Figures...just as we hit the post button on our previous article regarding Citroën's Frankfurt Motor Show surprise, the French carmaker dropped off the first official photos of its new concept model named Tubik.
As previously noted, the Tubik pays homage to the 1939 Tub van and its replacement, the 1948 Type H that was produced up until the beginning of the 1980s.
The Tubik serves as both a commercial van and a people carrier with the 4.8 meter long, 2.08m wide and 2.05m tall model providing comfortable space for nine passengers in three lounge-style seats, with the driver cocooned in a separated compartment.
Citroën says passengers can arrange the three rows of seats as they wish, since each seat is independent for maximum comfort. The first row of seats allows two people to sit facing either the road or the other passengers.
The middle row can seat up to three people or, alternatively, can be converted into a small table, be folded onto the last row to free up an area close to 2 square meters, or be folded out completely to create a meridienne-style seat.
Motivation is provided from the PSA Peugeot-Citroën group's new Hybrid4 full-hybrid diesel drivetrain.
We'll have more on the Tubik soon, but for now, scroll down to check out the official photos.

Fantastic.
Just plain cool, in soooooo many ways. Too bad it's just a concept.

Looks like the pig from Angry Birds from the front.

Exactly!!!! me and my wife just thought, that it looks like a PIG. And we just read it here... so funny
in fact it's more inspired by the citroen "type H". Wich is wrongly called by most people like the older "tube",but have a very distinctive "bulldog" face......
Yes, fantastic. Go ahead please. You will kill VW Caravelle and Multivan with this stuff.
