Peugeot unveiled a radical new micro-mini electric car prototype at the Frankfurt auto show on Wednesday, inspired by motorcycle technology.  Unlike their iOn sedan, which is based on the Mitsubishi  i-MiEV and is definitely slated to go into production, the new, smaller concept car, known as the bb1, is more of a trial-balloon to gauge public response.  Jean-Marc-Gales, vice president of PSA Peugeot-Citroen,  announced that within six months Peugeot will make a decision on whether to actually put the bb1 into production. “I want to build it,” Gales said.
The bb1 is based on a tubular chassis designed by PSA/Peugeot-Citroen subsidiary Peugeot Motorcycles, and if production is approved it will also be built by Peugeot motorcycles.
Amazingly, at just 8′-2″ inches long only 1,323 pounds the bb1 can  carry four passengers.  Two Michelin electric motors located in the rear wheels are powered by dual lithium-ion battery packs located under the rear seats.   Peugeot expects a range of 75 miles with a top speed of 56 mph.
 
“Everything about the bb1 is radically new,” Gales said.
