Peugeot has revealed it is to showcase its diesel hybrid at the British Motor Show in London's Docklands this July.

Featuring a 110bhp 1.6-litre HDI diesel engine, the concept behind the new 307 CC Hybride HDI diesel prototype was first unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year.

An electric motor and a start-stop system automatically switches the engine off while idling, then restarts it, producing fuel consumption of as little as 70mpg. This represents an improvement of 30 per cent on the conventional 307 CC HDI.

Supported by the battery pack which is recharged by regenerative braking, the electrical motor produces a continuous power boost of 31bhp and as much as 43bhp and 133lb feet of torque.

The electric motor is also capable of running in full-electric mode at low speeds. Meanwhile, fitted with a clutchless automated manual gearbox the performance of the Hybride is claimed to be broadly similar to the conventional 307 CC.

Peugeot said that 307 hatchback with the hybrid powertrain has been penciled in to go into production in 2010.

The French manufacturer is to host several other exhibits at the motor show, including the 907 V12 supercar concept and its 280bhp 207 RCup hot hatch prototype.
