The Citroën E-Méhari is a limited-production electric off-road subcompact SUV produced by the French car maker Citroën from 2016. Approximately 1,000 cars were planned to be produced in collaboration with the French electric car producer Bolloré.[2] Sales began in France in spring 2016 with pricing starting at €25,000 excluding the battery leasing.[3] It reaches a top speed of 110 km/h (68 mph) and accelerates 0–50 km/h (0–31 mph) in 6.4 seconds.[1]

The E-Mehari is based on the Bolloré Bluesummer, and references the original Citroën Méhari from 1968 in both name an design, featuring a fabric roof and hose down interior. Citroën were reported to be concentrating sales on the rental car market in Southern Europe, particularly around coastal areas. [4]
