The highlight of the new concept is its new carbon-fiber roof, which also integrates a sunroof and a proper headliner. The roof opens up to reveal a 2+2 seater cabin with dark-brown leather and chrome detailing and Citroen’s fixed-centered steering wheel.
Under the hood is a new ‘UrbanHybrid’ drive system that includes a reversible alternator-starter and super capacitors. This system allows onboard equipment, such as the air conditioning or audio system, to be powered by energy recovered during braking and deceleration, while engine torque can be temporarily boosted when required. The set-up helps reduce CO2 emissions by 24g/km on the combined cycle and also switches off the bio-diesel compliant 208bhp 2.7L diesel V6 when the vehicle is at standstill.
