The Peugeot A20 Formula 1 engine is a new generation engine, totally new, lighter and more compact than the A18. Its reduced size and weight allow the AP03's centre of gravity to be lowered appreciably. Work has focused mainly on bringing improvements to the power, the control of power delivery and driveability.
