The Citroën Revolte is a hybrid compact city concept car that was presented by Citroën at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show.[1]

Overview

The Revolte is based on the historical Citroën 2CV.[2] The concept car shows the changes that have been happening in terms of the role small cars and that style and elegance have become as important as economy and practicality.

The Revolte concept features Citroën’s bold design, which has become part of its history bringing a new contemporary approach to its compact city cars.

The Revolte is 3.68m long, 1.73m wide and 1.35m tall.[3] With well defined wheel arches, curving bonnet, forceful lines and sculpted sides, matching the roof line, the Revolte has a sleek and elegant profile.

Engine and drivetrain

The concept car is powered by both a rechargeable electric engine and a small-capacity conventional combustion engine. The Revolte is able to deliver zero-emission driving thanks to its all-electric ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) mode. The combined engines makes an astounding 123 horsepower, 142 foot pounds of torque, a top speed of 140mph and 0-60 in 5 seconds.[citation needed]
