Portuguese Designer Wins Over French Automaker

Peugeot must be run by a bunch of mad geniuses. What other automaker would initiate a design competition involving entrants from all across the globe, display their designs for the whole world to see on one of the biggest stages within the automotive sector, and then as the prize, give the winning designer a trophy of "le Griffe" by building a full 1:1 scale example to be displayed at a show so big it can only be held every other year? Only an automaker run by mad geniuses... that's what kind. Oh, and as a bonus prize a limited run of 1:43 scale models will also be produced.
