The next Citroen C1
might take a revolutionary step forward and arrive with a full-electric
powertrain. Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the 2018 Paris Auto
Show, Citroen CEO, Linda Jackson, was the one to indicate the possible direction
of their upcoming city car.
While PSA is
investigating an electric approach for the next Citroen C1 and its Peugeot
sibling, the 108, Toyota is still undecided about a zero-emission Aygo.
Nonetheless, PSA and Toyota have about 1 year to decide whether it’s best to
keep collaborating on the three models for the third generation, too.
Toyota is not ready
to give up on the Aygo just yet, as it’s considered an important model for the
company in Europe, serving its purpose of bringing new customers into the
brand. Toyota appears to have an ace up its sleeve: a possible crossover
minicar.
