PSA Group’s Citroen CXPerience concept car combines the carmaker’s latest exterior design language and “advanced comfort” technologies with a hybrid-electric drivetrain.
The concept, which is named after the former CX large car that Citroen discontinued in 1991, is expected to preview the all-new C5 sedan due next year. Styling cues include a muscular front end with adjustable air intakes and staggered LED lights, pronounced wheel arches, rear-hinged doors and a long rear-sloping roof line with a small concave rear window. Rear-facing cameras are used in place of traditional door-mounted mirrors.
The interior features a single-spoke steering wheel and a 19-inch touchscreen that replaces traditional control buttons and switches. The split-screen design allows the driver and front-seat passenger to view separate content.
The comfort package includes a special seating system and Citroen’s next-generation suspension technology. The plug-in hybrid powertrain, which is teamed with an 8-speed automatic transmission, generates a combined 300 hp and provides a 40-mile electric driving range.
The company released photos of the vehicle on Monday. The car will be publicly unveiled late next month at the Paris auto show.
