A hybrid version of the Peugeot RCZ will also be presented as a concept car at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2009. The hybrid is rumored to be able to do 100 km on 3.7 litres of fuel, which would make it the most fuel efficient sports car if it were available today. The Peugeot RCZ will go on sale to the public in 2010.
