Groupe PSA and Chinese partner Dongfeng Motor Group will unveil an all-electric version of the Citroen C-Elysee sedan next week at the Beijing auto show.
The companies plan to launch the new E-Elysee model next year in China. The conventional C-Elysee was Citroen’s best-selling vehicle there last year, with sales of 90,000 units. There are no immediate plans to sell the EV anywhere else.
The new EV’s lithium-ion battery will provide a 155-mile driving range, according to the partners. A fast-charging system can replenish the battery in 30 minutes, while normal charging adds another six hours to the process.
