In preparation of final version of the 206WRC, Peugeot Sport concentrated mostly on details. With such a success under it's belt there hardly were no big gains to be made, except in reliability department.
Rear wing of the car has vertical fins to keep it generating downforce even while car is sliding sideways. Cooling is improved and suspension strengthened.
