標緻汽車長年來一直是積極參與賽車活動的廠商,自1999年回歸WRC(World Rally Championship,WRC)的活動不遺餘力。繼2001~2003年3連霸車隊冠軍,為了配合新車系的上市,307 CC硬頂敞篷車改成WRC賽車,從2004年開始取代非常成功的206 WRC。這款經常被暱稱為「飛蛙」(The flying frog)或「鯨魚」(Whale)的新版賽車。
在登場初登場的307 WRC 曾因為變速箱問題飽受困擾,直到標緻車隊都已經計畫要停止以原廠車隊的身份參賽、賽季即將結束時,才開始漸入佳境競爭力逐漸提升。307 WRC 在它不長的參賽生涯中總共獲得過三場分站冠軍。
Peugeot has been actively involved in motorsport for many years. After returning to the WRC (World Rally Championship) in 1999, Peugeot went on to win the Manufacturers’ Championship three years in a row from 2001 to 2003.
To coincide with the launch of its new model line, Peugeot transformed the 307 CC hardtop convertible into a WRC rally car. Starting in 2004, the 307 WRC replaced the highly successful 206 WRC. The new car was often nicknamed “The Flying Frog” or “The Whale” because of its distinctive shape.
When the 307 WRC first appeared, the team was plagued by transmission problems. It wasn’t until Peugeot had already decided to withdraw its factory team from the championship, with the season nearing its end, that the car finally began to show its potential and gradually became more competitive. During its relatively short competitive career, the 307 WRC scored three WRC event victories.
