In Paris, Peugeot will introduce the concept of tricycle Onyx Supertrike
The appearance of Peugeot Onyx Supertrike partly resembles real tricycle Piaggio MP3, although still significant design differences. The Peugeot was confident that new tricycle will win future buyers of its versatility.Thanks to a special hump that is located in the Centre, Onyx can take many forms and depending on them to form a gate driver. In sport mode the driver leans over a hump and a foot on the rear footboards, quite like the sportbajke. Without a hump Onyx Supertrike turns into a regular scooter-Trike where the driver's foot is placed in front. On the idea of designers Onyx Supertrike must use hybrid drive: 400-M3 internal combustion engine and electric motor with power 45 kW. According to Peugeot, in this configuration, the concept will be able to issue 58 n m of torque and fuel consumption is around 2 liters per 100 km. Certainly, the tricycle is just a side dish to the main course, the supercar Onyx. The car, which served as the inspiration for designers Supertrike is equipped with 3.7-liter V8 engine. All 599 HP is transferred to the rear wheels of the car, while the front are 60-kilovattnym electric motor providing full Onyx drive.
