PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT

PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT - The brand paves the way for a new vision of the
automobile
The name PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT (or "Inceptio" in Latin) means "the beginning". No
other name could better summarise the ambition of this PEUGEOT manifesto, which carries
the promise of a new era for the Brand. With its visionary design, the PEUGEOT INCEPTION
CONCEPT offers original technological perspectives and takes you on an exclusive automotive
experience.
The PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT propels you into a new dimension, between
dream and reality, promising intense emotions as soon as you approach it, touch it or
enter it. Its ambition is to bring most of its innovations to production from 2025.
The PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT is designed on one of the four future Stellantis Group
"BEV-by-design" platforms. The arrival of this new range of platforms from 2023 will
revolutionise the PEUGEOTs of tomorrow. Specifically created for electrification, they offer
major differences in terms of architecture which the designers leveraged to completely
reshape the PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT’s passenger compartment. They have
created a new driving posture and a new on-board experience for passengers.
• The STLA Large platform on which the PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT is based has
been given the silhouette of a low (1.34m) and efficient saloon, 5.00m in length. This size
was deliberately chosen to highlight the many innovations of this manifesto. The
platform is also part of PEUGEOT's new official messaging, which is still in keeping
with the Brand's DNA.
• The new "BEV-by-design" native electric platforms will also introduce technological
modules powered by artificial intelligence: STLA Brain, STLA SmartCockpit and STLA
Autodrive.
• The 100% electric PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT is equipped with 800V technology.
Its 100kWh battery enables it to travel 800 km on a single full charge, the distance
from Paris to Marseille or Brussels to Berlin. Its consumption is remarkable, at only
12.5kWh per 100 km. The battery charges the equivalent of 30km of range in one minute,
or 150km in five minutes. The PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT can be recharged by
induction, simplifying this step without the need for a cable.
• Two compact electric motors, one at the front, the other at the rear, make the
PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT a four-wheel drive vehicle for the excellence of fully
controlled dynamic driving. The combined power is close to 680hp (500kW).
Acceleration from 0 to 100km/h in less than 3 seconds.
• The excellence of the technology on board the platform family is reflected in the
PEUGEOT INCEPTION CONCEPT by the Steer-by-Wire. It does away with the steering
wheel as we have known it for decades, in favour of a Hypersquare control where digital
electric controls have replaced mechanical links.
