RCZ.
Ian ArthurHOST
The
Alan BradleyHOST
No. Renault, some other bits and pieces.
Alan BradleyHOST
Peugeot RCZ.
Alan BradleyHOST
Many of these aren't going to make it because unless somebody really high up in Stellantis really loves something and really pushes it through as a personal project, basically the outer reaches of Stellantis aren't going to happen unless it's Maserati patched.
Andrew ClewsHOST
Yeah.
Marc AmblardGUEST
So producing in Europe allows you to, with the proper local content, bypass that.
Marc AmblardGUEST
The partner that Schaupung has in Europe is Magne, as you mentioned, Magne Steierpuch in Austria, and they're already producing the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, they produced a bunch of vehicles in the past, Peugeot RCZ, for instance, in the past as well.
Marc AmblardGUEST
And that's a tier 1.5, that is the company that produces components, but also assembles vehicles, and they've been doing that for decades.
Marc AmblardGUEST
So that's no surprise.
RiriHOST
But yeah, that's one of the good reveals.
RiriHOST
The second reveal, which I don't know if we actually talked about this, the Peugeot RCZ Vision.
RiriHOST
What? Oh, we didn't talk about it.
RiriHOST
Apologies, sir.
RiriHOST
Peugeot released what they say a modern version of what the RCZ would look like.
RiriHOST
Okay.
RiriHOST
I'll be honest, I liked the original one, so I'm very easily pleased.
RiriHOST
Immediately, I look at that and
Zack KlapmanHOST
Yes, the new 2CV.
Matt FarahHOST
2CV, a new Alpine, uh, coupe that looks amazing, and a new, uh, Peugeot, uh, like RZ, RCZ, uh, coupe.
Matt FarahHOST
It's like three new awesome-looking French cars.
Matt FarahHOST
What is going on? The 2CV looks actually dope
Sam SheehanHOST
Maybe it's just really fun.
CamHOST
Anyway, I'm going to be a miserable sod because they've got this RCZ concept as well.
CamHOST
I thought the original RCZ was...
CamHOST
It just did absolutely nothing for me whatsoever.
CamHOST
Front-wheel drive, front-engined.
CamHOST
Yeah.
CamHOST
This thing...
CamHOST
I feel like, why are we reviving the RCZ? Do we need to? But, I mean, it looks great.
Andrew ClewsHOST
This obviously is the partner and the Berlingo Van platform, and then it also shared the platform with the Peugeot 308, the 3008, the DS 5 amongst, according to this Autocar, many other models.
Andrew ClewsHOST
But the bit that really got me is it actually [laughs] is the same platform that's under the Peugeot RCZ, which is their rather attractive two-door coupe.
Alan BradleyHOST
There you go.
Andrew ClewsHOST
And, yeah, that's-
Andrew ClewsHOST
... that's-
Alan BradleyHOST
Yes
Andrew ClewsHOST
... who knew the underneath of my Berlingo [laughs] is propping up a Peugeot RCZ.
Andrew ClewsHOST
[laughs] Yeah.

[clock ticks] Lorraine's Lane.
LorraineGUEST
Yes, I was also at Loch Lomond with Ali and Alan, and I have been a Peugeot fan for many years, especially the sporty RCZ, but I've not driven one for some time.
LorraineGUEST
So I was delighted to receive an invitation to test the latest addition to their sporty lineup, the electric 208 GTI.
LorraineGUEST
Now, I'm old enough to remember and appreciate the 205 GTI, and indeed, the 308 GTI, but I just wasn't sure that an electric version could possibly replicate the sheer enjoyment and performance of these two.
