Peugeot 907 Concept top speed

The Peugeot 907 is a concept car from Peugeot. Revealed first at the Paris motor show in 2003, the car was created by styling chief Gérard Welter and designer Jean-Christophe Bolle-Reddat to celebrate the closure of the firm's 40- year-old design centre at La Garenne, and the opening of a new one at Vélizy. The car wasn't designed to go into production, but just to be a prototype for featuring Peugeot's new designing techniques. The engine mounted just behind the front wheels and side exhausts exit behind each of the front wheels. Unlike many concepts, the 907 was capable of being driven like a real car. Under the bonnet, two 3.0-litre V6 engines are joined together to form a 500bhp V12. The monocoque body is made of carbon fiber, and there's double-wishbone suspension all round, while a sequential-shift transmission distributes power to the rear wheels. The arcing windscreen continues upwards to form the roof, while the bonnet has a see-through perspex insert that reveals the engine's 12 intake trumpets.
