It looks like the second-gen Peugeot 308 won't be debuting in Frankfurt alone - the first images of a hot Peugeot 308 R concept have emerged, a mere couple of weeks away from one of the most significant motor shows on the calendar.
Resplendent in a head-turning two-tone red and black dress, the Peugeot 308 R concept sports a bodykit comprising side skirts and bigger bumpers that boast massive and densely-slatted air intakes. The front grille gets a unique treatment that sort of makes it look like a chequered flag, the bonnet gets twin louvres and the side mirrors are sharper-ended.
Huge five twin-spoke alloys are crammed into the wheel arches, and the window surrounds are now black. Look round the back and you'll find slim twin tailpipes that sit flush with the bumper. You'll also see a roof spoiler that's recessed in the middle. Blink and you'll miss a tiny 'R' badge just ahead of the front doors.
No details have been let loose so far, but if it's anything like the Peugeot RCZ R, it could have a 1.6 litre THP engine that develops 270 hp and 330 Nm of torque. A sign of things to come from the French carmaker's newest C-segmenter? Mais oui!
