    Measuring just 2.41 metres long, it is classed as a “light quadricycle” much like the Renault Twizy. And this means that it can be legally driven in France by teenagers as young as 14-years old while in the rest of Europe, it can be driven by 16-years olds. Image Credit: Citroen

    It also has an incredibly stripped down interior – you need to use your own phone and a Bluetooth speaker if you want a basic bit of functionality like listening to music. Image Credit: Citroen

    A companion app can provide you details such as the car’s current charge status, mileage, maintenance alerts and it can locate nearby charging points. Image Credit: Citroen

    It has a top speed of just 45kph which is also the same limit as the fastest e-bikes in Europe. Image Credit: Citroen

    The small battery means it can be fully charged from a standard 220v European wall outlet in just three hours. Image Credit: Citroen
