New Mehari
Autocar reports that "Citroen is bringing back the iconic Mehari name for a new all-electric four-seat convertible, which will go on sale in France next Spring. "Described as being an "it car", Citroën says the e-Mehari is "stylish, confident, offbeat and even sassy," and is "designed to appeal to customer looking for an alternative vehicle with a positive outlook on life, attentive to trends and to the environment. "The body of the e-Mehari is made from thermoformed plastic and will be available in a range of radical colours - including different paint schemes for the roof. The car can be hosed down inside and out. "Power for the e-Mehari is drawn from Lithium Metal Polymer batteries, giving the e-Mehari a range of 124 miles in the city, with a top speed of 68mph. Recharging takes eight hours through a charging station, or 13 hours by a domestic supply. "The e-Mehari will be built at PSA Peugeot Citroën's plant in Rennes, and will receive its world premiere in Paris later this month." No mention of price, though! The French government is currently promoting a project to develop a €7k electric car, under the project title of "Deux-Chevaux Cop 21", but I doubt this will be it!

Re: New Mehari
I really like it. It's different. Look at all the other modern chod that's basically the same. VAG with the A3/Golf/Leon/Octavia and then other similar stuff like Kias, Hyundais, BMWs, Mercs.... they're all basically the same; 4 wheels/roof/aircon/satnav/4 seats.
Citroen have made something different and interesting. I like it.

Keep driving it on the beach on soft sand, park it up and go for a picnic.
