Peugeot will enter a pair of hybrid-powered 9X8 cars in the top Hypercar class of the WEC in the remaining three rounds of the 2022 WEC season, starting with the Six Hours of Monza on July 10, marking a return to the top echelon of sportscar racing for the time in over a decade.
The French manufacturer has spent a considerable amount of resources in building the successor to the Le Mans 24 Hours-winning 908 HDi FAP and recently reached its testing target of 15,000km after a mammoth 36-hour endurance run at Motorland Aragon in Spain.
