The Countdown Is On: New LEGO® Technic™ Peugeot 9X8 Pays Homage to the Hybrid Hypercar Ahead of Le Mans Debut
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
After unveiling the game-changing 9X8 hypercar last year, Team #peugeot TotalEnergies has embraced a new engineering challenge – recreating the epic new hybrid hypercar in LEGO® Technic™ form. Car enthusiasts and #lego lovers - say hello to the LEGO® Technic™ #peugeot9x8 24H Le Mans Hybrid Hypercar.
In a feat of engineering #excellence, the #design teams from #lego Group and #peugeot Sport have created a precise 1:10 scale version of the pioneering 9X8 hypercar. From the sleek silhouette down to the lime flashes on the livery, this new #lego Technic model brings the Allure of the 9X8 to life. The 9X8 demonstrates PEUGEOT’s pursuit of electrification and embodies the brand’s zest for competition at the highest level.
The real-life 4-wheel drive hypercar’s electric powered 7 speed transmission has been replicated in precise scale in this new model, which also sports the hypercar’s unique doors, low-emission hybrid powertrain system, powerful suspension, and elegant profile. Fantastic details such as the V6 engine and glow-in-the-dark light elements truly capture the thrill of racing.
Speaking about the 1,775-piece marvel, Kasper René Hansen, Designer at the #lego Group said:
“Our two brands have come together to create a product that celebrates a new era of hybrid racing and engineering. Recreating the shapes and details of such an elegant car using #lego Technic elements wasn’t an easy feat, but it’s been an honor to work so creatively with the Team #peugeot TotalEnergies on this one and I’m proud that together we have been able to build the hypercar for real in #lego Technic form.”
Olivier Jansonnie, Technical Director #peugeot Sport:
“Our technical cooperation with the #lego Group started in January 2022, 5 months before the #peugeot9x8 reveal. It took one year to fully develop the project with the technical and #design teams, allowing us to directly transpose the technical details of the #peugeot9x8 to the #lego Technic model. It was very important for both brands to create a model that is as realistic as possible. #peugeot, #peugeot Sport and the #lego teams had numerous meetings about the development of the suspension and hybrid systems that cannot be replicated from photos. We thank the #lego Group for this project, we are very proud and impressed by the final result that is more than we could have imagined.”
This latest addition to the #lego Technic series measures over 5 in. (13 cm) high, 9 in. (22 cm) wide, and 19.5 in. (50 cm) long when fully built and is sure to provide a thrilling ride for racing and #lego fans alike.
The #lego version of the race car model was revealed at the first FIA World European Championship race in Portugal ahead of the real-life car taking to the tracks in preparation for its highly anticipated appearance at the Le Mans 24 Hour race on June 10th-11th.
The LEGO® Technic™ #peugeot9x8 24H Le Mans Hybrid Hypercar set will be available via #lego Stores and www.LEGO.com and through the #peugeot dealership network from 1st May.
