Last week we told you about the new Citroën C4 and ë-C4, the zero emissions variant that was officially presented on June 30. The chevron signature has taken to the pool, showcasing a completely revamped concept of coupe silhouette and bold lines. In addition, the launch model will be the electric one and we will have to wait to see the combustion versions. The firm’s commitment to sustainable mobility has reached a higher level in 2020, a year that will mark a before and after among all manufacturers. Citroën has brought out the heavy artillery with the launch of electrified models identified under the ë family : Ami, C5 Aircross Hybrid, ë-Jumpy and C4-ë . Now it is the turn of the Ë-Spacetourer passenger van, a multi-purpose and versatile minivan that will now circulate without emitting a gram of CO2.
The Spacetourer is the ace up its sleeve for Citroën, a vehicle capable of transporting a large family or becoming the ideal camper for a couple of adventurers. The electric variant, built from the PSA group’s EMP2 modular platform, does not show significant changes in the aesthetic or habitability section. It will continue to be available in 3 sizes: XS (4.60 meters long), M (4.95 m) and XL (5.30 m) with space for 6 and 9 passengers . An offer that can fit the needs of the private client or the carrier that requires an adaptable and modular vehicle.
Electric mobility involves certain changes in routines, a challenge that many prefer to avoid. Evolution usually generates fears and doubts, an uncertainty that the PSA group wants to combat by creating friendly and recognizable electric vehicles. The Ë-Spacetourer maintains the design of the combustion model with just three imperceptible changes, the important thing is below the surface. Specifically under the floor, where we find the 50 kWh batteries in the reduced autonomy version and 75 kWh for the extended autonomy variant . Modules that will conserve electricity for the 100 kW (136 hp) and 260 Nm block, which will travel the cities without problems in the face of anti-pollution protocols. The model will arrive in late 2020.
