2011 Citroen C4

With the introduction of the new C4, Citroen has taken a more serious path in design over the funky and really rather stupid design of the S models.

The new Citroen C4 is supposed to be a family car with high quality and plenty of space – 4.33m (l), 1.79m (w), 1.49m (h) – which also has a lot in the way of soul and passion. It’s not yet another Euro box.

No more falling trims! The high quality of new C4’s interior finish is immediately apparent from the tactile soft-touch material on the top of the one-piece dashboard and the generous amounts of chrome around the dials and vents. The car also hosts a range of new and amazing features.

Selected models feature a new raised centre console – another first for the class – which houses a cooled and illuminated storage area that can take four 0.5-litre bottles.  Other available equipment includes a Connecting Box that provides Bluetooth® and a USB socket; front and rearparking sensors; parking space ‘gap’ measurement; Xenon dual-function directional headlamps and a tyre pressure monitoring system.
