NEW CAR: Peugeot’s Paris Power Play
So what’s the 907 all about then? Here’s the official line from Peugeot: “It is a GT coupé, created with reference to the past, the present and the future. The 907 is a two-seater coupé, modern but also classic.” These ‘classic’ elements of the car stem from the styling, with its sculpted and elegant shape, and pushed-back cockpit. This ’swept’ cockpit leaves an expansive bonnet that is home to a glazed panel revealing twelve intake ‘trumpets’ set into the bonnet, adding a little eye-candy to proceedings. The roof and front windscreen form a single glazed area, while retro-themed side vents are situated in the front wings and rear quarter panels, and a retractable rear spoiler is incorporated in the tailgate, as is a chunky air diffuser.
All told, the 907 concept measures 1.88 metres wide and 4.37 metres long, while a 1.21 metre height ensures that it cuts through the wind at high speed. And talk about speed - this Peugeot is no mild-mannered gentleman. With a Lamborghini Murcielago-rivalling 6.0-litre V12 providing 368kW of power (500hp), the 1400kg 907 will be able to surpass the 300km/h mark, and though no official figures have been supplied, expect the 0-100km/h sprint to take place in roughly 4.0 seconds flat.

Re: NEW CAR: Peugeot’s Paris Power Play
You're in the 1007's forum
For the 907, it's a wonderful car, but alas thay won't produce it. It's a shame, but Peugeot remains a classic brand and PSA a classic group. Very good think for the economics results of the company, though, there are not models very exceptionnal. In they price range (10 000 to 60 000 Euros - USD 12 to 75 000), they are very good, but we are waiting for a luxury Peugeot. Of course, as they saw the "success" of the Phaeton, they are not in this politics... but why not a big SUV like the Touareg as Renault is going to do.

Re: NEW CAR: Peugeot’s Paris Power Play
Thread moved to the Nonspecific forum.
To be honest I don't really like the design of the 907, I think the rear end is too simple and not very attractive, unlike the front end. What I really think is nice about it is the panoramic glass roof, which is actually the windshield. |
