ALL NEW ELECTRIC CONVERTED CITROEN 2CV

EV Channels Review

The Late Brake Show reviews the "2CEV," an electric conversion of the iconic Citroen 2CV. The reviewer highlights the charm and character of the original vehicle, noting that the EV conversion aims to preserve this soul rather than enhance performance. While acknowledging the conversion's "nippy" feel and the convenience of a modern electric powertrain (lower maintenance, instant torque), the reviewer points out significant limitations. The 55-60 mile range is deemed insufficient for many, and the £16,400 conversion cost (plus the car) is substantial, positioning it as a niche product for city dwellers or wealthy owners seeking an amusing "grocery getter." The conversion is praised for its integration and homologation, making it a "proper system" rather than a DIY job, effectively future-proofing a beloved classic for a new generation of enthusiasts or those restricted by urban emissions zones.
