2014 Peugeot RCZ R – The fastest production car brand
Front-wheel drive and 270 hp in principle a combination appropriate to a little … unless that sport is practically done from a version of competition.
Tips:
The 2014 Peugeot RCZ R shown in its interior a sporty look with a steering wheel of small size, short shifter and precise details in red, pedal set in aluminum and type banquet seats.
The engine is a 1.6 THP capable of yielding 270 hp which is a specified 170 hp per liter which allows power to accelerate from 0-100 km / h in 5.9 seconds. The torque peak of 330 Nm is available between these being 1,900 and 5,500 rpm. The weight of this version R stands around 1270 kg , achieving thus a weight / power ratio of 4.7 kg. To minimize power loss to sink the throttle coming out of corners, the 2014 Peugeot RCZ R features a Torsen limited slip differential.
During the four laps we could give the demanding circuit of Jarama we saw several things: first, that despite the tremendous power of the model was not the front axle of pulling in excess of the steering wheel.
The driver, of course, has to have certain amount of pilot to squeeze in good mechanical thrust part, but does not feel like a tamer overcome by the beast. Sign in curves with enough acceleration to output only requires patience to not rush ahead of time and hold a steering wheel firmly enough to not want to run away with the appearance of the potential. On the other hand the presence of so much potential not supposed to be driving a car uncomfortable; within the passenger compartment will be a great comfort much appreciated by those who have the only vehicle in this journal is retained.
The braking system is made on the front axle by 380 mm ventilated discs and aluminum calipers with four pistons, allowing you to decelerate from 130 to 0 km / h from 61 meters. Again, check this aspect fatigue noteworthy, considering what we were rolling in circuit is quite remarkable.
According to official data of the mark, the 2014 Peugeot RCZ R only needs 6.3 liters to travel 100 kilometers and its emissions are 145 g / km of CO2. But do not expect such use if you just want to check the actual performance of the model, a sports car with 270 hp has a lot more thirsty when asked to work even at half load. However, it is incredible to see the evolution of the new engines in this regard, the presence of the turbo and variable valve timing and an amazing overall work on all mechanical elements make possible a validated data that would be unthinkable just five years ago. As unthinkable as difficult to obtain in normal driving … but that happens with almost all vehicles.
The price to pay to acquire part from 42,900 Euros.
