Citroën ELO: Small is the new Big

Citroën has chosen Brussels to unveil the world premiere of ELO, a concept car designed as a veritable laboratory of ideas. ELO is firmly rooted in society and evolving lifestyles: responsible, functional, clever, multi-purpose, accessible and resolutely friendly. Compact (4.10 m) but incredibly spacious, ELO is "the little car that thinks big". Its 100% electric architecture is optimally exploited to offer a modular space that can accommodate up to six people , transforming the interior into a real living space. ELO makes everything easier: travel, relaxation, leisure and teleworking. Designed for life on the move, ELO uses practical, durable and innovative materials, co-developed with Goodyear and Decathlon, two partners who are experts in their fields.

With ELO, it is not the customer who adapts to the car, but the car that adapts to the customer's needs. The standard model has four seats, with the driver's seat in a central position, offering a new feeling of visibility with a 180° windscreen and a modern, ingenious interface, while rear passengers enjoy immense space. The driver's seat can be turned around for conversation or work with a dedicated support. And if necessary, two additional seats can be deployed to carry six people. It can also be transformed into a sleeping space for two people, a home cinema, a power supply, and many other uses. ELO is revolutionising the world of mobility and becoming the catalyst for shared moments with your partner, family or friends.

With its refreshing design, infectious energy and ingenuity, ELO masterfully illustrates the Citroën spirit: original, creative, optimistic, clever, focused on well-being both inside and outside the vehicle. ELO is a breath of fresh air, offering a new way of looking at the automobile.

New C5 Aircross: the brand's flagship model changes stature

Citroën is presenting the New C5 Aircross in Brussels, a profound evolution that repositions this model at the heart of the C-segment SUV market. More charismatic, more technological and more efficient, it boasts a design that is both muscular and fluid, optimised for aerodynamics.

On board, Citroën offers a true first-class travel experience: generous roominess, exceptional space in the second row, and boot space preserved regardless of the engine type. The driver and passengers discover a high-tech cocoon, enhanced by progressive hydraulic cushion suspension, Advanced Comfort seats and a modernised dashboard with a large Cascade touchscreen for improved ergonomics and intuitiveness. Driving is more relaxed thanks to the latest generation of assistance technologies, including Citroën Matrix LED headlights and the Drive Assist 2.0 Pack. In terms of engines,

Citroën offers a particularly wide range of electrified options. The C5 Aircross is available as a hybrid with a range of up to 950 km, a plug-in hybrid with a range of over 100 km in urban conditions and nearly 1,100 km combined, and an affordable and versatile electric version with a range of up to 520 km.

Citroën Ami Dark Side: the enfant terrible embraces its dark side

A pioneer in electric micro-mobility for five years, Citroën Ami continues to redefine urban use. With its animation-inspired design, playful symmetry and cheerful character, Ami has attracted nearly 85,000 users since its launch. In 2025, it has adopted a more robust look, without sacrificing its characteristic candour. For Brussels, it shows its dark side with the new Ami Dark Side edition. Dressed in Black Night – a deep matte black – enhanced with white graphic elements, Ami Dark Side is both more rebellious and more elegant, without losing any of its fun and offbeat spirit.

Still compact, still 100% electric, still accessible from the age of 14 depending on the country, it remains faithful to Citroën's promise: easy, safe, affordable, customisable and resolutely human mobility. Ami Dark Side thus continues to explore a territory invented by Citroën: that of gentle, clever electric micro-mobility designed for everyday use.

Formula E: Citroën joins an inspiring championship

Citroën is celebrating its official entry into the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship at the Brussels Motor Show, marking a new milestone in its sporting history. Building on its heritage in Rally Raid, WRC and WTCC, the brand is approaching this discipline with the same determination: to learn quickly, progress constantly and perform sustainably. This motivation was crowned with success from the very first e-Prix of the season on 6 December in Sao Paulo, with driver Nick Cassidy finishing on the podium.

Formula E embodies the spirit of the times: a 100% electric, committed and responsible competition, held in city centres and tailored to a young, connected and international audience. It offers Citroën a remarkable technological and media platform, as well as a source of inspiration for the electric mobility of tomorrow.

The single-seater on display in Brussels sports a tricolour livery, reflecting the pride of representing French expertise on the racetrack and taking Citroën into a new sporting horizon.
