Peugeot's gorgeous 20Cup concept was unveiled at the 2005
Frankfurt motorshow. The 3-wheel 20Cup was designed at
the Peugeot Style Centre.
The 20Cup was intended to provide a missing link between
cars and motorcycles.
The front end of the 20Cup is distinctly Peugeot, then
concept then tapers inward transforming into a enclosed
motorcycle with side-by-side seating and a single rear
wheel.
The single-arm rear axle, virtually load-free, is used
to steer the 20Cup, which weighs less than 1100 lb (500
kg).
Built with aerodynamics in mind, the 20Cup features a
generous front-mounted air intake, with air evacuated
laterally ahead of the front wheels.
Incidentally the 20cup bears more than a passing resemblance
to the 1996 Peugeot concept the Asphalte.
Like the 20Cup, the Volkswagen
GX3 was another 3-wheeled concept to preview during
the 2005 - 2006 motor show season.
