Übersicht
As part of Peugeot’s 200th anniversary celebrations, the brand’s design offices wanted to create a concept car, electrically powered.[2]
Design
Previous concept cars from Peugeot have been the Asphalte and 20Cup. The EX1 is shaped like a “water droplet”, with a rear section built around two closely set rear wheels.
The EX1 features stylistic design codes first presented on the SR1 concept in earlier 2010. The monocoque body structure is manufactured from a carbon/honeycomb composite to optimise weight and rigidity. The car is 0.90 metres high and 1.77 metres wide.
Performance
It has broken six speed records for a vehicle weighing less than 1000 kg. From a standing start, the EX1 set the following times: 1/8 mile (8.89sec), 1/4 mile (14.4s), 500m (16.81s), 1/2 mile (23.85s), 1000m (28.16s), and 1 mile (41.09s).[3] It set a 0-60 mph run in 2.24sec and an overall top speed of 161 mph.[4]
In Taipingsi military airport in Chengdu, China, the EX1 improved those records with 7.08s for 1/8mile, 12.67s for 1/4mile, and 0–100 km/h at 2.24s[5][6][7][8]
