Citroen C4 range was introduced with some good engines and couple of innovative and engineering led features. It has three different kinds of petrol and diesel engines to empower the new C4. The petrol engines are 1.4-litre and 1.6-litre while the diesel engine range has 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre engine delivering outputs of 90bhp to 155bhp. Even the weakest engine produces enough power for the car to get a respectable twist of speed.
Although the Citroen C4 includes good engine range but it is not a best small car on the market because it has some poor features along with good ones. This compact hatch is not good to drive, less roomy, long clutch pedal which has unnecessary distance to travel and semi automatic transmission system makes the smooth driving tricky. It is not a suitable choice for those people who want to drive at the maximum speed. But Citroen has some further reasons to be in the market and to square up the other same class vehicles; it has fuel economy and well controlled emission rates.
You can have normal auto transmission in the C4 but it will cost you more in terms of CO2 emissions and economy ...
... of the fuel in miles per gallon. You will likely pay more premiums. Although the Citroen is making changes very quickly in the robo-cluch boxes along with the modifications in the electronic systems but they are still tricky in the applications of these systems. C4 does not plaster itself in brilliance and glory in its class, ride feels bumpy and unstable while on poor roads and bumps can clunk in the cabin.
Citroen C4 has introduced micro hybrid engine 1.6-litre e-Hdi with great economy figures on the road, it produced 108bhp and torque of 199 lb-ft at 1750 rpm, and it gains the top speed of 122miles per hour which is not bad. It accelerates from 0 to 62 miles per hour in just 11.2 seconds. The fuel economy is also remarkable with the 60mpg in city area and 67mpg on average. The C4 is an economical car which has CO2 emissions of 109gm/km and it claims the VED band of “B” which means Citroen C4 has nothing to pay in tax for the first year.
C4 is suitable for long distance driving because it has good fuel economy, spacious boot space and comfortable. Although it’s interior is elegant and remarkably decorated but not a fun to drive as its rivals Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf because the rear seat leg room is condensed to create more boot space.
Citroen has a good safety system in its cars; it has a standard six airbags system to make C4 a safe car. The Euro NCAP awarded full five stars in its crash safety tests. Citroen has also introduce a new feature in the C4, named as “eTouch” service, which allows the driver to call and be located by the emergency services in the case of emergency or a break down or have an accident .
