PEUGEOT. WINNER OF THE WORLD’S MOST
GRUELLING ENDURANCE RACE – 2009 LE MANS
24-HOUR RACE.
Le Mans is a unique contest which has carved out its own place in world class motor racing. The 24-hour endurance race is singularly demanding, not just in terms of the advanced technology it showcases, but also on the human side. It is an adventure which calls for 100 per cent commitment from the team.
Team Peugeot Total dominated the 2009 Le Mans 24 Hours race with the diesel-powered 908 HDi FAP which was the fastest, most reliable car at the endurance event. The team finished in first and second place and left its nearest competitor – the Audi R15 Tdi – 6 laps behind.
This victory proves the strength, power and reliability of Peugeot’s HDi FAP diesel technology that swept away even Peugeot’s strongest competitors. And the best part is that – this very same technology powers Peugeot’s award-winning vehicles.
