Peugeot Exalt Concept image gallery
Peugeot recently unveiled the Exalt Concept and the company states that the car "heightens sensations" and "makes an impact at first acquaintance." We can't help but agree, it is a sleek and aggressive design and with the bare hand crafted steel bodywork has a charm that is hard to ignore. The rear of the car is also covered in what the company calls a 'Shark Skin'. Animal rights activist relax because this is not the real thing, the so-called 'Shark Skin' is actually a textile material which Peugeot claims reduces the drag co-efficient owing to its grainy structure.
The Exalt is a hybrid. The electric motor when combined with its 1.6litre, four cylinder engine produces a combined power output of 344PS. The car has a six-speed automatic box which transfers power to all the four wheels of this 1700kg stunner.
We have put up a picture gallery for you to admire this car from all angles.
