Peugeot Unveils RC Hybrid Concept

Peugeot has been kind enough to release these teaser images and a press release on its upcoming RC Hybrid concept vehicle which, if all goes to plan, is expected to make an appearance at this year's Paris Motor Show. And what a looker it is: with smooth elegant lines, thrusting nose and prominent Lion badge, you have got to wonder why Peugeot wasn't doing this kind of thing a long time ago.

Though purely a concept at this stage, Peugeot explains that the RC will be an accessible and versatile car with seating for four and a balance between performance and emissions. A "potential" 230kWs is listed with CO2 emissions of 109 g/km in the combined cycle, or zero when in electric mode.

What grabs most is the styling. Peugeot aesthetics are not for everyone, but there's something about this concept that really appeals. What do you think?
