PEUGEOT 2008 HYBRID AIR INNOVATION ON DISPLAY AT GENEVA MOTOR SHOW

摘要

One of the most innovative automotive drivetrain concepts displayed at the Geneva International Motor Show in March was the 2008 HYbrid Air from Peugeot. This technology combines a gasoline engine with compressed air in a full hybrid configuration. The technology is a key step in achieving a fuel consumption goal of 2.0 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers (km) of driving. When installed in a typial passenger sedan, such as the Citroeen C3 or Peugeot 208, fuel consumption is just 2.9 liters per 100 km and carbon dioxide emissions are only 69 grams per km.
