The Citroën C-Métisse is a concept car produced by the French car manufacturer Citroën. It was first introduced in 2006 at the Paris autoshow. It has been stated that the reason for creating such a car was to show that a hybrid car can have the same performance as a gasoline- or diesel-powered car. The car is a 5-door 2+2 shooting-brake.

This is not the first time that Citroën has made a hybrid car - in 2005 they revealed the hybrid powered version of the Citroën C4. The car can use front wheel, rear wheel and all wheel drive depending on situation.

  • Engine: 2.7 L V6 diesel with 208 hp (155 kW) on the front axis and two electric wheel motors by TM4 Electrodynamic Systems with 20 hp (15 kW) on the rear axis
  • 0–100 km/h: 6.2 s
  • Top speed: 250 km/h (155 mph)
  • Fuel consumption: 6.5 litres per 100 kilometres (43 mpg‑imp; 36 mpg‑US)
