Peugeot will be showcasing the awaited Peugeot 207 GTi THP 175 at the 77th Geneva International Motor Show, along with it’s 207 SW Outdoor Concept, 207 CC and the 4007 Outlander-based SUV.
The Peugeot 207 GTi THP 175 is positioned above the previously released Peugeot 207 GT THP 150, and both runs a 1.6 litre THP (Turbo High Pressure) engine. Yes, you got it right, the same engine as the one in the new R56 MINI Cooper S. While the 207 GT THP 150 is tuned lower at 150 horses, the 207 GTi THP 175 has similiar performance stats to the Cooper S – 240Nm of torque from an amazingly low 1,600rpm and 175 horses.
More details when Geneva rolls around the corner.

I just noticed that the car looks deceptively small; with the guy in it as a reference, the car is actually quite big.
