This looks a lot like the WRC-bound 208 of our dreams

Someone took the time to render the new Peugeot 208 wearing full-tilt rally gear and they did an awesome job.

That someone is Behance user Lukasz Myszynski, who put his pixel manipulation skills to good use. The result is a digital rendering of the new Peugeot 208 with a rally twist. A hefty rally twist.

By having a look at the attached images you’ll see that the said 208 was granted with all the stuff you’d expect to see on a rally car – hardcore bumpers as part of a wide body kit, extra air scoops and a rear wing attached to the roof. Heck, even the wheel design choice has rally written all over it.

Coming back to the real-life Peugeot 208, you should know it will feature an all-electric variant dubbed e-208. It will rely on a 100 kW electric motor that also makes 250 Nm of twist connected to a 50 kWh battery pack.
