Peugeot has announced the 308 RC Z concept car, a novel 2+2 coupè 2+2 with with sporting aspirations.

The front is strongly reminescent of the current Peugeot family feeling, with the “big mouth” of the radiator grille. The belt-line has a curious kink just before the b-pillar, while the roof line recalls the Nissan 350z. The roof has two retrò-looking humps. The rear is pretty clean, with a central double exhaust tube.

The sporting looks of the 308 RC Z are underlined by wide and muscular wheel arches that house 19″ lucid alloy rims with 245/40 tires.

The 308 RC Z is built using aluminium and composites, to keep the weight down to 1,200 kg. The engine is the same 4 cylinder turbo-charged 1.6-liter unit that equips the 207 RC. Thanks to its 175 ps, this engine pushes the 308 RC Z to a top speed of 235 km/h. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h takes 7.0 seconds. Average fuel consumption is 6.7 liters/100 km.

The dominant color for the interior is black, both for the laquered surfaces and for the seats. The black is contrasted by the aluminium detailing of the dashboard and of the seats.
