EXCLUSIVE: Citroën ELO - the new Citroën OLI is here and we love it!

Video Description

Full Story: https://www.electrifying.com/reviews/citroen-reviews/elo-concept/review Join Ginny in Paris for an exclusive first look at the Citroën ELO, the brand-new concept car signalling Citroën’s bold return to clever, compact MPVs. Bright, boxy and brilliantly practical, the ELO is an “ideas lab on wheels” — a glimpse into how Citroën wants us to rest, work and play in the next generation of electric family cars. We dive into the design story, from the one-box silhouette and huge wraparound glass to the vibrant colour-shifting exterior that channels peak Citroën quirkiness. Inside, things get even wilder: a central driving position, six-seat flexibility, removable chairs, rotating workstations and modular storage made from recycled materials. There’s even a collaboration with Decathlon, complete with inflatable air beds, built-in compressors, awnings and a full “mobile home cinema” setup. We also explore the sustainability innovations, smart Goodyear tyres and the clever packaging changes EVs finally allow designers to embrace. But the big question: how much of this will make it into a real Citroën MPV? And could this be the first hint at a reinvented Berlingo for the electric era? Join us as we find out — creatively, cleverly and very Citroën-ly. #CitroenELO #CitroenEV #MPV #FutureCars #ElectricMPV #CitroenConcept #CitroenOlli #ElectricFamilyCar 🎥 Subscribe to Electrifying YouTube: https://electrifyingcom.short.gy/KK1pbX 🎧 Electrifying Podcast: https://electrifyingcom.short.gy/Pogjfb ✉️ Electrifying.com Newsletter: https://www.electrifying.com/newsletter Follow Electrifying.com ⬇️ INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/electrifyingcom FACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/electrifyingcom/ X: https://twitter.com/ElectrifyingCom TIKTOK: https://tiktok.com/@electrifyingcom ——————————————————————————————— Check back for the latest new car reviews on everything electric ✅ the latest car reviews ✅ car advice and explainers ✅ used and new car guides ✅ head-to-heads WANT MORE ELECTRIFYING.COM?
