The original 3D design for the Flux

The Peugeot Flux was a concept car from Peugeot that won the 2007 Peugeot International Design Competition after being unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show that year.[2][3]

The car was designed by a 20-year-old Romanian, Mihai Panaitescu.[1] It was intended to be a sports car, but was flexible enough to be used for light off-roading.[4]

Interior of the Flux

The vehicle was powered by hydrogen and constructed of plastic body panels, polyurethane seats and an aluminium chassis. The Flux also featured as downloadable content for Project Gotham Racing 4 (2007), in which an Xbox 360 console can be seen on the right-hand side of the dashboard.[5][6]

Peugeot auctioned the car in September 2020.[7]
