Designed by Francoise Nielly, the Survolt is a riot of colours, with pink, yellow and green spolodges dominating its nose.Citroën has unveiled a new ‘Art Car’ version of its Survolt electric sports car concept.
Unlike Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst, who are tremendous artists in their ow regard, Nielly’s work encompasses the creativity and incandescent colors found in the style of art cars, leaving the task of turning the Survolt into a Nielly masterpiece as a beautifully simple one.
It comes with a tubular chassis, a flat underside with an extractor, and full carbon bodywork.3.85m long, 1.87.m wide, and 1.2m high and weighs in at just 1,150 kg.
The Survolt is powered solely by electricity and can produce a 0-60 mph time of just a shade under five seconds with a top speed of 162 mph.
The Citroen Survolt Art Car is on display at the showcase C_42 showroom on Paris’s Champs-Elysees, alongside the new C4, DS3 Racing and DS4.
