Peugeot 9X8 By Lego Technic Brings Le Mans Race Car To Your Table

Back in 2019, Peugeot announced its return to the World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the new Hypercar category. The French automaker unveiled the 9X8 as the successor to the 905 and 908 with a hybrid powertrain and a peak output of 939 horsepower. Naturally, a road-legal version isn’t even being considered but there’s now an affordable way to own the Le Mans race car.

Peugeot has teamed up with Lego to create the 9X8 24H Le Mans Hybrid Hypercar as part of the Lego Technic series. It is a detailed 1:10 copy of the original race car with a precise replica of the machine’s hybrid powertrain and seven-speed transmission. Other notable features include exterior components that glow in the dark, a fully working suspension, and a V6 engine.
