Citroën 2CV Concept: A Timeless Icon Reimagined for the Electric Age

Citroën has revived one of its most beloved models with the unveiling of the 2CV Concept at the 2026 Paris Motor Show. Reimagining the spirit of the legendary 2CV for a new generation, the concept blends retro-inspired design with affordable electric mobility, previewing a production model expected to arrive before the end of the decade.

The original 2CV became a symbol of freedom, practicality and accessible motoring.
