Less than a year after its concept was revealed and only five months after the start of its on-track testing programme, the PEUGEOT TotalEnergies team unveiled its race car: the PEUGEOT 9X8, a 4-wheel drive Hybrid hypercar. The car made its competitive début at Monza, in the fourth round of the 2022 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).

PERFORMANCE REINVENTED
Less than a year after its concept was revealed and only five months after the start of its on-track testing programme, the PEUGEOT TotalEnergies team unveiled its race car: the PEUGEOT 9X8, a 4-wheel drive Hybrid hypercar. The car made its competitive début at Monza, in the fourth round of the 2022 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).
DESIGNED WITH ALLURE
A NEW LIVERY DESIGN INSPIRED BY THE PEUGEOT IDENTIY
The collaboration initiated in 2020 on the PEUGEOT 9X8 Hypercar between the PEUGEOT Design team and Peugeot Sport continues to thrive this year through the 2024 livery. The designers made use of all aspect of the PEUGEOT identity: the Lions pride that represents teamwork and our commitment, the PSE label color identity that recalls the very origin of the project and contrast, creating a very graphic and unique line.
THE NEW PEUGEOT 9X8 GRAPHIC DESIGN AT THE 24H DU MANS 2023
The result of an artistic collaboration with J.Demsky!
PEUGEOT and artist J. Demsky have teamed up to create a highly original graphic design for the PEUGEOT 9X8, a sports car that expresses the very best of PEUGEOT in terms of style, efficiency, and technology. Racing in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) since 2022, the exclusive unveiling of this PEUGEOT 9X8 will race for the next 24 hours of Le Mans in June 2023.
VICTORY IN THE GENES
After the victorious 905 and 908, the PEUGEOT 9X8 Hypercar, the latest original creation from the French brand, will make its début on the circuits of the WEC, bringing a new look to the discipline.

FROM A SKETCH TO THE TRACK
The track tests carried out over the last few months on five different circuits have confirmed this inventive concept.
Capgemini (Artificial Intelligence) and PEUGEOT Sport are working together to optimise the efficiency of the 9X8 - in particular energy management, during both acceleration and regeneration.
