At the Paris Motor Show, the Citroën company presented a city electric car concept created in the spirit of the legendary 2CV. The new model turned out to be even more compact than the original. The length of the electric car is 3.7 meters, while its historical predecessor was 3.8 meters. The weight of the car is approximately 1 thousand kg.
The exterior design of the concept retains features characteristic of the classic 2CV model: separately mounted round headlights, protruding windshield wipers, and a folding canvas roof. At the same time, the car is equipped with LED optics, 19-inch steel wheels, and a black rear door. The body panels are made as simple as possible, and the bumpers are designed in sections to reduce repair costs.
An 8-inch touchscreen with comic book-style graphics is installed in the cabin. At the same time, some of the functions are controlled via physical buttons. Another unique feature is the removable Radioën radio, which can also be used as a portable speaker.
The technical specifications of the engine and the power reserve have not yet been disclosed. Citroën plans to launch the production of the electric car in Europe. The presentation of the serial version is scheduled for 2028 — the 80th anniversary of the original Citroën 2CV model. The estimated price of the new model will be 15 thousand euros (approximately 200 million soums as of October 2026).
