Since 2018, Citroën has a new E-Mehari for sale. This is an update of the model launched in 2016 and of which Citroën has sold 35 units in Spain between 2016 and 2017, a very low figure.
Precisely, to try to increase this low demand, Citroën has given a return to the concept of the E-Mehari by introducing a new version with a rigid roof, which makes it a suitable model for any time of the year.
Together with the new rigid roof, this E-Mehari also incorporates slight aesthetic and equipment modifications. Starting with the design, we can point out that the variations are minimal. For example, now the E-Mehari incorporates new wheels of innovative design.
Where there are more changes is the interior. Are new, for example, the steering wheel, the design of the instrument panel, ventilation intakes and some controls of the center console. According to Citroën, the interior of this new E-Mehari has a more horizontal image to offer the feeling of a greater interior space.
However, the main change is the incorporation of a new version with the hard top. In this way, the E-Mehari will keep the convertible variant with a flexible roof and add a new one with the rigid roof.
This rigid roof allows the use of the car even in winter and, furthermore, provides a greater sense of robustness, according to Citroën. In addition, this roof is associated with windows for the doors of the front seats and other new windows for the rear seats. To this is added a glass rear window to offer greater and better sound insulation.
Within the equipment section, another of the improvements that the E-Mehari receives is the Easy Entry system, which facilitates access to the rear seats. With this system the two front seats widening the free space. In addition, these seats have position memory which allows then to return to the initial situation easily. Also, Citroën notes that now the E-Mehari is more functional as it incorporates new storage slots in the centre console and inside the doors.
In addition, the trunk has a safety behavior that has a capacity of 78 liters and has a lock. To this we add a trunk of 200 liters capacity, which can increase to 800 liters with the seats of the second row folded. In addition, the rear stool is sliding, which provides greater interior modularity.
Another aspect that has been modified in this new E-Mehari is the introduction of a structure with reinforced anti-corrosion treatment. This is because the E-Mehari is a car intended primarily for use in environments close to the beach and the sea and the wetness and saltpeter are usually very harmful to the bodies. Hence this reinforcement of Citroën.
As for the propulsion system, it is still a 100% electric generator. However, Citroën notes that it has improved 20% of the torque to achieve up to 166 Nm. (before it was 140 Nm) and achieve a maximum speed of 110 kilometers per hour. In addition, its official autonomy is 195 kilometres with a load. In the event that you have to connect the car to a conventional outlet of a house (10A) the load is made in 16 hours and 30 minutes. In 16A connections the charging time goes down to 10 hours and 30 minutes.
