI to the classic French 24. The announcement comes, curiously, shortly after the victory dell’avversaria Audi. Peugeot has decided to characterize the sporting 207 engines in 1.6 THP turbo petrol 150Cv and 1.6 HDI FAP 110Cv.

The 2000 samples have provided colour white or black, chrome grille, headlights bruniti system with AFS, mouldings in color bodywork and custom decals. A red stripe runs bonnet and roof of the car, ending on the rear spoiler. From the sister sport 207 GTi 175Cv arrive try to find 17 “, sport seats and aluminum trim for the steering wheel, pedals and dashboard.
