The 5 by car is a 200 bhp (149 kW / 203 PS), all-wheel drive luxury sedan that comes with the French brand’s Hybrid4 technology. The concept car features a 2.0 liter Hdi diesel engine with 163 bhp (122 kW / 165 PS) coupled to an electric motor (at the rear) with an additional 37 bhp (28 kW / 38 PS) . Fuel economy is 3.8 liters/100km (74.3 mpg UK) and the car’s total emissions come in at 99 g/km (zero when running on electrical power alone.)2010 5 by Peugeot Concept Hood View 588x441 2010 5 by Peugeot Concept

The contours of the exterior body flow smoothly, unruffled and without interruption or embellishment from the end of the bonnet to the top of the boot lid. All surfaces are perfectly aligned, with clearances between each element precisely determined to obtain a quality of assembly rivalling that of a goldsmith. The overall effect it creates is that of a vehicle that has been hewn from a solid block of material.

At the front, the interpretation of the Marque’s traditional feline appearance is spectacular; “LED” lights are highlighted by the use of illuminated surrounds that blend perfectly with the overall exterior body styling. The headlamps frame a unique front grille design, whose visual appearance is closely influenced by the Peugeot SR1 concept car. The innovative design of the front grille gives the impression that it is detached from the vehicle; it appears to be suspended in front of the car. The new revised Lion badge naturally takes pride of place in a specially shaped area at the front of the long aluminium bonnet.

Design-wise the model seems to borrow a little from the C6 from sister brand Citroen with its sleek lines and round ends. LED lights and 19-inch rims are also featured in the 5 by Peugeot Concept, helping make its total look seem more production-ready than pure concept fantasy, which is often a sign that the car will soon hit the streets.
