Link in the show notes if you want to support the show. Citroen is launching the extended range, EC3, Aircross, a bit like the Opel, Vauxhall Frontera extended range. So another 10 kilowatt hours of energy in the

battery. WLTPed up to 250 miles or 400 kilometers on this same power train otherwise. Single 83 kilowatt

0:30.6

motor, probably all you need for this vehicle. It's about 2,000 euros difference to go to the

0:37.1
