The Peugeot Onyx is a concept hypercar by Peugeot.
Description
The Onyx boasts a carbon fiber structure that consists of only 12 components as weighs only 220 pounds with the car weighing a total 2,400 pounds. The car also has built-in Lithium-ion batteries to power an 80 hp electric motor. Twin NACA ( National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics ) ducts provide airflow to the engine and the car uses a power train and suspension from Peugeot Sport, once responsible for the now defunct Le Mans racing program. An active rear spoiler similar to the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is used in assisting with deceleration.

Performance
The Peugeot Onyx is similar to Aston Martin Valhalla but with better handling, lower top speed, and worse nitro efficiency.
Availability
Blueprints for the Peugeot Onyx were initially available only through its Unleashed event, from limited-time packs featuring it, available at irregular intervals, and from time-limited events that feature its blueprints as a reward. From the Heatwave Season Update onwards, 1 blueprint can also be obtained from Heatwave Season in Career Mode.
The Peugeot Onyx's Starway event, which is exclusive to players who either do not have the car unlocked or have it starred up to or less, provides up to
188 Onyx blueprints—enough to unlock the car and star it up to
—with the caveat that players must have a variety of other cars unlocked and starred up in order to participate in the event.
Asphalt Nitro
The Peugeot Onyx behaves exactly the same as its Asphalt 8: Airborne rendition, with the only difference being the price.

The Peugeot Onyx was added in the San Diego Harbor Update as a Class S Premium Car with the following rank statistics:
- Starting rank: 1506
- MAX rank: 1656
- MAX+PRO rank: 1750
- Tuning Kit bonus: +33
The Onyx mainly rivals the Hennessey Venom GT, Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupe Touring Car 2014, and Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4.
The Onyx's acceleration is at best medium-high level. The car primarily excels in top speed and handling, especially due to its low, sub-2,500 lb weight. The one thing to be careful of is its unique nitro consumption combination of 7/14/17; at Level 2/Perfect Nitro, the car's nitro drains slightly more quickly than other cars with the same nitro stat, like the W Motors Fenyr Supersport and Ferrari FF, which are 7/13/17.
