But it’s under the bonnet that the mystery starts. These photos show lots of carbon fiber, which means this is either a concept of an expensive limited production car. If so, there really is no need for them to develop a powerful turbo 2.0-liter for this car specifically. But the 1.6-liter 200 hp engine usually used for these sorts of jobs by PSA isn’t powerful enough.

So, we have to say that rumors of the DS4 Racing being a hybrid have some credibility. Supposedly, the 1.6-liter turbo in the DS3 Racing will motivate the front axle, while the back will be electric. The setup should be about the same PSA group’s diesel Hybrid4 set up, in that the 70 kw (95 PS) electric motor at the back ill make this an all-wheel drive car.
