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.
Asphalt 9: Legends[]

- rank: 3,026
- rank: 3,226 ( 23)

Performance[]
The Peugeot Onyx is a downgraded version of the Aston Martin Valhalla with less efficient nitro but with better handling. With enough star upgrades, the Onyx is a good option for events and multiplayer with its high top speed and well-rounded performance.
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.
With the introduction of Starway events, 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.
Asphalt 8: Airborne[]
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
- This was changed to 1589 in the ? update
- MAX rank: 1656
- This was changed to 1677 (+88) in the ? update
- This was removed in the Gangstar Season Update
- MAX+PRO rank: 1750
- This was changed to 1756 (+79) in the ? update
- This was changed to 1770 (+181) in the 2023 Summer Update
- Tuning Kit bonus: +33
- This was changed to +53 in the 2023 Summer Update
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.
