The new Peugeot Quartz concept has been uncovered before making a public appearance at the Paris Motor Show next month. The vehicle is based on the EMP2 platform and has a daring exterior styling.
The most notable thing about Peugeot’s Quartz concept is its 500 hp hybrid drivetrain. The SUV is powered by a four-cylinder 1.6 THP turbocharged petrol engine rated at 270 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque and an electric motor that produces 115 hp. It also makes use of another 115 hp electric motor mounted at the back.
