Nearly 80 years after the original 2CV initially appeared, Citroën is restoring one of the most iconic names in motoring with a new little electric car inspired by the legendary French original.
And yes, we've brought an egg.
The initial 2CV was designed to bring 4 individuals and 50kg of luggage throughout rural France, while being cheap, useful, simple to maintain and– most importantly– comfortable adequate to cross a freshly ploughed field without breaking a basket of eggs.
Citroën says the brand-new car isn't expected to be a retro copy of the old 2CV. Rather, it's trying to recreate the same philosophy: easy, economical, practical and comfortable electrical transport.
The concept is just 3.76 metres long and features some fantastic information motivated by the original, including its upright shape, round headlights, huge steel wheels, split-tailgate style and plenty of surprise 2CV Easter eggs.
Inside, things are intentionally simple, with a single-spoke steering wheel, an eight-inch touchscreen, a minimalist control panel, creative storage and even a detachable Radioën speaker. And yes, there are special pockets designed to bring eggs.
The production vehicle is expected in 2028, with Citroën targeting a rate of less than EUR15,000 before aids– possibly making this one of Europe's the majority of budget friendly electrical cars and trucks.
We do not yet know the last battery size, variety, efficiency or charging speed, however Citroën is clearly prioritising low weight, simpleness and affordability instead of turning the 2CV into another high-performance EV.
So, has Citroën recorded the spirit of the original 2CV?
And, most notably … will it pass the egg test?
