Citroën Is Bringing Back The 2CV Because EVs Got Too Expensive

  • Citroën is reviving the 2CV as a small, European-built EV priced below $17,500.
  • The new 2CV is aimed at making EVs affordable again, not chasing range or luxury.
  • It could undercut the Renault Twingo EV and Dacia’s upcoming budget electric car.

Citroën wants its upcoming cheap city EV to be a modern reinterpretation of the classic 2CV after previously denying it. In keeping with its predecessor, the cheap car that got France motoring after the Second World War, the new model promises to be very affordable, with a starting price under €15,000, or around $17,500.
