2009 Peugeot RC Hybrid Electric Concept Review

Peugeot has just announced an exciting new concept electric/gas hybrid sports sedan, which they are only calling the “Peugeot RC…” until its more complete introduction at the Paris International Motor Show very soon.

The new 2009 Peugeot RC concept continues the design language set out by the Peugeot RC ♠ and RC ♦ concepts released in 2006, striking cars that ended up showing bits and pieces of Peugeot’s actual new design language.

Information is sparse on the new Peugeot electric sports sedan concept, possibly because as what Peugeot calls a “working laboratory,” it hasn’t completely been… finished yet.

The new Peugeot RC… whatever it ends up being called… concept is part of a growing trend among automakers toward developing and offering performance electric or hybrid electric sports cars. While every driver on the road would love the fuel economy of a Toyota Prius, many drivers will not settle for 10 second 0-60 times.

It is an exciting time in the automotive industry, as electric, hydrogen-burning and fuel cell technologies have left the stage of vaporware and are now beginning to become available in consumer cars. These fuel efficient performance cars have moved past the stage of dreams to realities, and the next step is to bring them to the stage of profitability and marketability.

Similar to the drivetrain model used in the upcoming Chevy Volt, the 2009 Peugeot RC concept promises the ability to run solely off electric power for extended periods, with a hybrid electric powertrain filling in the gaps when extra range is needed.

While it is clear from the wishful-thinking design that the Peugeot RC concept is a good distance from being built, the fact that another large player in the car business is actively developing this technology is a cause for excitement among tree huggers and autocrossers alike.
