Citroën oli [all-ë] is enough

For Citroën, predicting the future of affordable personal mobility is an obsession, and the success
of Ami has provided the impetus to take ‘unconventional’ to a new level in the conceptual oli.

The innovative Ami demonstrated how Citroën dares to do things differently to meet its commitment of making straightforward all-electric transportation available to all. It also provided the stimulus for oli, a striking and innovative ‘laboratory on wheels’ designed to move the needle for family mobility by bucking industry trends for heavier, more complex and expensive electric cars.

“We called this project ‘oli’ as a nod to Ami, and because it sums up what the vehicle is all about – further proof that only Citroën can deliver no-nonsense, ALL-Electric mobility to ALL kinds of people in unexpected, responsible and rewarding ways,” says Citroën CEO, Vincent Cobée.

It is Citroën’s guiding light: an adventurous, multi-faceted manifesto of clever and achievable ideas focused on reducing weight and complexity to maximise efficiency, versatility and accessibility. oli is a destination, in which the trend for ‘more’ is exchanged for the constructive ‘enough’: “as much as you need or is necessary”.

Significantly, customers can expect to see many of the concepts and innovations showased in oli flowing through to Citroën’s future electric family vehicles.

I love that Citroën is being Citroën again ❤

Oh, this needs a serial release like yesterday. Engineers, designers, CEOs of Citroën - please, please don't let this concept die! Affordable, no-nonsense electric cars are the way forward!

[etbadaboum]

Total win with this video and concept!

This looks incredible. I hope it becomes an actual car. I’m 30 and have always been car-less by choice, but I’d purchase this in an instant!

Has a potential of being a breakthrough automotive moment.

Props for Citroen being again radical, lateral-thinking and minimalistic, which is what the Double Chevron was always all about.

If you manage to make the production model sub-1000kg dry weight, it is going to be truly revolutionary
and significant (even if the range is not stellar in today's standards - most people need 150-180 kms
of real range for their urban/sub-urban usage - what really counts with BEVs is the convenience
& speed of recharging.

I find this concept wonderfully refreshing and opposed to the current non-sensical & lethal "race to the bottom" with the current vulgar BEVs (in terms of kgs, hp, range etc.) - which obviously serve
a narrow & short-minded sphere of interest.

For the love of everything, PLEASE make this real and bring Citroën back to the American markets! We need this.

[dochudson]

Finally a new idea in the automotive industry that makes so much sense. Really hope this becomes a thing in the near future

[Muskatnussification]

Please build this awesome thing! Such a beauty 🥰 fell instant in love 🥰

[ingenioust]

The best concept car I’ve ever seen… I really hope it makes it to production.

[nikostzinopoulos]

This is really Avant Garde!!! We love you Citroen!!!🥰

[andre_tasubsurface]

This is amazing. Please Citröen, make it - but make it as this one, not as another prototype-turned-boring production car. Everything here is so good, you could sell it anywhere in the world, the same car.

I absolutely love this car!! I drive a full-size pickup truck here in the US and I would sell it RIGHT NOW if it meant I could have an OLI. I think the speed limiter at 68 would need to be increased slightly to, say, 80 to cope with US highway speeds safely, and I'd like that glass at the back to come all the way to the tailgate, making it a weatherproof hatch. But other than that, I don't think I'd change a thing. This is exactly what I always wanted to see in an EV. The design, the practicality, and the FUN are all there. Canoo comes close, but OLI really hit the bullseye. Unfortunately, I'll never be able to get one because Citroen don't sell cars in the U.S. 😭

I can wait for my first electric car to be the production version of Oli, at which point, I will trade in my C4 Cactus. Don’t make me wait too long.

[plushlion]

Amazing. This needs to have an offroad trim. With slightly slimmer wheel arches as an option (the black ones) and some bigger tires on those same wheels it might be able to go anywhere, so long as battery and engine are protected. And it seems like one can mount all types of gadgets, navs and tablets on the rail that holds the phone and speakers. Will be waiting for this neat buggy.

[richardphelps]

I love it, and I want to buy one…… please make it. I’ve never wanted a car so bad. Fits all my needs…..

I will place an order as soon as released.

[ashrafhassan]

Like your last badge the most, the one used with the aircross.

I think this new one you use here, was once used before!

[XtianJade]

i hope they build this that's very similar to the concept, aesthetic wise.it's out of this world.

[KUKALACI]

oh god..please Citroën make it! I'll be the first person who buy it! Absolutely amazing!

[walterkaiyuenpang]

Yep, SIGN ME UP !!!

This IS The FUTURE !!!

💥💥💥👍✊

[paulokubes]

This is the car I need. Well done Citroen. Will you make it happen?
