Citroën has revealed the ELO, a bold new all-electric concept car that blends the practicality of an MPV with the playfulness of a camper van – and a hefty dose of French flair. It’s compact on the outside yet versatile inside and will be making its debut at the Brussels Motor Show on 9 January next year.
Sadly, the name ELO wasn’t inspired by the 70s rock band from Birmingham – it’s rather more tenuous than that. Citroen says it’s a car that invites you to ‘Rest, Play and Work’ and took the second letter from each word for the name of the car. If they’d gone for Work, Rest and Play, they could’ve named it after the world’s second favourite chocolate bar and called it the Mars concept – although NASA might have got there first with that one.
