Peugeot Urban Crossover Concept hints at the future

Peugeot Urban Crossover Concept hints at the future

Set aside sensibilities like practicality and emissions regulations for a moment and see what happens when you really bring together the purest forms of ‘Motion and Emotion’ in a car. Peugeot has done just that with its striking Urban Crossover Concept, displayed for the first time at Auto China 2012.

At 4.14 metres long and 1.74 metres wide, the Urban Crossover is a compact vehicle designed for city driving. It shares the same platform as Peugeot’s 208 supermini, and targets the competitive European B-segment.

Penned by Peugeot’s studios in Paris, Shanghai and Sao Paulo, it is mainly a styling exercise to showcase how future Peugeots might look like. If this looker is anything to go by, we say bring it on!

While most dream of the future, Jonathan Tan dreams of the past, although he's never been there. Fantasises much too often about cruising down Treacher Road (Jalan Sultan Ismail) in a Triumph Stag that actually works, and hopes this stint here will snap him back to present reality.

      I think it is more due to the size of the market available there (and their increasing purchasing power).

    Either the showgirl is really tall or the SUV is kind of low. Or it may be just the optical illusion. Anyway, there are some very nice design cues there. Hope it can make into production soon.

    • you’re right. that girl looks awfully tall to be standing next to an SUV. but i remember also during the last kl motor show where great wall brought in their girls from china to stand next to their cars, they were super tall too! made our local girls look a little vertically challenged.

      the pug model is not a real production car, so why bother? while the lady is real! but again, i might be wrong since i didn’t bother to read the story…hahaha (cant take my eyes off her)
