Strangely, the flagship Peugeot RCZ R model returns better economy figures than the THP 200. On the combined cycle it manages 44.1mpg and CO2 emissions of 149g/km, as opposed to the 1.6-litre THP 200's 42.1mpg and 155g/km of CO2.

If, however, you want to spend the least amount of money at the pumps, then the Peugeot RCZ with the 2.0-litre HDi engine is the one to go for with a combined economy of 54.3mpg and a CO2 level 135g/km.

Other good news about the Peugeot RCZ's running costs, comes in the form of firm residuals which come as a result of strong used demand.

However, while the RCZ isn't as costly as an Audi TT or Volkswagen Scirocco to run, don't except it to be as good as its German rivals in terms of overall quality.
