The Citroen Survolt specs also say its
lithium-ion batteries weigh 140kg each and that they can give the car a range of up to 200km (124 miles). The batteries of the Citroen Survolt can be re-charged in 2 hours with a special device or in 10 hours from a regular power outlet.

Citroen Press Release:
Citroen’s stunning all-electric racing car concept, Survolt, will come to life on 10th July when it
makes its first ever on-track appearance at the Le Mans Classic - piloted by experienced female racing driver Vanina Ickx.

Extremely rare in the world of racing, Survolt’s full electric drivetrain allows the model to combine dynamic, sporting performance with environmental consideration. Specially developed with compact dimensions (3.85m long, 1.87m wide, 1.2m high), Survolt features a tubular chassis, a flat underside with an extractor and full carbon bodywork, which all combines to make it a genuine electric racing car.

Propelled by two electric motors with a combined power of 300bhp from 0 to 5,000rpm, Survolt’s lightweight frame (1.15 tonnes) is capable of exceptional performance, with a top speed of 260kph (162mph) and a 0-100kph (0-62mph) time of under five seconds.

Survolt’s twin 140kg lithium-ion batteries each boast a 31kw capacity and can cover 200km (124 miles). Survolt can be re-charged in just two hours with a specific power supply, or in 10 hours on the standard 220 volt network.
