Peugeot Vision Gran Turismo Concept Revealed

Writer

Peugeot is the latest automaker to introduce a concept car for Gran Turismo 6 on PlayStation 3. Like other concepts, the Peugeot Vision Gran Turismo concept features extreme styling and near impossible power-to-weight ratio for a production car.

Powered by an 875-hp 3.2-liter turbocharged V-6, a six-speed manual sends power to all four wheels. With a curb weight of just 1925 pounds, the Peugeot Vision Gran Tursimo concept is said to have a power-to-weight ratio of just 2.2 pounds per horsepower (1 kg: 1hp). Peugeot claims the Vision Gran Turismo concept can hit 62 mph in just 1.73 seconds.

Massive Brembo brakes featuring 15-inch front and 13.3-inch rear carbon rotors slow the concept down. Those giant brakes hide behind 22-inch alloy wheels in front and 23-inch alloy wheels in back. The low slung concept is just 41 inches tall. The sleek shape is said to provide enough downforce to not need any external aerodynamic aides.

The Peugeot Vision Gran Turismo concept will be available soon as a free download for Gran Turismo 6.
