Citroën is reportedly preparing the return of the 2CV in a modern, fully electric form. The goal is clear: to offer an affordable urban car that stays simple and targets buyers looking for a cheaper alternative to more advanced EVs.
The project draws on the spirit of the original small French icon, while adding current technology and zero local emissions. For the European market, including Italy, it could become an appealing option in an increasingly crowded and expensive segment.
