Autonomie des véhicules Citroën électriques et hybrides

The question of autonomy on a daily basis, whether on short or long journeys, arises in the choice of an electric vehicle.

The range of our vehicles is given according to the WLTP (Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures) cycle. This approved value can vary depending on a number of factors: discover the information that will allow you to better understand and benefit from the electrical driving experience.

SPEED

At 130km/h, the range of a 100% electric vehicle is halved compared to the WLTP-approved range.

Superchargers are available along the motorway network to allow you to quickly regain autonomy during a coffee break or lunch: up to 80% in 30 minutes (depending on vehicles, supercharger 100kW).

TEMPERATURE

The climatic conditions and their consequences: the need to warm the cabin, to cool it have an impact on the battery life.

Use thermal preconditioning when the vehicle is in charge to start at the right temperature and optimize range.

DRIVING STYLE

Your driving style has an impact on the range of your vehicle.

Choose a flexible ride to optimize it.

LOAD CARRIED

Driving with accessories on the roof or with a heavy load weight will affect your vehicle's consumption.

SIMULATE THE AUTONOMY OF YOUR VEHICLE

You can quantify the range of Citroën electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles depending on speed, driving style and temperature. For example, simulate the range of New Citroën ë-C4 Electric.

Fluidity

By driving smoothly, you avoid excessive energy consumption. Brake and decelerate slowly and in advance and limit jolts. On motorways, adjust your speed as much as possible, as high speeds rapidly reduce the range of your car.

Pre-set your vehicle's temperature

Take advantage of charging times to remotely pre-set the car's temperature without affecting its charge level. This way you limit the energy consumption of the air conditioning or heating systems when you are driving.

Use the Brake mode

Make use of engine braking instead of the brake pedal as soon as you can. This will allow your electric or hybrid vehicle to charge its battery during braking and deceleration.

Keep an eye on your tyres

In addition to ensuring your safety, it is essential to make sure that your vehicle's tyres are in good condition and properly inflated to optimise energy consumption.
