In the mid-1990s, Venturi took the PRV back to the track: the 600 LM, a competition version of the Atlantique built for the BPR series and Le Mans, with an EIA-developed bi-turbo of around 600 bhp.
The 600 LM pushes the logic of the road cars one step further: the 3.0-litre 24-valve PRV bi-turbo, developed by the engine house EIA, delivers around 600 bhp — one of the most extreme road-derived applications of the Douvrin V6.
The same base powers the 408 bhp Venturi 400 GT on the road — and descends from the 200 bhp ZPJ4 of the Peugeot 605 SV24.
The 600 LM is the competition version of the Venturi Atlantique — built for the BPR GT series and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Venturi's PRV story on the road — 200, 260, 400 GT — is told in the 200 & 260 and 400 GT files.
At Le Mans, the PRV's benchmark remains the WM saga and the eternal 407 km/h record of the P88.
The 400 GT, “French F40”: 408 bhp of the same 24-valve bi-turbo PRV.
