Review

At the 2010 Nürburgring 24 Hours race Peugeot was racing with two Peugeot RCZs. The endurance race marked the launch of this limited edition coupé, the Peugeot RCZ, as well as  the make's 200th anniversary.

It was the first time that Peugeot competed in the popular German 24 hour race that draws the attention of 220,000 spectators every year. Racing in Germany gave Peugeot the chance to promote the new coupe on a market that is very fond of sporty cars.

In the Nordschleife circuit Peugeot raced two 2.0 l HDi FAP RCZ cars, each developing 147 Kw (≈ 200 h.p. DIN), in the D1T category, Diesel between 1700 and 2000 cc. Some specific parts of the standard RCZ have been modified with the help of the Peugeot Sport "client motor racing" range.

To symbolize the 200 years of the brand the two RCZs display the numbers 200 and 201. A French team and a German team were behind the wheel the two RCZs in the endurance race.

Each team was composed of four "gentleman drivers", enlightened motor racing enthusiasts, experienced drivers and fans of the make, including Jean-Philippe Peugeot, Vice-president of the PSA Group's Supervisory Board, Stéphane Caillet, ground link technician, Cyrus Ayari, sales executive, and Olivier Perez, Peugeot marketing executive.
