Mid-September: Peugeot's RCZ Sports Car is up to make its final debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show


Peugeot's RCZ sports car is up to make its final debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in mid-September. First unveiled as a concept two years ago, this unique model with such singular shape houses some remarkable technology: F'rinstance, an active rear spoiler, a Twin-Scroll turbocharger, direct petrol injection, variable valve lift and variable valve timing, Hill Assist to facilitate maneuvers on steep gradients, an intelligent traction control system (ASR), electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) and emergency brake assist (EBA). There's also a concept RCZ Hybrid4 which uses a 120 kW 2.0-liter HDi FAP diesel engine at the front and a 27 kW electric motor at the rear to deliver 70 mpg.
