Just a year after the Ferrari F40 made its debut, Peugeot had something up their sleeve too, and it was called the Oxia. This supercar concept from 1988 was powered by a 679-horsepower transversely-mounted, 2.8L twin-turbocharged V6 engine and had a top speed of over 200 miles per hour, making it a worthy competitor.
As you can see, this vehicle was far ahead of its time, starting from the exterior, which was handcrafted from a mixture of carbon fiber, Kevlar, and epoxy-resin composite bonded to aluminum honeycomb and sheet panels, making it extremely lightweight as well as agile. Step inside, and you’ll find a computer, display, CD player, and a radio / telephone that controlled the interior climate, while also providing travel data as well as navigational information. Peugeot invested roughly $2.7-million USD in the project, but unfortunately, the Oxia did not go into production.
