Peugeot 4002 concept car

The Peugeot 4002 supercoupe concept car is without question the most fabulous concept ever rolled out in decades. The winner of Peugeot’s second design competition, the organically-shaped 4002 is both futuristic as well as replete with retro styling cues from past Peugot designs, such as the headlights behind the radiator grille that was seen in the Peugeot 402 of the 1930s. It was drawn within three deceptively simple guidelines: It had to have a clear association with the French marque, it had to recall one of Peugeot’s historic models, and it had to be innovative, creative, and original.

Though the 4002 is too extreme a design to be placed into production anytime soon, it may well serve as an inspiration for Peugot’s future cars and bring excitement into one of Europe’s oldest and most successful car manufacturers.
