With today’s current motor vehicle market being so competitive and flooded with choices of motor vehicle manufacturers that are constantly looking for a competitive edge. Every vehicle tries to add its own unique flair to the market.

No one is making a bigger statement than the all-new Peugeot lineup, with their distinctive advanced LED lights! All the vehicles can easily be identified by unique LED Headlamps, daytime running lights and rear taillights. All embodying the symbols of the iconic Lion. The daytime running light is very visible at first glance from the front of the vehicle. The front light has been designed to be symbolic of the sabretooth of the lion. This gives the Peugeot lineup a super aggressive and bold look yet in the same breath an extremely natural feel as the vehicle takes on the concrete jungle. From the rear a newly updated three-bar taillight has been introduced, this depicting the claw strike of the lion.

Now while all these updated styling changes may make the Peugeot lineup more distinctive than ever, they serve more than just cosmetic purposes. The high-tech LED lighting throughout the vehicle is state of the art and not only increases visibility on the roads for the driver, but they also aid in keeping the vehicle extremely visible to other motorists in all conditions. LED lights perform up to 3 times better than outdated halogens and Zenon lights. This makes sure that when you are driving with your loved ones you don’t only look stylish, but you are driving safely in one of the most visible vehicles on the road. Some of the Peugeot ranges include functional lighting features such as active headlamp assist.

The shift to LED technology also speaks to Peugeot’s commitment to producing a vehicle with low ongoing maintenance costs. This is because these lights are designed to serve a much longer life span than traditional halogens and Zenon lights. With a market full of choices and great deals, it is imperative to remember that it’s the small things that have the largest impact.

Peugeot has released the first images of its World Endurance Championship racing car but hasn’t yet confirmed when it’ll make its competitive debut.

The French brand posted the first image of the 9X8 on track on its social media channels, and it appeared to be sporting a small rear wing. It’s not yet confirmed whether the car will race with or without rear aerodynamics. However, the latest set of images once again show it without a wing, and this is believed to be the direction the programme is heading in.

The 9X8 is a successor to both the 905 of the early ’90s and 908 of the late ’00s, both of which won at Le Mans. Peugeot has yet to confirm exactly when the car will make its competitive debut but has now said it won’t be in Florida for the curtain-raising 1,000 Miles of Sebring on 18 March. Beyond that, the only official word from the manufacturer is that the pair of 9X8s “will make their maiden race appearance in the course of the season”.

Under the bodywork, the 9X8 is powered by a rear-mounted, 2.6-litre, twin-turbo, 671bhp petrol V6 engine, combined with a front-mounted 268bhp electric motor and a seven-speed sequential gearbox. Peugeot’s Hypercar driving squad, which was announced in late 2020, consists of Paul di Resta, Loic Duval, Mikkel Jensen, Kevin Magnussen, Gustavo Menezes, and Jean-Eric Vergne, with James Rossiter serving as reserve and simulator driver.

All this racing pedigree filters down to the production vehicles on showroom floors today. Contact us on 021 413 9800 or visit CMH Peugeot Cape Town at the Corner of Nelson Mandela Boulevard & Christiaan Barnard Street, Foreshore, Cape Town for further information.
