This is the Peugeot EX1, a two-seat electric roadster idea auto constructed to celebrate the French brand’s 200th anniversary. Along with the EX1 will let Peugeot usher in its bicentennial in style as it is just notched up a number of electric car globe information.
It is practically totally carbonfibre, along with the rear-hinged doors include the seats, so you sit on the buckets prior to swinging your whole body into the metal and leather-lined cockpit. Two electric motors (1 front, 1 rear) offer the energy. Each motor produces a
continuous 102bhp and 140lb ft, but also peaks of 170bhp and 177lb ft, and as all four wheels are driven the EX1 is four-wheel drive. The 750kg kerbweight and 340bhp peak energy equate to a 3.6 second 0-62mph run.
And those data? Within the really precise FIA category A, group 8, class 2, the EX1 has bested a number of runs set by an electrical Opel back in 1971, and notched up a couple of all-new documents as well. The EX1 concept will probably be on display at Peugeot’s posh store around the Champs-Elysees from these days until 14 November 2010, and after that it’s off to China to set some more globe information.
