After launching the new logo, Citroen immediately introduced a new concept car with the Citroen Oli (all-e).
The Citroen Oli concept car was developed as a ‘walking laboratory’ of an ideal future electric car from Citroen.
“We call this concept an Oli in honor of Ami as well as to conclude what this vehicle really is,” said Vincent Cobee, Chief Executive Officer of Citroen.
“This car is proof that Citroen can deliver All-Electric mobility to people of all ages in unexpected, responsible and useful ways,” added Cobee.
Starting from the appearance, Citroen oli departs from the typical rounded design of the previous Citroen with a body that tends to be boxy.
Citroen did not forget to add its new logo on the face of the Oli which no longer has any grille similar to the Citroen Ami.
Interestingly, Citroen oli is a pickup that has an integrated body with its body silhouette.
However, what is more interesting about Citroen oli is the targets that can make this concept car more environmentally friendly than the latest electric cars.
The first target is the product’s environmental impact cycle or the best Life-Cycle Assessment by using recycled materials and using sufficient materials.
One proof of this target is in the simple interior of Citroen oli which uses TPU plastic that can be recycled in collaboration with BASF.
In addition, the Citroen Oli seats also consist of only 8 components rather than an equivalent SUV which has 37 components for the seats.
Of course with the best Life-Cycle-Assessment, one of the immediate benefits of Citroen Oli is weight savings.
Citroen oli is targeted to weigh only 1,000 kg in order to achieve the target mileage of electricity consumption of 10 kWh/100 km and a mileage of 400 kilometers with a 40 kWh battery.
Unfortunately Citroen does not provide detailed specifications regarding power and torque or the number of electric motors owned by the Oli.
