The bold new Citroën C1 and sensational new C4 Cactus – the latest additions to Citroën’s revitalised range – will make their UK premieres at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed.
On sale in the UK from October, the Citroën C4 Cactus signals the brand’s bold response to the changing needs of today’s car owners, offering a real alternative to the traditional compact hatchback with a fresh and distinctive approach, the company claims.
Visually striking, the C4 Cactus aims to stand out from the crowd with its concept car looks, crossover styling cues and customisable options, including a range of colours for the all-new Airbump panels. Simplicity and efficiency combine with practicality and low ownership costs in a unique blend of form and function, to offer more of what really counts.
Powered by the latest generation PureTech and BlueHDi engines, fuel economy is up to 91.1mpg with CO2 emissions from just 82g/km and overall running costs 20% lower than the benchmark in the compact hatchback segment.
Launching on July 1, the new Citroën C1 is the latest generation of the popular city car that has sold more than 760,000 examples worldwide since launch in 2005.
With a cheerful personality, attractive styling and useful technologies, the C1 aims to deliver an upbeat response to urban mobility requirements. The new version is available in both three and five-door, as a hatchback, or as a new open-top body style, named Airscape.
Among the best-in-class for fuel economy, with up to 74.3mpg on a combined cycle and just 88g/km of CO2, the new C1 will be priced from £8,245 to £11,935.
