Peugeot announces Le Mans versions of models 208, 308, 408, 3008, and 5008

Peugeot has announced special editions of several models—208, 308, 408, 3008, and 5008—for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. These versions will be based on the GT trim package and feature unique styling details with a combination of black and blue accents inspired by the race. The special editions are scheduled to launch during the 2027 Le Mans event. Marketing head Phil York emphasized that these models will offer more than just design, including technology features. Details regarding equipment and powertrains will be released later, likely involving plug-in hybrid or electric variants.

Specijalno izdanje Peugeot 24 Hours Le Mans bit će dostupno za hatchback model 208, hatchback i karavan model 308, fastback 408, kao i za SUV modele 3008 i 5008. Drugim riječima, jedino modeli Rifter i Traveller (kombiji) ostaju bez ove posebne verzije.

Ova specijalna izdanja bit će bazirana na paketu opreme GT za odgovarajuće modele. Cijela linija se pojavila u zvaničnom teaseru godinu dana prije komercijalnog lansiranja, koje je planirano za 24 sata Le Mansa u 2027. godini.

Peugeot obećava "unikatne" stilske detalje i kombinaciju "elegantne crne" boje s prepoznatljivom plavom nijansom slavne utrke. Ipak, u tamnom teaseru nije moguće uočiti razlike u odnosu na GT verzije postojećih modela.

Phil York, šef marketinga i komunikacija Peugeota, govorio je za Auto Express o nadolazećim specijalnim modelima. Rekao je da Le Mans izdanje predstavlja "drugačiji paket" u odnosu na GTi, ali tvrdi da će donijeti "pravu vrijednost za kupca".

"Nećemo to svesti samo na dizajn, mora biti kompletan paket. Želimo tehnologiju", rekao je on, iako se zvanična objava fokusira na dizajnerski aspekt specijalnih izdanja.

Oprema i pogonski sklopovi nadolazećih modela bit će objavljeni kasnije, međutim, postoji velika vjerovatnoća da će biti zasnovani na plug-in hibridnim ili električnim verzijama svakog modela, koje obično imaju najviše snage.

Ova objava dolazi nakon 94. izdanja utrke 24 sata Le Mansa. Toyota Racing se vratio na vrh pobjedničkog podijuma sa sjajnim rezultatom, a to su prvo i treće mjesto, dok je BMW M završio na drugom mjestu, a Cadillac na četvrtom. Bio je to vikend pun drame koji je označio kraj Ferrarijeve trogodišnje pobjedničke serije, pri čemu je jedini preostali 499P Hypercar završio na petom mjestu, odmah ispred Alpinea A424. U međuvremenu, unaprijeđeni Peugeot 9X8 hibridni hypercar zauzeo je 11. i 12. mjesto.
