2010 Peugeot RCZ GT THP200

Oops, you meant the FWD TT. My bad.

Did automovil test the FWD TT?

Not according to Inta's result (see previous post). It says that both have the same 0-400 and 0-1000 time. Granted, the RCZ cheats a bit by having more power on wheel than peugeot said it would have, but still, the TT is more powerful and has 4WD traction, yet the RCZ still manages to match the TT in acceleration and INTA lap times. How do you explain that?

How can a TT be way better than this?
BMW developed engine with available up to 212hp with peugeot sports/john cooper works kit. Leather stitched dashboard. Great design, which i think is much much better than a TT. Better price. Almost exactly the same performance values.
The only con could be the public opinion of the brand

The 200hp FWD TT is better simple fact...

It is a lot quicker in the straight and on the track..

2.1s 0-160km/h different are many car length... in a sprint from 0-160km/h the TT would lead by about 40m ...thats not even in the same class..

Well, I guess it's clear now, RCZ is faster than TT, on track, in standing start acceleration, and in braking, and the TT is the more powerful one! Keep up the good work, PSA!

good looking race car.. more details get published at the AMI in Leipzig at the 9. April..

data sheet updated

Peugeot has no real sportcar, they concentrate on payable low consuption low emission cars, for them it is enough to show up in WRC Rally teach everyone a leasson about grip and go (won 9 WRC worldchampionships driver/manufactor) and leave the WRC after one or two successfull years.

It actually looks really good, but i thought it was gonna be a Nissan 370Z fighter? too bad it only has 200hp, i would liked to see have atleast 270hp, anyword on price? O, and this does 0-100kmh in 7.2s.

Audi TT is way better than this. Only the engines are good, but they were developed by BMW.
