The Citroen E-Mehari. A modern, electric, interpretation of the original 2CV-based Mehari. I had no idea this was an actual production car. I want one. Top speed is a highway-capable 110 kilometres an hour (70 miles an hour for The Americans and The British) and production is limited to 1000 units.
It also comes in a very nineties teal colour.
The interior is very spartan. In my opinion though, that’s a good thing. The OG Mehari wasn’t exactly an S-Class either.

It’s a slightly changed Bollore Bluesummer so it’s not really a Citroen, more of an attempt of entering the electric car segment with something different.

They need to do a petrol version with the I3 from the C3!

That’s still very cool. The whole “beach car” segment needs to make a comeback, and using electric technology is quite a good idea. It’s not like you’re going to go on a road trip in a car like that.

No airbag? I didn’t know any countries would still let auto makers get away with that. Even on a low volume car like that.

Plus, if you do use them as a beach car, the lower amount of mechanical components and lack of gasoline means you can realistically leave them parked in the garage at your beach house over the winter without the storage hassles of an ICE car.

I believe France, or, more accurately, the EU, doesn’t actually require airbags as mandatory equipment. Cars without them just get dramatically lower safety ratings and are virtually radioactive on the showroom floor.

Amazing. I was wondering how they justified building such a bespoke model from scratch for so few sales. Answer is they didn’t ;)

Considering it won’t show up in dealerships, no problem. :/

It would take six full charges to go from London to Edinburgh. 200km range.
Some local car magazines tested it, but I’ve never seen a single one in a dealer or on the roads.
