The Peugeot RCZ coupe is slated for a Frankfurt debut but Peugeot has made the details public before the upcoming motor show. The French twin-door option will be available in three engine choices. A 1.6-litre THP petrol turbo 156bhp with 240Nm torque will be the lowest option and it will be mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic gearbox. The second option will be a diesel variant — 2.0-litre HDi FAP with a 6-speed manual gearbox, that outputs 163bhp and 340Nm of torque. The range topping motor will be the 1.6-litre THP which produces 200bhp at 255Nm of torque and comes with an overboost function that will help it kick up 20Nm more. Consequently, this top model will pelt from 0 to 52mph in 7.6 seconds. Looks chic, eh?

We normally have images that spray around the net from unofficial resources before a car goes public but Peugeot has wisely chosen to do the same thing all by themselves. Officially slated to go public at the Frankfurt Motor Show, this Audi TT two-door competitor is worth a watch. The French Moniker hasn’t gone overboard with the details and all that is here is a set of eye-catching flicks giving us a taste of what to expect when the car finally arrives. There isn’t much for the US buyers in this sneak peak though, for this moniker hasn’t crossed the American shores for 18 years.
