It is powered by two electric engines that boast a power of 300 horsepower from zero to 5000 rpm. The engine is fed by two lithium-ion batteries of 140 kg each that produces 31 kWh each, enough to cover 200 km.

Citroen engineers say that the batteries can be recharged in just two hours with a special equipment, and in 10 hours when connected to the standard 220V European power supply.
