Bosch is one of Peugeot Sport's essential partners on this project, making an active contribution to the specification of the fuel injection components and to the engine management system.


Peugeot Sport's engine department

With the arrival of this new challenge, Peugeot Sport was re-organised at the end of the 2005 World Rally Championship.

Claude Guillois, under the supervision of technical manager Bruno Famin, was named as manager of the engine department thanks to his experience of race engines, supercharged engines and knowledge of production engine design.

The department is based at Peugeot Sport's Velizy facility, which includes three engine test beds, including one for simulation.


The next important dates

- 28 September 2006: presentation of the scale model at the Paris Motor Show.
- 30 September 2006: Peugeot V12 HDi DPFS engine to be run on engine test bed.
- Beginning December 2006: first drive of the car by test driver Eric Helary.

In addition to Peugeot's three main technical partners, Total, Michelin and Bosch, Eurodatacar will be working with them on the Le Mans Series programme.
