The Cactus could come in both hybrid and electric options

There is something special about the Citroen Cactus concept.

No, it’s not its EV status. With a top speed of 70 mph and a range of 100 miles, there is nothing special about the Cactus’s EV qualifications. It’s not the fact that the Cactus could also come as a hybrid model either.

It’s the lack of a dashboard. The dashboard controls are instead mounted onto the center console or steering wheel hub, which results in a significant reduction in weight and costs.

More interesting, AutoWeek is reporting that Citroen is seriously considering putting the Cactus into production. Hopefully, such a move can inspire a wave of automakers to think outside of the box to make lighter, cheaper and more fuel efficient vehicles.
