Several photos showing Citroen's new concept got leaked on the web, with the first public appearance scheduled to take place at the Frankfurt Auto Show next week. The so-called Revolte appeared on Facebook under the name Nouveau C3 which might be the first sign that the concept previews the next-generation C3 expected to be launched in a few years.
Details are obviously unknown at this point but we can see in the adjacent photos that the interior is somewhat futuristic, with the car boasting rear suicide doors and a sliding canvas roof. Furthermore, an interesting innovation is the addition of a front passenger seat that can be moved backwards.
As for the exterior appearance, the car has some features inspired from the DS3. Nevertheless, it features a new grille, small headlights and a lower front. Additionally, it comes with Michelin tires, but their size is yet to be disclosed.
The first teaser photo was officially released a few days ago and was only supposed to give us a glimpse into how the future hatchback will look like. As we said, the car will be fully revealed at the Frankfurt Auto Show so we're expecting the full list of specifications, along with new photos and details, next week. However, keep in mind that what we have here is still a concept, so some of its features are likely to be unavailable on the mass production model - if there will be one.
autoevolution will be attending the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, so stay tuned for some real up close and personal shots of these vehicles, as well as for first-hand details of the motorized contraptions.
