With its silhouette pushed to the extreme, the Onyx Concept Car fascinates at first sight. Its intensely aerodynamic lines take enthusiasts beyond the limits of high performance. Its harmony of raw and state-of-the art materials along with its incredible design put it in a style league of its own. A showcase of technological excellence and craftsmanship, the Onyx Concept Car treasures a HYbrid4 engine under its copper sheet that recovers the kinetic energy from braking and restores it during acceleration. Its wings and doors, hand-carved by a master craftsman from a pure, mirror-polished copper sheet, make the Onyx dazzle and shimmer.

Its tail-lights are designed with Peugeot’s distinguishing luminous three-claw signature, a magnificently-exquisite finishing touch. The Onyx Concept Car also incorporates mini impellers which direct airflow and intensify aerodynamics.

Bathed in natural, dazzling roof-to-floor light, the Onyx’s cab includes a felt-designed console and a revolutionary, new wooden dashboard: made of newspaper-wood. The cab itself is a one-piece pod, without seams, without joins and becomes one with the driver and passenger, embracing them in absolute comfort.
