The Peugeot X6H is a twin-turbocharged, four-stroke, 2.6-litre V6 racing engine built by Peugeot Sport for the Peugeot 9X8 Le Mans Hypercar, which has raced since 2022. The 500 kW internal combustion engine sits mid-mounted and longitudinally in the car, while a 200 kW motor-generator unit and battery drive the front axle. The battery was designed and developed jointly by Peugeot Sport and Saft, a subsidiary of TotalEnergies. Before the second race of the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship season a revised 9X8 was unveiled, and its Evo package gave the engine updates intended to improve reliability.
