Citroën Unveils ELO, a Compact Six-Seat EV Concept That Doubles as a Mobile Living Space

The study signals Citroën’s design direction by treating a city-size EV as a flexible living space.

The Elo concept's front features vertical lighting modules and an expanded polypropylene bumper.
The single-spoke steering wheel features joystick controls for digital functions.
It features a transparent cluster at the windscreen base, using reflective film technology.
The rear lighting signature includes floating light wings and a pair of vertical LED modules.

Overview

  • The concept will make its public debut at the Brussels Motor Show on January 9, 2026.
  • At about 4.1 meters long, it packages seating for six with a central driver’s seat and opposing sliding doors without a center pillar.
  • Camping and work features include two inflatable mattresses inflated by an onboard compressor, vehicle-to-load power, a pull-out projector and screen, awning hooks, and removable seats that double as outdoor chairs.
  • Citroën says ELO sits on a dedicated electric architecture, but it has not released motor or battery specifications.
  • Partnerships with Decathlon for storage and materials and Goodyear for tyre and pressure tech are highlighted, while reports of a 2028 subcompact inspired by ELO remain unconfirmed.
