The Peugeot
RCZ is a coupe manufactured
by the French car company Peugeot. It was launched in April 2010 and
is available in almost 80 countries as of 2013 (except the US). It was
officially introduced at the Frankfurt Auto Show in 2009 and was
initially announced as the 308 RCZ concept car at the 2007 Frankfurt
show. It is assembled by Magna Steyr, a subsidiary of Magna
International. Petrol engines are based on Prince platform while
diesel is part of the HDi project. RCZ was developed under code name
"T75". The 30,000th RCZ came off the assembly line on June 21,
2011. The 50,000th RCZ was built on 14 February 2013 and was
painted in Moroccan Red, a new red on the facelifted vehicle. The RCZ was
originally planned as a simple concept car but it received critical acclaim,
capturing the imagination of the public and professionals. Peugeot decided to
take the leap from concept to actual car and began production. The car's lines
and style have remained very close to the original concept so as not to disappoint
public opinion, however a series of changes were made to the central dual
exhaust system which was replaced by a dual exhaust to the left of the rear
bumper. The RCZ has double-bubble roof inspired by Zagato.
