Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in Europe and it looks like Citroen is almost ready to introduce a new one.
In two teaser videos, Citroen notes electrical outlets have helped to wake you up in the morning and make the best or worst coffee in the world. They go on to say, outlets have “served you well and that’s not stopping anytime soon.”
The videos then cut to a mysterious vehicle as the ad says “For 100 years, Citroen has made automobiles accessible to all. In 2020, Citroen will make electric available to all.”

While the two clips vary slightly, the latest teaser video says there will be more to come on February 27th. Given that Citroen is apparently skip the Geneva Motor Show, it’s possible the vehicle will be unveiled at a special event later this month.
Little is known about the vehicle at this point, but the teaser image suggests it will have a fully enclosed grille with an illuminated Citroen logo. We can also see circular headlights and pronounced front fenders.
The vehicle looks unlike anything else in Citroen’s lineup, but it does share some similarities with last year’s Ami One concept. That particular model was an ultra-compact two-seater which was billed as an electric urban mobility solution.
It’s performance specifications weren’t very impressive, but the concept had a range of 62 miles (100 km) and a top speed of 28 mph (45 km/h). The concept could be charged in approximately two hours and driven by people without a driver’s license (depending on local regulations).
It remains unclear is Citroen is planning to build the Smart ForTwo competitor, but we’ll find out in approximately three weeks.
