A loyal participant in the Paris Motor Show, PEUGEOT will be at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles from 12th to 18th October for the 91st edition of this major celebration of automobiles. As one of the show’s headline brands, PEUGEOT is delighted to present the many visitors expected on its stand, with its vision of the present and future, taking driving pleasure and French charisma further than ever.



A NEW STAND CONCEPT

At the 2026 Paris Motor Show, PEUGEOT is unveiling a completely new stand concept designed to showcase driving pleasure, French charisma and PEUGEOT’s vision of the future.

Spectacular, instantly recognisable and resolutely immersive, this architectural concept is set to become PEUGEOT’s signature at its major automotive events. It reflects a strong ambition: to create a brand experience capable of generating emotion, sparking interest and bringing every visitor closer to PEUGEOT’s products, innovations and vision.

Located in Hall 4 and covering nearly 1,300 m², the new stand showcases three worlds in which to experience PEUGEOT, each topped by an overarching black structure that defines the space, giving it a strong visual identity which focuses attention on the vehicles on display. At the centre, the concept cars express PEUGEOT’s vision of the future. Nearby, sporting driving pleasure is celebrated with the new E-208 GTi, displayed alongside its iconic predecessor, the 205 GTI, which are accompanied by the PEUGEOT 9X8 which competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship. Finally, broad walkways punctuated by a trail of light guide visitors through the entire PEUGEOT range.

ACTIVITIES OPEN TO EVERYONE TO EXPERIENCE THE PASSIONS OF PEUGEOT

Every day, the PEUGEOT stand will offer the public a different programme centred on themes close to the Brand’s heart, with one guiding principle: discovering and sharing the passions of PEUGEOT.

THREE CONCEPT CARS STEERING THE FUTURE OF PEUGEOT

At the centre of the PEUGEOT stage at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, PEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT and PEUGEOT RCZ Vision, both make their world premieres, and embody two complementary expressions of the Brand’s future. This vision is also represented by the well-known PEUGEOT POLYGON Concept, which will be displayed nearby.

PEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT: the icon reinventedPEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT celebrates the 40th anniversary of the 205 T16's double victory in the 1985 and 1986 World Rally Championships, an icon of French automotive history.

PEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT reinvents the hatch for the electric era, transforming the legend into an unprecedented, futuristic experience offering exceptional driving pleasure. Highly technological and developed with PEUGEOT SPORT, PEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT combines a beast-like stance, radical and avant-garde elegance, extraordinary performance (816 hp, 0–300 km/h in 16 seconds) and mastery of cutting-edge technologies that heighten the instincts.

PEUGEOT E-T16 CONCEPT offers the ultimate vision of the next PEUGEOT E-208 through its light signature and the new generation of Digital i-Cockpit®, incorporating the revolutionary Hypersquare® steering control.

E-T16 CONCEPT creates its own “Hyperhatch” segment, unveiling the most powerful PEUGEOT in history, challenged only by the 208 T16 Pikes Peak prototype, which set the record for the famous American hill climb in 2013.

PEUGEOT RCZ Vision: a sensory vision of design and technology for the future of PEUGEOTPEUGEOT RCZ Vision is a brand manifesto placing pleasure, sensation and French charisma at the heart of its innovation strategy. It reflects bold, uncompromising creativity.

PEUGEOT envisages the future by drawing on its history and exceptional heritage. PEUGEOT RCZ Vision is the successor to the iconic RCZ coupé (2009–2015), a bold expression of PEUGEOT style and performance that has become a collector’s car.

PEUGEOT RCZ Vision carries PEUGEOT’s “Feline Future” design language and reinterprets the Brand’s DNA while expressing a futuristic vision with elegance, simplicity and emotion.

PEUGEOT RCZ Vision introduces technologies designed for the PEUGEOT models of tomorrow. Based on an architecture using the STLA One platform and combining a solid-state battery designed in collaboration with Factorial Energy with a 1,000 V electrical architecture, it embodies PEUGEOT’s vision of high-performance, efficient electric mobility, with 500 hp, a range of up to 600 km and consumption of just 11.5 kWh/100 km, without compromising driving pleasure.

PEUGEOT RCZ Vision reinvents the PEUGEOT onboard experience by making technology more intuitive, ergonomic and immersive, notably through Hypersquare® and an ingenious PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® featuring transparent MicroLED displays.

PEUGEOT POLYGON Concept: the near futurePEUGEOT POLYGON Concept is a genuine rolling laboratory that has enabled PEUGEOT to test numerous innovations over the past year, ahead of their introduction from 2027, particularly Hypersquare® and Steer-by-Wire technology.

Thanks to POLYGON Concept, PEUGEOT Hypersquare® has become a tangible reality, allowing visitors to discover the benefits and unique driving pleasure offered by this new technology.

Hypersquare® is more than a new shape: it introduces new PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® ergonomics and fully electronic vehicle control through steer-by-wire technology, which removes the mechanical link between the wheels and the steering control. Combining Hypersquare® with steer-by-wire delivers exceptional responsiveness and precision at high speed, unprecedented comfort during manoeuvres and a unique sensation of hyper-agility.

Visitors to the Paris Motor Show will be able to experience this new driving gesture and unprecedented pleasure through the two Hypersquare® simulators located near POLYGON Concept.

PEUGEOT POLYGON Concept also introduced a new interpretation of the Brand’s emblematic three-claw light signature, with a horizontal treatment that powerfully and modernly reaffirms PEUGEOT’s identity while emphasising the car’s solid stance on the road.

Beyond the new front end, POLYGON CONCEPT previews the overall design of tomorrow’s PEUGEOT models: pure, simple and geometric forms for a more feline stance than ever.

The new PEUGEOT E-208 GTi is the first-ever 100% electric GTi. It delivers exceptional driving sensations and the best performance in its segment, including an impressive 0 to 100 km/h time of just 5.5 seconds, thanks to a 281 hp electric motor.

Designed and developed in France by PEUGEOT Sport and PEUGEOT Design, the PEUGEOT E-208 GTi demonstrates that PEUGEOT places driving pleasure more than ever at the heart of its priorities, opening an entirely new era for GTi.

Near the PEUGEOT GTi models, an area highlights PEUGEOT’s involvement in the FIA World Endurance Championship with the PEUGEOT 9X8. This Hypercar embodies the exacting standards, innovation and expertise of PEUGEOT SPORT in one of the world’s most prestigious motorsport competitions. Visitors can admire its spectacular livery, created by PEUGEOT Design in collaboration with PEUGEOT Sport. It offers an original and dynamic interpretation of the “Hypergraphs” expressing PEUGEOT Sport’s performance language, while paying tribute to the Brand’s iconic claw motif.
