    Could that be to do with the dimensions of the rims on S2000 cars for gravel events? I see that along with the Group N cars (Evo, Impreza, Ignis, Swift, Clio and Fiesta) it seems it could have the widest rims at 7" x 15". Though the rims can also be 6.5" x 15".

    The article says Peugeot will homologate 1.6 turbo engine during this year!

    No, both S2000 and N4 use gravel tyres of same dimension. That doesn't apply on all smaller cars.
