From now change the design on the front: the decoration of the grill of the air inlet improves with effective relief horizontal profiles black, chrome or metallic grid). Also does the same for the aesthetic treatment of the fog, now presents with small frames or profiles chrome chrome style used in the grill of the air inlet.The taillights design change and now are equipped with LED technology.

A backlit reflectors tape seems to escape vertically outwards. On the white reverse lights flashing and have a mask in relief.MotorThe Peugeot 207 RC has a 1.6 liters THP engine (1,598 cm3), 4-cylinder equipped with a maximum power of 175 hp at 6 000 rpm. It has a 16 valve cylinder head with two overhead camshafts head. This mechanism has a pair of 153 Nm at 1000 rpm. The maximum torque of 240 Nm is reached at only 1 600 rpm and this value remains unchanged until 4 500 rpm. On the other hand, continues to provide a torque of 204 Nm at 6 000 rpm. However, this torque may still increase due to an overboost function temporarily increases the engine boost pressure. It can reach and 260 Nm at the time of a strong solicitation of the accelerator. This overboost function is activated in one of three speeds exceeding full load from low revs to 5200 rpm.Thus, the Peugeot 207 RC needs only 27.8 seconds to travel 1,000 m from rest, while the step from 0 to 100 km / h is achieved in just 7.1 seconds.

As regards the pressurized tube hydraulic shock absorbers to 5 bar, structurally identical to the rest of the range, obey laws specifically studied for the 207 equipped with this engine. Similarly, the tension of the front and rear springs are increased in order to give the frame the most effective in terms of driving behavior.The power steering is electric. The braking is secured at the front by specific ventilated discs 302mm in diameter and 26 mm thick. These stirrups are brake discs with a diameter increased to 57 mm. Solid discs of 249 x 9 mm used in the rear.A system ESP (Electronic Stability Program) Teves MK60 is equipped standard version. It integrates an ABS, an Electronic Brake Distribution (REF), an emergency braking assistance (EBA), a antiderrapamiento system (ASR) and stability control (CDS), which detects any opening of oversteer or understeer. Finally, it enables the integration of any new system, the SSP (see section on safety). The ESP system and its functions (EBA, ASR, CDS) are completely disconnected, in order to allow a demanding clientele and experience to fully exploit the capabilities of the 207 RC.

The 207 RC will be launched at the beginning of the spring and will write the next chapter in Peugeot’s history of small performance cars, such as the 205 GTi of the 1980s and, more recently, the 206 RC. Both of these cars especially delighted enthusiasts with their pure driving enjoyment and provoked much jealousy from drivers of less sporty versions.

The 207 RC is the modern evolution of a compact vehicle with a strong sporting temperament. The sophisticated technology fitted to the car is a result of Peugeot’s expertise in building this type of vehicle. It is a very multitalented car which is easy to live with on a day-to-day basis, whilst still able to provide a driving experience to satisfy the “enthusiast in everyone”.

Painted in white, the 207 S16 can be ordered with livery (at no extra cost) that resembles Kris Meeke’s winning 207 S2000. Add to that a 207 RC Cup bodykit that features front and rear spoilers, sideskirts and an imitation rear diffuser, as well as 17-inch Hockenheim wheels and you’ve got the ideal recipe for a sporty-looking hatch.

And that’s it – underneath the stickers and bodykit is a standard 207 Sport VTi with a 120bhp 1.6-litre engine. Not exactly the stuff of dreams for rally fans, the S16 is capable of 0-62mph in 10.7 seconds and can reach 125mph flat out. If I were Kris Meeke I’d be a bit miffed that they’d produced such a feeble performer – at the very least the S16 should have been based on the 207 GTI. Homologation special? Definitely not!
