5 by Peugeot

Date: 15 Feb 2010 Comments: 0

Some people say that the name is quite ridiculous: “5 by Peugeot”. Truth is the machine is inspired by sedan models and it is a competition for Ford Mondeo and Vauxhall Insignia. It has 191.3 inches in length and 74 inches in width, with a wheelbase of 110 inches. This new Peugeot is rather staid looking compared to the other previous models. The fascia looks production ready and the massive front air dam looks great. The car has taillights that stretch into the rear quarter panels, an Insignia-esque trunk and dual exhausts. 5 by Peugeot comes with a 163 horsepower 2.0-liter HDi FAP diesel which, combined with a rear-mounted, 37-hp electric motor, brings output up to 200 hp. The system, dubbed Hybrid4, will give it the possibility to run on electricity alone for an unspecified range. The new car will be seen at Geneva Show.
