Citroën Revives 2CV as an All‑Electric, Low‑Cost Model

The relaunch signals Stellantis’s push to deliver affordable, EU-built electric cars that aim to widen access to personal mobility.

Overview

  • Citroën has confirmed the 2CV will return as a 100% electric model, shown in a teaser image and slated for fuller disclosure at the Paris Motor Show in October 2026.
  • The company is targeting a retail price below €15,000 to position the new 2CV among the most affordable EVs on the market.
  • Production will take place at Stellantis’s Pomigliano d’Arco plant in Italy as part of the group’s e-cars programme and Fastlane 2030 strategic plan.
  • CEO Xavier Chardon said the project is a major responsibility to reinvent the 2CV while preserving its original spirit of simple, practical and democratic mobility.
  • The move follows a wider European trend of electrified revivals from rivals such as Renault and could expand access to electric cars while increasing competition for low-cost urban EVs.
