The Peugeot EX1 Concept is an electric concept roadster from the French automaker Peugeot, introduced at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. It has two electric motors that provide 250 kW (335 hp) and 480 N⋅m (354 lbf⋅ft) of torque.[1]

Übersicht

As part of Peugeot’s 200th anniversary celebrations, the brand’s design team created the electrically powered concept car.[2]

Design

Previous concept cars from Peugeot included the Asphalte and the 20Cup, as well as the 2010 SR1, whose design cues were echoed in the EX1. The EX1 is a 2-door roadster that is shaped like a “water droplet”, with a rear section built around two closely set rear wheels.

Rear view

The monocoque body structure is manufactured from a carbon/honeycomb composite to optimize weight and rigidity. The car is 0.90 meters (3.0 feet) high and 1.77 meters (5.8 feet) wide.

Performance

The EX1 broke six speed records for a vehicle weighing less than 1,000 kg (2,200 lb). From a standing start, the EX1 recorded the following times: 1/8 mile (8.89s), 1/4 mile (14.4s), 500m (16.81s), 1/2 mile (23.85s), 1000m (28.16s), and 1 mile (41.09s).[3] It recorded a 0–60 mph (0–97 km/h) run of 2.24 seconds and an overall top speed of 161 mph (259 km/h).[4]

In Taipingsi military airport in Chengdu, China, the EX1 improved upon several of those records, recording 7.08 seconds for the 1/8 mile, 12.67 seconds for the 1/4 mile, and 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.24 seconds.[5][6][7][8]
