Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?

TESLA MODEL Y PERFORMANCE AWD 2023

Not an interesting colour or a particularly unusual spot ( the model Y is the best selling car in the entire world in 2023)...it was a 73 though, and the flowers in the planter add a bit of horticultural interest, appropriate for its location at a garden centre car park. Just met the shutter click threshold.

Hyundai Two Suns collecting next door neighbour, and the ugly yeller Kia just dove past again.

Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?

Can't answer that yet, but Citroen have emailed me with a new vehicle due to be revealed in a few days with a live stream of the reveal.

Are you ready to say yes?
Electric shouldn't mean expensive. Let's say yes to electric mobility that's affordable for everyone.

Electric should make no compromise. Let’s say yes to state-of-the-art design, best-in-class comfort, and cutting-edge technology.

Let’s say yes to electric mobility for all.

100% Electric. Compact. Affordable.

Save the date: Grand reveal, October 17th at 12pm noon.

My guess is it's going to be an electric version of the C3 Aircross from the looks of the silhouette if that is representative! So my money's on something like the C3e Aircross at a guess.

Well after the links failed to work, I managed to get the video. Similar to the Indian version (same floor pan I believe), but a completely different vehicle otherwise.



So it's going in the right direction - certainly price-wise with the price at just over £20k in the UK, pre-orders now for Q2 delivery 2004. Loads of tech including advanced comfort suspension (yippee) so progressive hydraulic cushions, which are excellent, along with dash HUD and advanced comfort seats etc. It's the same footprint as the current standard C3, so smaller than the C3 Aircross I have.

2 models - one with less range that the other, the better one providing 199 mile range and 20-80% charge in 26 minutes.

Very interesting Marc

For comparison or confusion this is a video of the Indian version pulled out from a link now that Marc has revealed the reveal trailed. It is a different looking car and specs as pointed out likely to be very different too.
Obviously you will not be able either to get the Indian version, or enjoy the Indian ex showroom price ( unless you live in India and no reason why the FCF shouldn’t reach members from India too)

A first for me, I thought it was a Bentley at first glance but it's a Genesis GV60

[NewcastleFalcon]

Is it a VW id3 Pretty much. SEAT's Cupra Born is based on the same platform, and built in the same factory at Zwickau in Germany. About as Spanish as bratwurst.

parked outside the perfect shot

Dozens of them, many I didn't recognise, all flew past too quickly to see much more than the green flash.
Trip to see Merlin at the Bishop of Aukland's.

Spoiler: show

A Renault proper car-looking thing, bigger than a Zoe. Rear badge looked Nissan but the rhombus on the front, Uber collecting someone. Was rather hard to see, only the green flash gave it away.
First Uber I have seen too.

[NewcastleFalcon]

The only other Renault with a green flash that is becoming a more common spot, is the Renault Megane

Wasn't like that, more car-shaped than SUV-alike.
